11 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Bryson City

“Awesome views, great service by Jack and great food. Our drinks - Piña Colada and old fashion were super delish and to find a great tasting piña colada can be a challenge but this was amazing. The feta artichoke dip was super good and great chicken Alfredo. We finished it up with a yummy cream brûlée.“

“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!“

“Had a few beers and met some locals in the process, sitting at the downstairs bar. Great staff and great customers! I had a German Pilsner, a seasonal porter, and a really good sour (blueberry cheesecake maybe?). They were all excellent. The upstairs with the rooftop looked pretty cool. I ran up there just to see what it was like. The vibe was a bit more lively up there for sure. Great location right on the river in the heart of Bryson City.“

“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.“

“We had a lovely lunch today- the food was delicious and our waitress Cynthia was very sweet and helpful!“

“We’ve been coming here for about seven years now, and it’s always been one of our favorite spots. The food and service are consistently great, and you can tell they really care about making sure customers have a good experience. Over the years, we’ve noticed little improvements that just make it even better. On our most recent visit, we even got a tour of the brew room, which was a cool bonus. We had mozzarella sticks, a baked pretzel, a kids cheeseburger, the Bryson burger, spicy chicken sandwich, and a plain fried chicken sandwich—everything was fresh and tasted great. Tony, Mona, and Rachel were all super friendly and welcoming. We left full, happy, and even with a shirt and hat. Just a solid place all around.“
