Friendly staff, great service and delicious food. Saw this place while driving past doing some sight seeing, and this place caught our eye. Large parking lot was packed, which was a good sign! Nice location, lovely decorated yard full of plants and pretty flowers, and an incredible mountain view looking out our window where we were seated, and we didn't have to wait long for our food. Very clean restaurant, also. Glad we stopped in on our vacation! read more

I ordered 2 eggs over easy, gravy, hash brown casserole and sausage. The eggs weren't even cooked all the way, the gravy was like water. I've never seen gravy that soupy?! The biscuits were the frozen biscuits, and the hash brown casserole was flavorless. I seriously don't know how this place is rated so high? read more

Great breakfast! My husband had the Mountain Man Omelette with homemade biscuit and I the French toast with applewood bacon. Food fresh. Coffee was very good as well. read more

Not only is this place a tourist trap to steal people's money that don't pay attention to the check, but the food is not on par or anything worth a 4.6. read more

This is our second time eating at Elvira's, the biscuits and gravy were really good! I got the French toast with strawberries & it was tasty! Service was great! read more

We sat outside with beautiful fall view. The service was excellent. The chicken and waffles with honey spicy sauce was outstanding. Great homemade chips and house pickled beets. The veggie delight crepes were delicious as well. read more

My hubby had the Reuben and I had the Smoked Gouda Chicken Club both with baked sweet potatoes. Sandwiches were average and sweet potatoes weren't hot enough to melt "loaded topping"'which we were charge $1.99 each extra for without telling us. Service was the best thing about our meal. Very friendly and prompt. Key Lime pie was generous and loaded with whip cream but almost tasteless. We arrived about 5:00 on Friday evening with no wait. read more

One of our favorite restaurants in wears valley. Always tasty! Always busy! We always go for breakfast! Highly recommend.

Wonderful breakfast today! Evan though they were busy staff was very friendly! No pictures of our food... because we dug right in!! Worth the drive! We ate outside with a view of the Great Smoky Mountains. You won't want to miss this place! read more

Great place to have Sunday Brunch. Jennifer was a great waitress and the food was delicious

Great location right in the mountains. Nice outdoor porch dog friendly. Our waitress Kim was very informative. Both got the Tennessee haystack. The gravy is more of a sawmill gravy not a sausage gravy, but good. would recommend to anyone with family, couples or puppies very nice very friendly. read more

The service was exceptional here! I went here back in November, but forgot to write a post for it. I went after the Cade's Cove Lope and it definitely got my energy back lol. I ordered a crêpe to go, which I don't remember the name of it, but it was OK. I'd LOVED their omelette that they had! My waitress was extremely friendly and very attentive to me the whole time. Even the person at checkout was very friendly. I will definitely recommend this place for anyone they offer a local discount as well. read more

the cafe omlet is very dry, no cheese in it. Grits were lumpy and tasteless. Service was not good. Asked for decaf, got regular. No refills offered until ready to go. Atmosphere was nice. Parking was a nightmare. read more

Excellent food and service. Table of 6 and two babies and they seated us fast. Food arrived quickly and our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and special. They were all happy to be here. We enjoyed our meal read more

Really cool place with fresh food. Modern interior with some traditional vibes. Would come back again.

So glad we found this gem of a place. Service was impeccable, food came out quickly and was delicious. We sat inside and enjoyed the set up and small breakfast place vibe. Also enjoyed seeing the porch seating and that it was dog friendly! Sausage gravy was very very good, biscuits were buttery, crispy and sooo good. Could have eaten just those for breakfast and lunch! Waffles had great favor, bacon was well cooked, everything was great! Do not miss this place! read more

Awesome breakfast ! We have been here a couple of times and it has not disappointed us yet! Nice gift shop next door while we waited for a table . I had the French toast which was really good. Husband had nothing bad to say so I'll call it a win! Our bill was under $25 and you can't beat that! A little off the beaten path , but so worth it . We don't like any chain or highly commercialized restaurants and this restaurant was just our style ! read more

Great Gluten Free Menu, food was wonderful. They had the best gluten free bread I've ever had!

Amazing food and service. You need to eat there if you want some of the best food you can get. 10/10 for sure !!!

Stopped here and not a fan. We waited nearly an hour to have breakfast here on a weekday and once we were seated it took a while to get drinks and food. The food tasted like it had been frozen and reheated, not homemade and not very tasty. Friendly service but not worth the hype or the wait. read more

The service was great! The ladies in there were friendly and attentive. I had the chicken and waffles. Chicken was juicy and the breading was crisp. Waffles were coated in a sugar like a glazed donut. So good! Highly recommend this local spot. read more

Amazing food and amazing service. My wife and I always enjoy coming here when visiting the area. The chicken and waffles are my favorite.

the food is delicious saw online they were open. Drove 45 min to get here and sign says not open until mid February be aware before you make drive. now I'll think about chicken and waffles until Feb read more

Stoped at Elvira's for a great lunch before a long day of travel, the smoked Gouda chicken sandwich was amazing!

SO disappointed - I wanted to love it but was very let down. 1) The "crepes" are a buckwheat tortilla, not crepes. 2) Two OTHER families besides ours had "additional" charges for items they didn't order while we were there - Watch your receipt! 3) Kids meals say they come with a side, yet we were charged $4 for fruit - despite it being advertised as an option. We were also charged $4 for a side item that was added on, but never brought to the table. I let the server know, and she said that she would remove it, but never did. 4) I brought the two items to the attention of the staffer who was manning the register, and it was made very clear to me that correcting the receipt was an imposition. She huffed and puffed and even went so far as to ask "is this good enough for you now?". With these overcharges AND an almost $5 charge (well over any less than 3% credit card merchant service fee they would be assessed) -the difference amounted to almost $15. We came in at the tail end of breakfast so that would account for the low quality of the "freshness" but it does not account for the lack of service or attention to the details that we received. As my husband said " it now makes sense why they would offer a 10% discount to anybody who comes back". read more

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was outstanding. Can't wait to go back!

What a great little spot! We stopped for brunch on our way home from Pigeon Forge and had a great meal! Customer service was excellent and friendly! Atmosphere was homey and a small town feel! We spoke with the owner and she was a delight! I had the ham and eggs (delicious) and my husband had the biscuits and gravy (he said it was great) and my boys had the kids waffle (it was gone so it must have been good). Would highly recommend! read more

We drove umpteenth miles to get there and we ordered our breakfast and it came out .I just want to say I've NEVER seen gravy like that flourwith ALOT of water. The eggs were not fried enough. This is a place we ate there twice at one time .NOT AGAIN read more

My wife and I were in a nearby cabin looking fof a good breakfast/lunch option after check out. She found this place on Yelp with great reviews. We were not disappointed. It was very busy when we got there which was a good sign, but we only waited about 15 minutes. First the coffee was really good, which is important to us both. I had the breakfast sampler with eggs, bacon, biscuit and gravy, and hashbrown casserole. It was amazing! Eggs cooked to perfection as well as the bacon. Biscuit was very fluffy and the homemade gravy was some of the best I have had at a restaurant. The hashbrown casserole is the first I have had to compete with Cracker Barrels. She got a savory crepe with chicken, cheese, and veggies. It too was amazing. Our server Jennifer was attentive providing top notch service. We will be back!! read more

After arriving with a group of 9 just after 11 on a Saturday and seeing the packed parking lot, I was impressed that they managed to seat us immediately. The service was quick and friendly without being over-solicitous, and the wait for our food was not bad at all given the full house. Each of us ordered a sandwich and a side, and no one was unhappy, but the clear winners were the people who ordered the Grown-Up Grilled Cheese (by a landslide). The food looked so good that I couldn't convince anyone to pause long enough to get pictures, and even though several of us couldn't finish our sandwiches, there weren't many leftovers. The onion jam also received rave reviews. The only negative was that the sweet potato fries lacked flavor; they were crispy and looked appealing but just needed some seasoning. The restrooms were clean, and the prices were pretty reasonable. We would definitely go back, and next time we will try the breakfast menu. read more

Outstanding spot to bring the family for breakfast! Everyone at the table raved about the omelets, the hash browns and the waffles. The service was also excellent! When we come back to the areas we are making it a point to return here. read more

The BEST place we ate in the Pigeon Forge area. The waffles were so good, we didn't use syrup. Also, the service was top notch.

The food was great and everyone there was super friendly. We love finding local places to eat when we travel and this one was a great stop for breakfast. read more

Family of four-we ordered the adult grilled cheese, hamburger, Philly cheesesteak and a chicken kids meal. Service was wonderful and the food was great! Fresh, quality ingredients and just done well. A must if you are in Townsend! read more

Off the beaten path and away from the crowds - already was a winner in my books. We arrived around 8:30ish on a Saturday morning and were seated immediately. Not sure if they were still just getting things going for the day but we had to ask for silverware and syrup for our table. Not a big deal really but when you don't see a server for awhile it feels more like one. The food was excellent, maybe not memorable forever but quite good. What stood out to us most was the breakfast ham. Just seemed so authentic and fresh, unlike other places. My son was happy with his giant kids pancake and the eggs were great too. I had to order egg whites for dietary reasons so nothing to write home about there but at least they could accommodate for me. read more

Everything was delicious, top notch service. In wears valley, beautiful drive from pigeon forge

My wife, kids, and I took our extended family trip to Pigeon Forge for a week. On the day we went to the Caverns we decided to stop for an impromptu lunch here. It is a quaint restaurant that serves brunch and lunch. Parking was on the lawn out front and we were greeted by a few wonderful staff members! We were a group of 11 and were able to squeeze around a table. Our waitress was very attentive and nice. Our kids all ordered crepes while the adults ordered turkey sandwiches and fried chicken and waffles. All were fantastic! If you find yourself in the area you must stop by and try this place! read more

Mountain man omelette, grownup grilled cheese are my favorites but everything has been great that we have tried! Service is always great and they even bring my dog a water bowl when we eat outside. Love the open kitchen farmhouse feel and I can see what other dishes look like for future visits. read more

Great breakfast spot with good service (and usually no wait!) Stopped in after trying several well-known breakfast places in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area which all had over 2 hours waits, and we were not disappointed! Fresh and affordable food with lots of options. Great staff and quick service, and of course a quaint decor! I would highly recommend to anyone passing through who wants to avoid the craziness of being in town. read more
