Absolutely our new favorite restaurant when we are in Pigeon Forge. Excellent food, beautiful and unique atmosphere (on the river with spacious outdoor seating), and exceptional service! Stopped in for lunch and almost went back there for dinner the same day.
The Italian sub was fantastic. The chicken fingers, tater tots and the ranch dressing was really good. We will definitely be back. We been coming for years and never noticed this little place. You all should try it! You won’t be sorry.
The Abbey catered our wedding reception, and we couldn't have been happier! The food was absolutely fantastic – our guests raved about it – and the service was top-notch. They were professional, attentive, and made the entire process seamless. We highly recommend them for any event!
