We were staying in Gatlinburg and decided we wanted to take a picnic lunch into our adventures in…read morethe Great Smoky Mountain National Park one of the days we were there. I saw that there was a Publix in Pigeon Forge and knew that's where we'd need to go to get our picnic supplies! Because we had flown in (and didn't have picnic basket on our pack list), I knew that we needed to get a small cooler to keep our drinks and sandwiches cool on the warm spring day. Fortunately, Publix had a nice variety of small lunch box size coolers and we found one for a reasonable price that was perfect for what we needed and would collapse down for easy packing to bring it home. We then made our way to the deli and got fresh, deli made sandwiches made with boar's head meats and cheeses. They're fully customizable and we very much enjoyed them! We were also able to grab some fruit, pretzel crisps, boar's head hummus, and bottled beverages to round out our picnic. Everything was great, prices were reasonable, and we enjoyed a beautiful picnic in this beautiful area. One note would be that the deli does get busy. We were there in the ease of spring (ie: no big National Park crowds) and we still had to wait in a bit of a line for our deli sandwiches. So, just something to factor into scheduling. That said, we didn't mind a bit and the sandwiches were worth the wait. Get to it!

It was located at the intersection of Great Smoky Mountains Pkwy and Wears Valley Rd. The store was clean, well organized, and well maintained. I was able to easily find what I needed. Prices weren't the best, but there were some deals here and there. I bought 2 bags of Boulder Canyon chips for $8 and a gallon of Publix drinking water for $1.43. It was quicker and very convenient for me to pay for my items while using one of the self checkout kiosks and be on my way.

The owner needs to learn how to communicate in a kinder way. A few visits I found the owner to be a bit testy. I asked if he could order 2 lbs. of stone crab claws for me and he said yes and would call me when they came in. The price was like $35 lb. When he called I came in and he had 3 lbs. I said I only wanted two and he said "What am I going to do with the remaining pound?" As if it is my problem. I was NOT wanting to spend $100 on stone crab. Then, they didn't keep fresh for more than a day. DAMN. I bought raw whipping cream and it wouldn't whip (there was too much milk in it) and I spent $12 or so dollars for a pint. Another disappointment. The last visit was a couple months ago. I bought a piece of grouper (with the skin on....which is adding weight and you don't eat the skin) and a smoked mahi fish dip that was HARD pieces of fish. NO MORE! I'd rather drive to Gainesville to buy fresh fish than constantly be over charged and disappointed.

Walk in and see all the fish. The decor is trophy mounts and the counter has seafood on ice for you to look at. Order at the counter and they give you cups for your self serve beverage and a number for your table so someone can bring out your food when it is ready. Megan and I both ordered off the specials menu. I had the flounder and shrimp platter, Megan had the salmon Bahn mi. My plater was was one thin flounder filet (flounder are flat so that's ok), five shrimp, four hush puppies, and fries. The flounder was corn meal breaded and kinda bland. The shrimp were not shrimpy. Not bad but not good and with a thicker batter. The hush puppies were small but very good. The fries were batter coated and looked like typical food service fries. Megan's sandwich looked good but the salmon was over cooked and tasted earthy. Salmon is a fish, salmon live in in the ocean. How are they earthy? Anyway Megan said the best part of her meal was the fries. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing. This place gets a lot of love but I'd eat at Captain D's for better food for way less money. My plate was $27 and Captain D's is currently advertising a fish and shrimp plate for $7. I will be reviewing that one soon.

I noticed the other day that they're also not labeling the meat with the country of origin which they seemed so proud of previously.

I've spent lot's of $ at the Murphy Ingles in particular over the years and shopped several times a week there & they seem to be in decline overall. Time to find a new place to shop it seems!

The former freshly in-store-made pie now is previously frozen with a lot fewer ingredients. Even the cooking time has changed -- a lower temperature with a longer oven time. I popped the "new" pizza in the freezer a week ago with plans to eat it later. This evening I thawed the vegetarian version and baked it and attempted to eat it. The pizza lacked flavor and the green and red peppers seemed as though they had been dehydrated before being scattered on top. What a disappointment. The market does offer fresh, hot pizza for a higher price, yet no more bargain pizza that enticed me to shop there on Thursdays and buy a cart full of other food.
