    Shiner
    Bruce K.

    Did I mind my P's and Q's? I guess I did. I came here on a cold MLK day as my date wanted to check it out as it was maybe 10 minutes down the road from her? So what's good here? Let me get to the point. If you're looking for a big extensive menu, I'm not going to tell you to come here. However, if you just want to have a snack while drinking, this is a place to go. I think one thing that stood out to me here was that the prices for the food was a little high. However, the beer it was good to go. This is what we ordered and what we thought: 1. Mac N Cheese (Piggy Mac) - This Mac n Cheese has a kick to it. I believe the BBQ sauce had a little twinge of spiciness, however I felt as if the meat portion wasn't enough. It was sprinkled with some bacon pieces and then a few pieces of pulled pork. BBQ sauce was a big portion to it. 2. The Caprese Slider - Very simplistic slider. I liked this one, though in my eyes it wasn't the best, it came to a close 2nd or 3rd. 3. The Shiner Slider - In both of our opinions, this was probably the best slider at the restaurant. The onions just did it for me along with the bacon. I mean, you can never go wrong with bacon. 4. The Jack Slider - This was okay. I would have to say it tied with the Caprese or in 3rd. 5. The Pub Special - This wasn't too bad either, but still came no where near the Shiner. The day we went in, it was pretty much empty. So service was wonderful. The bartender was very nice in taking our orders as well as helping me decide which drink to buy. As I said, this place is definitely all about small plates to go along with your drink. I liked minding my P's and Q's. I believe I will be back if I'm just looking for a place to drink and watch a sports game that I can't catch at home. Worth checking out!

    Piggy mac!!

    The bartender gentleman was very nice after being turned away from food 15 minutes from closing @ Steves so, we decided to walk in here and try it out, we are hungry and not too much around in this area. He suggested "the shiner" slider, which we are trying along with the turkey- apple-havarty panini..sounds good- and the roast beef chapolte. What an excellent meal!! We were all very impressed with the service, the food and the professionalism of this establishment!! Thank You!

    Lots of goodies on tap!  All delicious!

    Deep in the nowhere land of between Lenoir City and Farragut proper, a little slice of beer snob Heaven opened. It is Mind Yer Ps and Qs, and it is incredible. My wife and I got to enjoy a rare date night, and had a blast. First of all, whether you have beer drinkers, wine drinkers, or spirits drinkers in your party, this place can accommodate all three. They always have a featured beer and wine of the day, and though small, there are plenty of seats. Secondly, the food is phenomenal. I was going to snap a photo of the chupacabra flatbread and cheese platter we ordered, but we dug in too quickly. Instead, I snapped a tap handle photo of all the yum available. It's good to see a little upscale bar with quality food pop up within the far west Knox County area. Would I go back again? Yes, many times over! The piggy mac and cheese must be tried, as well as the buffalo chicken dip! First chance we get, we'll be back!

    Horrible St Patty  Nothing like Irish times would have had  No reunion here Hamburgers and hot dogs really

    Found this place by total accident. Pulled off into what I thought was a business park so I could make a phone call(didn't know you can use your phone while driving in TN). Noticed a sign that said beer and wine and decided to give it a try. I am glad I did! First off not being from TN I thought it might be a locals only type spot as it is not seen from the road very well. After walking in and ordering I felt like I was local. The bartenders, especially Precious, were super awesome! She recommended beer and food and was super friendly. The hot dog sliders she recommended were awesome with the IPA she recommended. Second the locals that were there that night were super friendly. Met an older couple that were really nice. Also met John the regular. He was a little intense but insisted on buying me beers and I can't turn down a free beer. I highly recommend this place weather a local or visiting TN as I was.

    After a day of house hunting, it was nice to find a spot where you can sit outside and relax and enjoy an adult beverage or 3. Found Ps &Qs in Yelp and decided to give it a try. My wife has been trying to find me replacement drinking places since I left Raleigh... She hit the nail on the head with this head. We ordered Irish nachos (we call then Chachos - potato chip nachos) and hotdog sliders on a pretzel bun with beer cheese! Oh my... the beer (I'm an IPA guy) was great and the sliders even better. The nachos were pretty decent as well. Nice place you can bring your dog to (they have patio seating). It's in the burbs for sure but a good place to be! I'm sure we'll be back

    Went here to an event with my mom for Wine and Canvas. Our waitress was very nice and was able to answer our questions, she also offered us a sample before we purchased the wines which was nice because them we were able to get the one we liked as opposed to getting something and wasting our money. We also tried their pretzel & beer cheese dip which was good but had a lot of cayenne in it. The prices were reasonable with the wine being about $7 per glass and the appitizer being about $8. Overall we had a great time at the event and the wine & food was good, so if we are ever on that side of town again we know where to go for a good time.

    Sliders on pretzel rolls! So yummy!

    Cozy Scottish pub. Tasty food, good brew & whisky selection. Live music! Soccer!…read more On a recent roadtrip, we tried out Boyd's Jig & Reel in Knoxville. At midday on a weekday (spring-2026), this warm-feeling comfortable pub was active but not crowded. Of course we had beer-battered fish & chips: tender sweet cod in a not-too-thick crunchy flavorful coating, with fresh greens, onions, and tomatoes. Served with piping-hot thin fries, hand-cut to give a variety of crispier vs. soft bites. You could get that as a small-plate, as a Po'Boy sandwich, or as a main. And we had a bowl of thick rich flavorful creamy chowder. Delicious, satisfying dishes. They had a nice selection of deep crusty savory pies, too. We loved their amazing range of single-malt whiskeys, including some like a smokey softly-fruity Port Askaig that we haven't seen elsewhere. We liked slowly sipping a strongly-peaty young Islay, like 10-year Laphroaig, and Boyd's also had plenty of smoother well-aged pours up and down the price-range. They also had a nice selection of crafts, ales, stouts, ciders, and several Scottish brews. We saw that they have live music almost every evening (not Mondays), with midday music Sat and Sun. Scottish, Irish, bluegrass, old-time, classic country, and more! Next time we have to fit that into our schedule. And fútball (soccer) of course! Boyd's Jig & Reel is a must-visit in the middle of Knoxville!

They can answer all of your questions and can make recommendations so no need to feel overwhelmed. The interior is cozy, rustic and looks like a Scottish pub I got the rich and decadent and enjoyed. One thing that really endeared me to this bar was the live music. I felt like I was living in a bridgerton scene. I didn't try the food, but the menu looks yummy

    Trying to find good things to say about this place isn't very hard. This was my first time in…read moreKnoxville and my first Speakeasy. The PKL is located inside The Oliver Hotel. It appears you can enter either from the interior door opposite The Oliver Royale Restaurant or from the outside. I never saw the exterior entrance but have heard there's no sign, just a red light above a door. I am not sure how the whole password thing works or where to get it.... I just know the person I was with had it. We sat at the bar and the ambiance is really intimate. I have read now after being home that I guess they hide drink recipes in some of the books? I am not sure if that is true or not. If you can get a seat at the bar, it's so fun. Trey was great, as were the ladies! Trey puts on a little show with each drink he crafts. The drinks are ridiculously good. I would not be able to choose a favorite. I have no clue what the bill damage was, but I can say that between the both of us, we had every drink on the menu. Now I need to find reasons to go back to Knoxville just to go to the Peter Kern Library!
