5 Best American Restaurants near Mammoth Cave

“We left Gatlinburg this morning from our vacation and this was our next destination. It was five hours of driving and we did not stop to get anything to eat along the way. We had a stretch for about an hour and 20 minutes where we did not even see a restaurant. We were desperately in need of something to eat and that’s when I pulled up and realized that they have food here at the NP. We just figured we might as well wait and eat here and make sure we’re here on time because I always like to be early when we have a tour paid for. The food was pretty good and the staff were friendly. There are options on the menu here sounded better to us than the other place to eat, but that’s just because we ate most of the stuff on that other menu all week. It definitely hit the spot.“

“Absolutely worth the drive. Burgers awesome ( best I've ever had.) Hand cut fries, Peach milk shakes Wow. Friendly service. 100% recommend.“

“I had the buffet and the food was excellent! The roast had big slices of carrots, small potatoes, tender flavorful meat, My granddaughter had the Ribeye and loved it. The salad bar was really good. I would love to know how they fixed the corn. It was delicious! Stacie our waitress was great! She seemed to have several jobs and was handling them well. We will stop thee again!“
