9 Best Coffee Shops near Bryson City

“I stop annually when I pass thru the area.“

“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!“

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

“We stopped in for a dessert after a day of site seeing and the staff was extremely nice and very friendly! It was very pleasant to stop there!“

“We absolutely loved every coffee we tried, this will definitely be a go to for coffee when in Cherokee every trip! Service, price, and quality spot on.“

“Sugar bears has the best ice cream and espresso. The owners are so kind and wonderful people! A must stop during your visit in Cherokee.“

“I swear I think that was the BEST cup of coffee I've ever had!!! It was rich and smooth! I can't wait to go back to Cherokee, so I go by there to get a cup of coffee.☕️💜“

“We stopped in for lunch and very much enjoyed our sandwiches. The Philly cheese steak and BBQ chicken sandwich (which was more like a panini) were delicious and we highly recommend them! We also enjoyed the “white trash” snack mix we took home for a treat to enjoy later. We will definitely stop by again when we are in town.“

“I very seldom eat at McDonald's, but I was wanting some fries and chicken nuggets for dinner. I usually know what to expect. They are generally good, however, they must've changed something because they were absolutely delicious today! Even better than usual. The breading on the nuggets was surprisingly crispy, almost flaky. Very good! The fries were nice and crisp as well. Best meal I've gotten from a McDonald's.“
