As you ride all the rides at Silver Dollar City, explore the hometown of your favorite country singer, the inimitable Dolly Parton, and take in the view from 407 feet in the sky inside the Gatlinburg Space Needle, you may find yourself feeling a combination of hunger pangs, exhaustion, and an unwillingness to join the crowds at the popular restaurants in Gatlinburg. You could fix a meal or even pop a frozen pizza into the oven in your Cabin Rental Store country escape, or you could pick up a takeout meal from any of these local restaurants. We’re thinking the choice is easy and you’ll agree after you try out the restaurants listed in this guide!
Big Daddy’s Pizzeria, 714 River Road
Take-out pizza has to be the best meal idea no matter where you are, but the ones served at Big Daddy’s take the humble pie to new levels of greatness! Offering sandwiches, salads, and of course, delicious thin crust pizzas baked in a woodfire oven, this choice is sure to be one your entire family can get behind!
Hot Diggity Dawg, 968 Parkway
While the common hot dog isn’t the healthiest of choices, sometimes no other meal will do—especially when on vacation. Hot Diggity Dawg is one of our favorite ways to get in our fix! Inexpensive and delicious, we suggest you stop by their food cart at least once during your Gatlinburg getaway.
Flapjack’s Pancake Cabin, 478 E Parkway
Not all carry-out meals will be dinner. On those mornings you just can’t convince your family to get out of bed, a visit to Flapjack’s and a carry-out breakfast will be the perfect way to start a lazy day in! Famous for their pancakes, of course, every breakfast is hearty and delicious. If you’re really hungry, the Barn Buster will satisfy the largest of appetites!
The Three Jimmy’s, 1359 E Parkway
We have to admit that missing out on an evening out at the Three Jimmy’s would be a shame, but if you just can’t picture yourself dining in public, the food served here is equally delicious at home as it is in the restaurant. Offering a variety of foods that range from pizza to prime rib, it’s a great place to choose when everyone in your family has different ideas of the meal they want to eat!
Most Restaurants Offer Carry-Out
It’s true that you can enjoy a delicious carry-out meal in pretty much every restaurant in Gatlinburg, but none of the meals will be as tasty if you aren’t staying in a Cabin Rental Store vacation sanctuary! Contact us to reserve your stay today or book online.
