    We were driving on the local highway and stop near by the gas station to spot this donut store next to it. We decided to explore the store and take a break. Our decision did not disappoint us. The clerk is very friendly to show us the fresh donut they have. They have cronut. I got the pumpkin cronut is delicious. Among the donut we also got cake donuts, special donuts off from menu. All of them are delicious. Price is reasonable. I hope they open in Tampa. But that not going to happen. We enjoy that while we are here. They also have boba drinks that you can select. Overall they are very good. Best donut in the area. Love the fresh donut.

    Okay... doughnuts are important. They are necessary for survival! But when you're traveling around the country you can't ALWAYS find the very best of everything - unless, maybe, you're just lucky - like we were!! OMG! Fireworks!! Stars!! Trumpets sounding!! - How much do we offer them to travel around with us?? Does everyone HAVE a price?? Anyway, while in Knoxville... WE are only eating doughnuts here - we've tried ALL the rest, and we've settled on the very BEST!! - - of course! Their doughnuts are light and fresh with NO oily aftertaste!! The owners are amazing - doughnuts!! it's what they do!! The son makes the best mocha coffee in the world, too... if you're interested! Ya gotta get there early, though, if you want things like Bear Claws - doughnuts fly out of that place as if they have wings! You can special order, too! You'd never know, by looking at the small shop attached to a filling station, that heaven was waiting for you just a few steps aways - - - sigh.

    In six words: I'm In Love With This Place. If those 6 words aren't enough, I'll elaborate: These donuts are buckin' good! A friend introduced me to this place several months ago and I've been here now probably 10 times, usually around 9-10am. If they were open after 5pm it would probably be my favorite dinner spot and my doctor would curse me. But all in moderation, I try to pop in a few times a month, jump-start my blood sugar and feel good about supporting a local owner-operated business. THE STAFF: For a seemingly small little operation, I see a lot of different helpful smiling face's behind the counter. They all seem to take pride in their work and that adds to my love of stopping in. The owners are definitely the lifeblood of the success here. THE DONUTS: Great variety and I'm slowly working my way through the inventory. I love the sausage roll (both spicy and regular). On the sweeter side, my favorite is probably the apple fritter (cherry is also great). The cinnamon roll is delicious, as are the cream-filled powdered donuts you ask for, which are made to order (you can choose white or yellow cream). These fried, stuffed and powdered dough puffs of goodness are likely to make a mess all over you, so wear the right clothing if you're munching while driving. I may or may not be speaking from experience. Hmmm... Yesterday, I tried the glazed red velvet donut. So good. There was also blueberry but red velvet screamed my name the loudest. I've tried the glazed twist, glazed croissant (Omg yes, the glazed croissant... I just wish it were bigger ). The egg & cheese breakfast croissant was also good. Next time I'm gonna try the Long John. There will be many next times. Many. THE COFFEE: Well... I haven't tried the coffee. It is definitely not a featured item here because it wasn't until yesterday that I first saw a little 4-inch square sign on the counter next to a tiny bell that reads "ring me for coffee". I do love my coffee, almost all day, so I'll investigate this sneaky offering later. I suppose any coffee with a buckin' good donut is good coffee, but I'll let you know if it teeters into 'great' territory. THE CONCLUSION: I love Buckin' Good Donuts and I think you will too. Until next time...

    Birthday donuts

    Ordered 6 dozen donuts for a birthday party and they turned out amazing!!! They were so fresh and beautiful. Pink strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate with pink and white sprinkles! The service was so kind and helpful. I called ahead and I'm thankful for them accommodating us with the special order. Thank you all at Buck'n Good!

    This place makes the best doughnuts. Don't let the location fool you inside a gas station. The lightest doughnuts I've had in years.

    At the end of Parkway Ave right before you leave all the storefronts and head into the Wilderness…read moreagain lies Crocketts which is almost small enough to miss minus the big 8-ft frying pan on the side of the road.. I visited with a family group of 10, and from the moment we sat down, the experience was outstanding. Our waitress was friendly, quick, attentive, and made excellent recommendations that helped everyone decide what to order. Despite the size of our group, she kept drinks filled, checked on us regularly, and made sure everything came out correctly. The food was exactly what you hope for when looking for a hearty country breakfast. The griddle cakes were enormous, light and fluffy with a rich buttery flavor that soaked up the syrup perfectly. They had a slightly crisp edge while staying soft and tender in the middle. The Big Breakfast Platter was massive, loaded with eggs, breakfast meats, potatoes, and grits. That will say the first batch of grits that they gave me were horrible as they were clumpy and kind of cold however the waitress easily fix that and replace them with a hot bowl of brown sugar grits that I enjoyed completely,other than this Everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and anyone who ordered eggs over medium were cooked just right The biscuits were some of the best we had during our Tennessee trip--large, flaky, buttery, and soft inside and out.. Whether eaten on their own or with gravy, they melted in your mouth. What impressed us most was that every single person in our party found something they loved, and everyone left completely satisfied. We were tasting everybody's food and still left with no one finishing their plates because The portions are no joke here. In fact, my only complaint is that there was so much food on my plate that I couldn't finish it all, and had to throw it away before heading home because it was a 3-hour ride back to the house so If you're visiting Gatlinburg and want a memorable breakfast with generous portions, great service, and delicious food, Crockett's Breakfast Camp is absolutely worth the wait, and it is a long long wait. sometimes..

My buddy opted for the Spicy Smash. The burgers were mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm great, Juicy and the bun held up. Fries were fresh and would like to see maybe a topping or poutine option for them. Cool spot to get some AC and great burger before a Smokies game or a night in the old City.

    We already had 250 miles under our belt for the day. 4 more hours to home. I was sick of fast food…read moreand we were making good time so we decided to venture off the road, but just a little. SmashCity wasn't far off of the interstate, it had good ratings and although we'd been eating burgers and fries quite a bit on this roadtrip, a good burger and fries really sounded good. All of the reviews were right on - this was absolutely NOT fast food - it was fast, really fast, but the speed was just bonus. As we usually do, we split. We chose the Carolina BBQ smash. The burgers were juicy - if you're not careful, I guarantee you'll be wearing it. Two critiques, it definitely needed more sauce - I just added some of the SmashCity sauce from our fries and it worked but I really would have liked to have had more BBQ sauce. Second, the fried onions were quite burned. I pulled off most of them. The hand cut fries were piping hot, just the right amount of greasy and seasoned perfectly. Splitting the burger was a good call - I'd never have eaten the whole thing myself. The burger and fries were just over $20. When you consider a Big Mac meal at that clown place is $14, SmashCity is almost a bargain. Paul, the owner was like the energizer bunny - he was everywhere at once. Personality oozed from his pores. Make sure you tell him Sue said hi! (He won't remember me but just say hi anyway!) Now I wouldn't say SmashCity has the best burgers - that award goes to our friend Jerry. He makes a pretty mean smash burger on the blackstone. If you have an extra half hour, skip the fast food burger joints, get off that highway, and go let Paul fill your belly for the rest of your trip! You'll appreciate it!
