Crema's Take
“Nestled in Gatlinburg's Wears Valley with a charming log cabin aesthetic, this spot has become a beloved local secret for travelers and regulars alike who appreciate unhurried mornings and hearty, genuinely excellent food that keeps people coming back for both breakfast and lunch. The patio seating and ample parking make it an ideal gathering place for families and friends looking to linger over coffee without the chain-restaurant feeling, and staff here seem genuinely welcoming even when you arrive near closing time.”

We were from out of town visiting for a little post Christmas trip! We were starving and noticed this place and decided to try it!! We walked in right at closing time and had no idea and the staff bent over backwards to make sure we were seated, fed, and not treated as an inconvenience!! Get the Grown up Grilled Cheese! It was phenomenal! The owner is incredibly sweet and we watched her single-handedly checked in with each of her team members!!
We have been wanting to try this place for some time now. Drive by all the time. Located on Wears valley rd, not far from PF. Nice little place with a log cabin feel. Offers indoor, as well as patio dining. We were seated right away and our waitress was very polite and attentive. She placed our orders and the food was ready in a few minutes. Nice and hot. My wife had the chicken crepe and I had a Reuben. The food was excellent and we enjoyed the views of the valley. I highly recommend. One day we will try. Breakfast.
This is the absolute best of all the small town restaurants I know. There is a skylift, a store next door and the food is honestly the best I have had!! I sincerely mean that. We had lunch and breakfast and it can’t be beat. Go to the top of the skylift sit awhile and enjoy the views. Complimentary moon pies and water await
While there is a lot of parking this place is always busy so it might take a second to find an empty spot or you might have to walk up the path aways. Service is quick as we were able to be seated right away. Gail did a great job getting our orders and drinks and checking on us The food was good, we had waffles and chicken because we really wanted breakfast but they only serve to 11 and we arrived after 1😞(good night).

Located in Wears Valley, this restaurant is the best kept little secret from those who frequent Pigeon Forge. We can't say enough about this place! It was so good, we ate dinner there and then went back the next morning for breakfast. I got the chicken and waffles that were to die for each meal! The waffles were so fluffy but yet like candied because they use pearl sugar in their batter. Total game changer! The chicken tenders were lightly breaded but perfect. They serve them with a slight spicy honey to drizzle over them. The chicken drizzled with the honey along with a bite of the waffle is like heaven in your mouth! The hashbrown casserole was delicious as well! My husband got meatloaf with buttered carrots, that were in balls (we still can't figure that one out!) With broccoli casserole that was also delicious. For breakfast he ordered the Mountain Man omelet that was filled with nothing but goodness and topped with sausage grave and came with a fluffy homemade biscuit. The staff was so friendly and welcoming and the views were gorgeous! This will be one place we will not miss on our trips to Pigeon Forge from now on.
