“Great cakes, pies, and ice cream. This is the place to stop and get a dessert.

But check the hours or call to see if they’re open before you go. When we were here in June 2024, they were only open Saturday and Sundays from 1 - 5 pm.

Oh and great antiques and homemade soaps.

Also, they only accept cash or check!“

Eseeola Lodge American

“It was absolutely amazing and peaceful. Best message I have ever had at the Spa.

Rooms: Clean and accommodating. Colonial charm.

Walkability: Everything was within walking distance of 5 to 7 minutes.

Food & drinks: The food was amazing. We tried several items and enjoyed everything. I do not typically order steak as I always seemed to get disappointed. I had the Prime NY Strip, and it was perfectly cooked and as tender and juicy as it should be. Absolutely fantastic!“

“I have only been here for the breakfast buffets and then today with just a regular breakfast. I love this place when I come to visit my daughter. For those that wrote bad reviews, please understand small businesses go through hard times especially after trying to recover after Hurricane Helene. You are no longer in the big city. These places are gems if you give them a chance. If you don’t want to, go have have a Dulcolax sandwich from McDonalds“

“Stopped by Town Tavern in Banner Elk and tried the chili dog—absolutely delicious! The chili had just the right amount of spice, and it paired perfectly with the juicy hot dog for a classic comfort food experience. The tavern itself had a cozy, laid-back atmosphere that made it a great place to unwind. The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the welcoming vibe. Whether you’re passing through or a local, Town Tavern is a solid spot to satisfy a comfort food craving.“

“I had the pizza, which, when fresh and right from oven, was the best I've had in the US. Not kidding. Only the one I fix, my father makes, or ones I've had in Italy were better. It took like 20-30 minutes so u know it was fresh. They have a thin and thick crust available. There is a Subway and McDonald's right across the street. Just don't. Support local business and eat here. The sandwiches and burgers others were eating looked good too. Highly recommend.“

“We have been here a couple times. Once last year on our visit for a women's retreat - had the hog rolls, and omg...that alone - and all the sauces...so good, be sure to ask to try them. And then I brought my husband back and again - the hog rolls are the winner...with the something stinger sauce? anyway - I agree with whomever said the young gal cared more about her phone, that was true the first time we were there, but seemed to me that they got the message b/c the last time we were in - which was March, she was reading a book. This is a family owned place and I am impressed at their drive for customer service. This is a hard business and a super hard time to be in the restaurant biz. More people should give this a try!“
