While it is easy enough to find, let GPS take you there as you need to work around a one-way street…read moreto a smaller side street. There is a sign on the front of the building. The restaurant shares space in the building with a package shipping store and they have signs allocating parking for each business. The restaurant does have parking adjacent to the building in front as well as additional parking around the side. There was no specific handicapped space but there is a ramp in the front to the entrance door. Be aware the front door is for entering and the side door for exit only. If you park on the side you will need to walk around to the front to enter. The cashier is on the side near the exit door so the flow through the restaurant is pretty controlled. Also, there is a step down as you exit from the side door so be aware. There is a small waiting area as you walk in. We were greeted as soon as we entered and only waited a couple minutes for a table. All seating is tables and they are spaced well so you do not feel crowded. While the menu is typical for a diner, they also have daily specials written on chalkboards in a couple places around the walls. One interesting thing to note is the menu included not only the "regular" price, but also the discounted cash price. We placed out drink order and then a few minutes later placed the food order. The food did take about 25 minutes to arrive but the coffee never stopped flowing while we were waiting, and the background noise was low so conversation was easy. Even though the dining area was full our servers were very attentive. The eggs, sausage, and biscuits and gravy were exceptional. The eggs were cooked as ordered, the hand-patted sausage was fresh and had a nice crispy outside without being dry inside. The biscuits are homemade and the sausage gravy had noticeable sausage chunks. I did add pepper, but that is a personal preference. The western omelet had all the ingredients folded into the cooked eggs. The ingredients all had a slight char from the grill which really elevated the flavor. The hash browns were typical, nothing special but cooked perfectly. The biscuit holds up to butter and jelly very well. This was an outstanding breakfast. The servers are efficient, the food is wonderful, and the overall experience was refreshing. This is a must stop whenever you are in the area.

First I'd like to say, we are local full-time residents of Bryson City. Not that this should make…read moreany difference but to some it may. Everett Street Diner is our most favorite place for breakfast - hands down. Hubby and I have tried many items, none have disappointed. Fresh, hot, correctly cooked, presentation, service, hospitality, coffee, atmosphere, and prices - all are spot on fabulous. The owner - Mr Everett Street Diner ALWAYS greets everyone with a smile and friendly conversation. Family oriented, he welcomes you in, sits you down and makes you feel like you're in his kitchen. If (more like when) you wait for your table, it's never long. The staff bust their butts and don't make you feel rushed at all. This morning we/the restaurant celebrated, as an entire group, the expected January arrival of a little girl, and three birthdays!!! And yes, we ALL sang happy birthday. Well, except for Mr Everett, apparently he doesn't sing and will tell ya so!! Seriously though, if you're looking for a good meal, friendly service, and a place you can't wait to come back to ..... try Everett Street Diner!! Oh, and if you're looking for a little heat and spice? You've GOTTA try their spicy diner relish!!! We're on our 4th jar and have gifted 3 jars out to friends, family and a great barkeeper in San Antonio (but that's a different story)! Love you all at Everett Street Diner!!!

The ambiance is very diner homey. This is an experience! Destination stop in Bryson City!

Not even once came up to offer refills . We did tip greatly but please train your staff. I'd not go back..

Willow Tree restaurant in Robbinsville, NC has moved locations but the vibe and food is still the…read moresame. The first time we went to Willow Tree we had the best young server and a great experience with their tasting menu. The tasting menu is gone, but the portions and options are still the same. There is a lack of good places to eat in Robbinsville so it is great to see the Willow Tree finding a new home a up and coming lodge. The trout dip and the fillet were our favorites items. If you get the ribeye, ask for the steak sauce on the side. There is just a lot of it, but it is good. I wish they were making their own Caesar dressing. The one they are using is fine but tasted jarred. Also ask for extra dressing. The grill on the Romain is great, but they aren't putting the dressing between the leaves. I do wish when they were building the lodge they but huge windows that took advantage of the view of the lake. This didn't change the food .

Ambiance is shabby chic, intimate house resto. Multiple dining rooms are small and they have an outdoor patio that has several tables. +. Food is American and their menu changes every week. We had their grilled caesar to start and shared a 14oz prime rib. The fresh 1/2 romain was slightly charred and sprinkled with pre-made dressing. I had it without croutons and my friend had it with. We both enjoyed it. The salad plates though were narrow and an odd shaped which wasn't easiest to support cutting. The prime rib was well done to blue. They don't ask for desired temp. If you prefer specific temp, be aware. This steak was tougher than expected for a typical PR. The sides we picked were butternut squash which was slightly sweet but pleasant. =. Service was mostly good. Our waitress was friendly and prompt. However, I do have a bone to pick. They charge $10 for splitting an entree, BUT they do NOT serve the entree to 2-plates! They brought one entree (as photo'd) and just an empty dinner plate. WE HAD TO cut and plate the 2nd plate ourselves! So they charge $10 for splitting withOUT providing any service :((. If you charge a fee for service, fine. But you SHOULD provide that SERVICE you charge! Also, my salad came with croutons which the waitress quickly remedied. We ordered offered blueberry cobbler for dessert but they were already sold out. It was only about 7:30pm! =. Price is on the higher side and little value for what you get. +. Parking is easy in a private gravel lot. Willow Tree has a nice ambiance, their food was just okay and their upcharge for service NOT provided was a turn off. Not sure if they are looking for repeat customers... There aren't many choices for restaurants around Robbinsville. I'll be packing food prior to coming up this way next time. MY RATINGS - - - Inhumane - - Disgusted - Don't bother = Missed the Mark +. Good ++ Better +++ EDIBLE... WHERE have you bee my LiFe!

The food was good, the atmosphere was relaxing, and it's a great spot to stop after a day of rafting or exploring Bryson City. We especially appreciated the excellent service and welcoming vibe. We're giving it 4.5 stars because we would have loved to see a little more variety on the menu, but other than that, everything was great. We would definitely recommend River's End to anyone visiting the area and looking for a pleasant meal by the river.
