Restaurants in Bryson City

“Great service, delicious food.”

“The food brings me back to Oahu…only better. The location is perfect (in Cherokee and Bryson City). The service is spot on and the portion size is excellent.”

“I and my family have been eating here for almost 30 years, and I have tried almost every menu item, the best Pizza, better than NY,NY. The Sherpa is always amazing and new Onion Rings with Whiskey Sauce is the best. No matter what you are doing Whitewater, Hiking, Mntn Biking or just visiting the food is always worth it.”

“If you're ever in Bryson City you must get the Friiters At Honey Bear's Cupcakery!!”

“They have the best skinny margaritas in Bryson City, and we know because we tested skinny margaritas at all three this past Saturday! It's funny how testing them all in one day made it a clear as a side by side test. Hands down!4 Queens had the best and the view from the patio was just icing in the cake!”

“Closed Friday 1/2 and Saturday 1/3 for anyone wondering. Will reopen Tuesday 1/5.

The sandwiches are incredible… drove 4 hours to come here… only for it to be closed 🥲

Hope everyone is alright!”

“Stopped by Mountain Layers Brewing and really liked the space. They have a big beer selection and a lot of seating upstairs, which is nice if it’s busy. Part of the outdoor area is heated and partially enclosed, so it’s comfortable even when it’s cooler out. I had one of their hazy IPAs (I think it was called Isolated Mind) and it was really good. Overall a great spot to hang out and enjoy a beer.”

“My wife and I have been here four or five times in the past couple years when we have visited Bryceson city and every time has been great food, carne asada is my favorite and the service is always very friendly and fast, I wish the Mexican restaurants in Florida were this good.”

“Wife and I took the GSMR and when we returned we decided to give it a try. Sign said “Best Burger in Town “ so we got a Mushroom Burger and a Slaw Burger with Fries and Tots! Burgers were cooked perfectly and the Fries and Tots were super crispy and Hot!!! Young Man brought it to the Table and was very polite!! Highly Recommended Support Local Business!!!”

“amazing food with a personal touch. the steak nachos at the food truck are the best I've had.”

“Service was quick & efficient. My biscuits were good and the lady working the window even gave my puppers a treat! Highly recommend this Bojangles and next time I'm in Bryson City, I'll stop by for breakfast!”

“I love to eat at Iron Wok Asian Cuisine because they have a great food 🍲 and good quality food and good prices”

“On a couples trip to the mountains we had the pleasure of eating at Tommy's Paradise. The food was amazing and the staff was friendly as well. The Pesto Chicken Pizza was so great. We will be sure to visit again when we return to the area.”

“we stopped in to try the bbq and eat by the river and found a true gem! The Bar-B-Que Wagon was super clean, 100 sani rating, and the food was great. We eat bbq all over and would rate this spot as top tier all day!”

“It’s on my Bucket List for sure!”

“The staff and atmosphere was great. All the goodies we brought home tasted wonderful, those pecan pie bars were delicious! This will be our first stop next time we visit”

“This is a wonderful place! Simple fare that exceeds expectations, excellent coffees, and a great experience!”

“My family and are I are extra thankful this year for the kindness and generosity of Jeff and Pam Pulley, the owners of Mountain Perks Espresso Bar & Cafe. Two weeks ago, my kids and I came to Bryson City to ride the Polar Express train with friends. GPS said I was only .5 of a mile away from my destination, but my car got stuck on the rocky road on a very steep mountain and I had no cell service. Turns out I inadvertently got lost very high up on the mountain (later we would found out I was 20 minutes away from the house we were staying). My kids and I walked to the nearest house that had a light on, and by the grace of God, Jeff and Pam took us in and helped us. Jeff and his neighbor, Keith, also got my car out of the ditch I backed into, and my kids and I were still able to make the train ride. Jeff and Pam didn’t have to open up their door and help three complete strangers, but they did with open arms. Jeff and Keith didn’t have to get my car out, but they did. Let this story remind you that there are truly amazing people in this world; Jeff and Pam (and Keith) are angels walking among us! My kids and I visited Jeff and Pam at their coffee shop the next morning, and let me just say, their food and coffee are delicious! I highly recommend going there if you are ever in Bryson City, and they are located right across from the train station!”

“Staff was very friendly and helpful. Didn't catch any names, but really appreciated their work. Food was well stocked and fresh. Sandwich was well crafted. Everything was clean. Couldn't ask for more.”

“Had lunch there today. Our server was Toni. She did a terrific job & checked back often. My husband had the Hawaiian pizza & I had the lasagna. Food was way better here than at the Italian restaurant in town.”

“What an incredibly fine restaurant. The service and food IS AMAZING! If you like eggplant parmesean THIS is where you can find the very best ever! I make a darn good one but Pasquale made mine look like dog food. The sauce is a heavenly experience. the plate cooked to perfection . I give this place in Bryson City ,NC. 5 ☆”

“We were in town for Polar Express and found the food in the area left a lot to be desired. We ended up here on a whim because my kids love Mexican food, and it was probably our best meal while in town. Service was quick, no wait, and the food was good. Our only hangup is that we ordered traditional chicken tacos, and were brought pork. It was fine with me, but we did get the kids swapped out for Chicken. The downside was it took quite a while, my husband and I were finished eating before the kids food came out. Regardless everyone's food was very good. After eating a lot of mediocre meals in town my kids were thrilled with their lunch here.”

“We came up for a pre party for my little sisters wedding and had the time of our lives! The wait staff was amazing considering we had a party of over 30 people. The wings were fantastic and the beer selection was great! Live music was the cherry on top! We definitely recommend and hope to come back soon!”

“Service, food, atmosphere was nice, Bailey and Kai were our servers and went out of their way to make sure our visit was enjoyable. Will stop by again when in the area.”
