The Old Mill Pottery House Café

Update: we came back today (8/7/22) for brunch and just when I thought this place couldn?t get any better it did. The Truly Southern Eggs Benedict was FABULOUS! We are here on vacation and this is THE BEST place we have eaten at during our trip. Thefood was delicious and the portions were very generous. Very reasonably priced as well. We will 100% be back on our next visitto Pigeon Forge! Pictured is there open-faced roast beef.

This is a nice restaurant to visit if you're in Pigeon Forge, TN! We went last week for our summer family vacation! The staff was very courteous and our waitress was very sweet! The food was good too! I ordered the Shrimp and Grits and everything wasflavorful, hot and delicious! I usually don't order a dish like that at a restaurant because so many places get it wrong thatI'd rather do it myself at home..the right way! ...But this restaurant got it right! We enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant aswell! It had a 1940's type of aesthetic to it...it reminded me of sitting on your screened in back porch on a hot summer daywith a tall pitcher of lemonade just relaxing! They were playing Billie Holiday quite a bit at the time that we were there andthat helped add to the overall ambiance! They have a bake shop on the other side where you can buy baked goods, etc. They alsohave a beautiful courtyard type area outside with a gazebo and a fountain! Some really great natural backdrops to take someamazing pics and it was nice to sit inside and eat while looking out of their picture window at all the beauty in the courtyard! Since it is summer, they gave us the option to eat inside or outside but it was so unbearably hot down there in early July thatwe chose to sit inside with the air conditioning! Driving and parking in the general area of this restaurant is prettytight..everything is sort of piled on top of each other in this particular area so we had a bit of a hard time getting in andout because it's so congested in that part of town! Overall, we enjoyed everything about this gem!

A wonderful atmosphere, food was great and the bread was to die for. Chairs were comfortable, and our waiter was very attentive.

Fabulous meal and we will return! We had the loaded chips for an appetizer and wow! Crispy potatoes LOADED with lots of bacon and cheese. Very good! I ordered the chicken stir fry, and it was great! Full of good veggies and great sauce mixed with rice. I would definitely order it again. My daughter got the daily special, which were filet kabobs. The steak wasn't great...I guess that's why it only cost $19.99. She couldn't really eat it. However, her Caesar salad was better than most. My husband ordered the shrimp and catfish. He liked the shrimp and sweet potato but said the catfish was way too dry. However, he is very choosy because he's from Mississippi and used to eating catfish their way. Like I said, we were pleased overall and will return.

Best restaurant in Pigeon Forge. We tried chicken gumbo and grits and french onion soup and absolutely loved it. Our server Quanah was amazing!
