Definitely worth the drive! The food was fantastic and a wide selection of beers. We went with the brown ale and enjoyed it immensely. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and delicious. Service was great! Atmosphere was relaxed and family friendly. Great outdoor seating. Will be back with the puppers, they will love it.

My one complaint is the animals. There was a hugh German shepherd dog with his family. He was very antsy and bark. They fed him from their plate. Seems like almost everyone had a dog with them. I noticed a worker petting him. Did they wash afterwards? Big question. I know I'm outnumbered on this subject but its getting ridiculous. That's my review.
I enjoyed the burger. It was very tasty and quite large. The entire facility was formerly the TVA Fisheries building. Beautiful architecture. If you are visiting the Museum of Appalachia or the Norris area in general, this is a great place to have a meal. A nice laid back atmosphere that makes you glad you skipped the fast food joints over by the Interstate.Parking: Plenty of parking spots available.

I liked the many choices of craft beers, but the appetizer sample platter was a little more spicy than I expected. There is also a nice outside patio to dine.

I have ordered two burgers there now and they will only make them well done and they are a dried up rubber tire.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Clinch River Brewing recently and felt compelled to share my positive impressions. The burger and fries were not only delicious but also exceeded my expectations in terms of quality. The attention to detail in crafting these classic dishes was evident, showcasing a commitment to culinary excellence.Beyond the food, the service at Clinch River Brewing was exceptional. The staff was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience. It's always refreshing to encounter such a high level of customer service.The atmosphere of the brewery added to the overall enjoyment of the visit. The ambiance was welcoming and comfortable, creating a perfect setting for a relaxed meal. Whether you're stopping by for lunch or dinner, the inviting atmosphere at Clinch River Brewing contributes to a memorable outing.I particularly recommend Clinch River Brewing to those visiting Norris Dam State Park. It's not just a place to eat and drink; it's an integral part of the local experience. The proximity to the state park makes it an ideal spot to unwind and refuel after exploring the natural beauty of Norris Dam.In conclusion, Clinch River Brewing stands out not only for its delectable food but also for its outstanding service and inviting atmosphere. It's a gem worth discovering, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a satisfying dining experience in the Norris Dam State Park area.

Great local brewery that we love to support! We've been going here for 4 years. It has since changed ownership in Dec '22 and they are making positive changes! The new owners have really done a great job! You do order food and beer at the registers, no wait staff but they do bring out your food and check on you, downstairs/upstairs/front porch/outdoor patio areas to dine, dog friendly, live music on weekends, koi pond, and tasty cajun inspired food. We love going here, the staff is very friendly, and it's always a wonderful experience!
