"3526 Parkway, Suite 4, Pigeon Forge 865-365-1700www.facebook.com/pg/SmokiesCubancafepf/. This locally owned gem serves up authentic Cuban food for both breakfast and brunch. You are sure to find all your favorites including Cuban sandwiches, plantains, and yucca fries."

"Smokies Cuban Cafe is the only place in the Smokies where you’ll find authentic Cuban food that represents generations of family cooking. The small, intimate setting is a backdrop to some of the best food in Pigeon Forge. Talk to anyone who knows Cuban food."

"A great place to go for something sweet is Mad Dog’s Creamery. They are one of the only dog-friendly places in the area, and you’ll find all kinds of great flavors of ice cream. Get a classic, such as chocolate or vanilla, or try one of their signature flavors, such as white chocolate raspberry or yellow brick road."

"Both locations offer a wide range of desserts, prompting a definite struggle for indecisive types. For many, the treat of choice is dictated by the time of day: donuts for breakfast and ice cream later on. Otherwise, your best bet may involve enjoying ice cream in the store and saving your donut for later."

"Mad Dog’s Creamery and Donuts is the ultimate dessert destination!. This great shop offers incredible ice cream cones, soft serve, sundaes, banana splits, and milkshakes. With 24 flavors to choose from, you’re guaranteed to find a new favorite (ours is Smoky Mountain Fudge)."

"This small little eatery has gained quite a bit of notice from locals and tourists alike since it opened a few years ago. The Lil Black Bear Cafe is a small business open for breakfast and lunch, but it’s a big hit with the kids and worth including as one of the top places to eat in Pigeon Forge for the little ones. The owner is very caring and lets kids do some coloring to be featured on their ​Facebook page​ as members of the Color the Bear Club."

"A favorite for both breakfast and lunch, guests rave about the pancakes, which are thankfully served all day!. Head on over to their Facebook page to read all of the numerous reviews citing them as, “the best pancakes I’ve ever had.” Now that’s a good pancake!. If you hate pancakes (what?!), the cafe also serves a variety of other American breakfast foods, as well as soups, salads, and yummy baked goods."

"This small, family-owned restaurant has built a loyal following for its super friendly service, mouthwatering food, and extremely reasonable prices. Guests will find a great selection of omelets, salads, soups, sandwiches, and more all-American fare. Standout menu items include the biscuits and gravy, fried bologna sandwich, and the patty melt."

"Tucked away in scenic Wears Valley, Elvira’s Cafe offers mouthwatering home-cooked meals. A native of Siberia, Elvira fell in love with East Tennessee as a student, and after years of hard work, she opened her own restaurant in 2012. For breakfast, Elvira’s Cafe serves all of your favorite dishes, including french toast, biscuits and gravy, country ham, and a variety of crepes."

"Not only does this Wears Valley restaurant offer a menu with plenty of variety, but it also has a real, hands-on feel and has earned a good reputation with locals and visitors alike. For a classic country breakfast, be sure to try Elvira's: Hotcakes, bacon, eggs, hash browns, and biscuits & gravy. They even offer sweet & savory crepes!"

"Elvira’s | Townsend – crepes and pancakes! Burgermaster Townsend – great burgers, hot dogs, and soft serve. Located right next to the Smoky Mountain River Rat, so it’s awesome for when you finish tubing!"

"This fun buffet offers all-you-can-eat pizza, pasta, salad, and dessert for extremely reasonable prices. Guests will find a wide variety of pizza toppings, with everything from Ham & Cheddar to Mac & Cheese in the mix. Make sure you try some of CiCi’s irresistible cinnamon rolls when you visit!"

The lunch/dinner lineup runs the gamut, from white truffle fries and a house salad to veggie burgers and a sweet potato kale wrap."

"Lots of wonderful items to choose here from this downtown staple since 1980. Start with flash fried brussels sprouts or white truffle fries. Their fall/winter menu features butternut squash ravioli, curried vegetable bowl, hoppin’ john, and sides like roasted beets and collard greens with hot pepper vinegar."
