17 Best American Restaurants in Bristol

“Always happy to visit 620 State for their sushi or grilled salmon!“

“We went in for a good ol'hamburger and we sure got that. It's a small neighborhood place. It looked to be in an old gas station. They served Breakfast all day. It was just a good simple place to eat and was very good. Everyone was so nice.“

“Best catfish ever! Great place to eat.“

“If you're having a bad day or good day, it'll only get better if you have a meal with Andrew and the staff. The food is amazing and they make you feel like family. I've been eating in this little place since it was Rex Hotdogs (30 yrs or so ago)and so glad it's still one of the best places in Bristol to eat.“

“Service and food were both top notch. I ordered the grilled tuna sandwich, and it was exceptional. I expected tuna salad on toast, but was served a large tuna steak on a bun. It was so big I cut it in two, with the intent to take half home. Nope. I ate it all.“

“Pretty good course. However, I would not rate it as a must play. Some challenging holes and some fun to play. The fairways are not plush and the greens were nothing to write home about. This place is nicer than most local courses but definitely not a top tier course.“

“We are new to the area and really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was awesome!! We got the Reuben (YUM - packed with meat), chicken quesadillas (super tasty and large portion) and bacon cheeseburger with fries - fresh and juicy. I highly recommend - the prices were not bad either.“

“We absolutely LOVE Drakes!! We went yesterday (Wednesday), around 2pm and service was fast. I don’t remember our waiters name, but she had tattoos and was extremely pretty. She was so wonderfully sweet!! She took the time to explain the menu, what she recommended and to tell us about their ingredients. Def recommend Drakes in Bristol, TN!!“

“Jeremy needs to be given a raise ! As a business owner , I know how hard it is to find good people that put the customer first, and this guy knows customer service ! Ordered take out, he stopped by to make sure I was taken care of and immediately offered my son and I drink on the house just because ! It’s the little things that will you set you apart and he’s got what it takes!“

“My fiancee and I love, love, love this place! Today made our 3rd time there. The food is so darn good and the loaded tater tots are the best we have ever had. We have not been disappointed with any of the sandwiches we have tried so far. The Cuban is our favorite sandwich and the Bam sauce is our pick. Highly recommend. And on a side note, the staff have always been friendly and the bathrooms have always been clean. I swear they have the thickest and softest toilet paper I have ever used in a restaurant. Charmin quality. 😊 We love this place.“

“Tried for the first time tonight! So good and very reasonable to feed my 3 big guys and myself! The pulled pork is good even without the sauce but the sauce is great! The Carolina vinegar based sauce is good too! The beans and tater tots were great! Great option for those crazy evenings with 3 different sports going on and a hungry family on a budget.“

“Best bagels and coffee 😋🤤🥯“

“One of the best Waffle Houses I have ever eat at for sure 💯 I had the BEST waffle I have ever had my whole life so when I tell ya that you need to give this place a try you won't regret it!! Because they have the best food in town and one heck of a cook in the a.m. hours... Don't forget to stop by people and thank you Waffle House for the best tasting food!! 😋“

“I had a really pleasant time hanging out here with some friends recently. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the menu had plenty of options that hit the spot for everyone at the table. It is the kind of reliable, relaxed place that is perfect for a casual dinner when you just want to kick back and enjoy some comfort food.“

“We for first time at Waffle house Bristol! We were Very Pleased and we will return this wk as we're visiting for a couple days. Our waitress was kind very professional 🤗💐C you soon. Oh let's not forget the chef! Food was Great 👍😃“

“BEst bar in Bristol hands down!!! such a great venue. the new side with the club and Dj Ghost playing is the best. would give him a 10 out of 10. bartenders are awesome!!!!! will be the only place we go from now on!!!! go check them out“

“This location is clean every time I eat here. The staff are very friendly, and management is very attentive. The cooks do a wonderful job, and I like the food. I never see anyone wasting their time. I have had to wait to be seated before, as I understand the host helps with TOGO orders and might be bagging someone’s food, but he never keeps me more than a couple of minutes. He is a very polite gentleman. Overall, this is a clean and welcoming place to eat!“
