Wild Plum Tea Room
555 Buckhorn Rd, Gatlinburg, TN
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Gatlinburg's Arts and Crafts Community, Wild Plum Tea Room is a beloved neighborhood gem that's earned loyal devotion over decades with its made-from-scratch food and carefully crafted tea selections, from traditional hot and cold brews to specialty matcha. The intimate, slow-paced atmosphere strikes that perfect balance—thoughtful enough for special occasions and reservations, yet welcoming enough for families and their furry friends to linger over pastries and light meals. It's the kind of place where the personal touches matter, from the chef's unique preparations to servers who genuinely make you feel cared for.”

What an absolutely delightful little place. All the food is divine, made in house from scratch and you can tell. The tea is amazing, cold or hot. The plates are well portioned and oh so tasty, and the atmosphere and service were truly wonderful. 10/10 will definitely come again next time we're in Gatlinburg.
This place should have 5 stars!! I've been eating here for important events for over 20 years!! My family introduced me to this place when I was in college. Since then, my husband and I go. The food is always OUTSTANDING!! Being an artsy tomboy, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the atmosphere!! It hits my dainty girly button and the tomboy finds the rugged outside compelling!! I5 may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I recommend it to everyone!! And, it's located on the Arts and Crafts Loop!!
What a hidden jewel! Wonderful restaurant/tea room off the beaten path. Krissy was our server and was wonderful! We started with the Sherry tomato bisque and it was outstanding. Then we had the lobster pie, delicious. They also serve Wild plum muffins with their homemade Wild plum jelly, soooo good! They only serve beer but you can bring your own bottle of wine. They are open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday so I recommend you make a reservation. You will be very happy when you dine here💕
Such a cool place located in the Arts and Crafts Community!! You have to have reservations, understandably so. The waiter we had was so sweet and phenomenal. They take the time to personally craft your food and it’s a whole experience! It’s so serene and calming being there for a brunch with friends and family. Everything was delicious and unique from start to finish. It was so worth it, and we will definitely be back!!
This experience was really cool, super cute and special for couples, we loved everything about this place, the waitress was very good and hard working, and the chef prepared some unique delicious food! Our favorites were the salmon burger, hot brie cheese platter, and the apple cake was one of the most amazing desserts we have ever tasted. The only thing we had that was so so was the beet salad. The staple plum tea here is addictive, but just remember that is the only tea they have (no tea varieties which confused us a bit). Overall it was wonderful and we would go back if we were ever in the area again.
