“Strawberry crepe was AMAZING”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We absolutely love The Singletree Restaurant! We give you five stars without hesitation.

We were there the very first week Josh Weeks opened this establishment and have been loyal patrons ever since—sharing it with friends, cheering him on, and returning again and again.

Tonight’s meal was outstanding. The duck, ordered by my husband and son, was absolutely delicious, and my scallops were succulent and fabulous. Every visit reinforces why we love coming back.

Thank you for consistently delivering farm-to-table, thoughtfully prepared food in such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We will continue to support and recommend you.

Merry Christmas! 2025 🎄✨

“Visited Maggie Valley for the 1st time 6/10-613 & read reviews bout this place - figured it was worth a try & I will definitely agree ? hands down best food & service! Tend to have a wait however it’s worth the 20-30 min wait! Soo good we are there for breakfast everyday we stayed.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The pizza is outstanding—the cheese pizza had a thin crust with no flop, a crisp undercarriage, and great sauce flavor. Their specialty pizza combinations vary widely, and the weekly specials are always creative and delicious. The wings and salads are some of the best you’ll find in the area, and they always have an impressive, rotating selection of beers on tap. The atmosphere is relaxed and family friendly, with an outdoor patio, multiple large TVs for catching sports games, and even a couch that makes it feel like a comfortable hangout spot rather than just a restaurant. The staff are welcoming and the service is smooth. Whether you’re there for a casual family dinner, game day, or just great pizza and drinks, Doughboys delivers every time. Highly recommend. 🍕🍻”

“Beach Mountain Diner Waynesville is my favorite lunch spot! Great service from friendly staff with amazing food, especially the daily lunch specials served Monday through Friday. This is why it's loved by locals!”

“Great customer service Relaxing environment”

“We always stop here when visiting Maggie valley. They have the best scones, muffins, bagels and coffee. Super friendly!”

“im extremely picky with restaurants because I cook so good myself ... but I have absolutely zero complaints and ate every bite on my plate. I will be back for sure.... can't wait to come back , I think we just found our new favorite restaurant spot . I had the ahi tuna tacos and my husband had the BBQ quesadilla. we both swapped some of our meals with one another and loved both of them. took home a giant container of the chorizo queso too because it was so good ... and I almost never bring home extras from a restaurant but I had to have more of that dip. eat here , you won't be disappointed.”

“We were driving back from Cherokee and googled “sandwich shop” and found this hidden gem! We both had the grilled pimento cheese and bacon sandwich on sourdough bread! It was amazing. Staff was helpful in recommending different items. The place is decorated with a lot of unique decor. The place is clean. Extremely friendly staff. The prices are very fair for what you get. Highly recommend and we will be back.
Thank you”

“Lovely little coffee shop. Super friendly, reasonably priced. Great cortado. My go to spot when passing thru Canton. Go around the corner to Papertown Records while you’re at it.”

“Talk about some home cooking! Our food was amazing and hit the spot.”

“My husband and I had a wonderful breakfast this morning as we do any time we visit here, the waitress and staff are all friendly and welcoming. The food is always delicious.”

“We made the HUGE mistake of skipping Grateful Table initially because my other half was craving Mexican food—let’s just say that decision led us straight into a flavorless disaster at Three Compas. But after that major letdown, we wandered over to Grateful Table Cafe & Provisions... and WOW. What an absolute 1000% improvement! Though we didn’t sit down for a full meal (this time!), we picked up a few goodies that completely redeemed our taste buds. First, the homemade molasses and ginger cookies—soft like pillows, perfectly spiced, and honestly tasted like they came straight from heaven. There was a subtle hint of clove, one of my favorite spices, and it made the whole experience feel cozy and special. Then came the duck fat caramels. As a duck owner, I was beyond curious—and while I’ll admit I prefer traditional caramels, these were rich, unique, and absolutely worth the try. They even sparked some ideas for experimenting in my own kitchen. We also grabbed some salami, and let me tell you: it was out. of. this. world. Packed with flavor, clearly made with care, and easily one of the best cured meats I've had in a long time. We *will* be back—especially in hopes of snagging some of that homemade bread we sadly missed this time (it was sold out, which honestly tells you everything you need to know). You can taste the quality in every product they sell, and it’s clear they’re using top-notch ingredients that make a real culinary impact. Totally worth every penny. Grateful Table, thank you for turning our day around—we can’t wait to come back!”

“Delicious Dinner tonight , excellent service , highly recommend the chicken parm”

“We wanted a local breakfast restaurant during our visit to Maggie Valley, and found The Buttered Biscuit. Everything is made from scratch and the Biscuits are huge! Will go again no doubt! True Southern Breakfast!”

“Awesome food and awesome staff.”

“Totally bodacious hot dogs. Yes way!”

“Very relaxed beach burger stand vibes that delivers not just on taste, but on quality as well. One of the best burgers I've had in WNC and I've had a lot of them. Get a shaved ice after to really drive home the nostalgic summer feel. Thanks for the great lunch Gigis!”

“It's our HOMETOWN "Go To" for meeting up with friends or just coffee in a corner…the owners are WONDERFUL & the love they have for what they do & the people they serve TRULY shows!.”

“Excellent service. Best yeast rolls I have ever had! Ample portions, appropriately priced. The 4 stars for atmosphere is due to how loud it was in the restaurant. I couldn't hear my husband from just across the table.”

“amazing calzones and pizza and always great service”

“Been wanting to try this place for a while and FINALLY stopped. It was amazing and I’m mad at myself for not trying it sooner. I also wish I would have ordered more than I did. I will definitely be back!”
