My dad absolutely raved about this place years ago, and insisted I go try it out. I was so glad I…read moredid. Over the years it has become a deliciously, reliable place to pop into whenever I'm in Townsend. It's quite a unique setup- creamery, brewery/restaurant, and an outside taco "truck". For families, it is such a wonderful spot; playground-esque with lots of activities for them to enjoy. My husband and I enjoyed the drinks (a beer for him, mango margarita from the taco truck for me!) and food very much. I enjoyed the tacos, one of each flavor, and my husband had a flatbread. The menu is quite diverse is has a lot of brewery favorites like pizzas and fries...which I also absolutely loved. While it may not be full service, the staff are very friendly and always seem happy to help you get what you need. A nice, casual spot that hits every time.

The place was clean, well lit, and perfect for conversation over tasty food and beverages. We ordered chicken wings, and a pizza. It was all very tasty, the chicken wings were relatively large as well. Super flavorful and moist, yet fully cooked. Next time I stay in Townsend, this will be a must-visit location.

But the place, though worn, is spotlessly clean. The food that they prepare is all scratch made to order. So don't be impatient it's well worth the wait. My wife had corn dogs and fries. The corn dogs had a wonderful crunchy cornmeal crust that reminded me of my childhood (I'm pushing 70). I had the patty melt that had a very tasty yet unknown cheese that was so melty that I loved the sandwich. This place is a little out of the way but if you are anywhere near Johnson City it's worth the effort.

The pancakes were just ok.... They made the batter as we ordered it so it didn't have time to absorb the flour so it wasn't all that good. He said he would try a burrito next time. I loved my biscuits and gravy. The gravy was a darker color but the sausage was so flavorful and it was light in pepper which I like because I don't like pepper. The biscuit was a really great size and fluffy. The bacon is not thick cut but still Crispy and good, eggs were cooked nicely. Now on to the cheddar rounds..... I try these all over but these are the absolute closest you will get to the Pals version. They were lacking the season salt which would have made them taste like Pals. Over all I was very happy and will definitely be back!!! Also the prices were good (pic of menu (included)

This place is still great, but it's not on the same level as it once was. Food: 4.5/5 I got the Monster Burger with Pepper Jack cheese and a side of French fries. The burger was cooked very well but could have used a bit more seasoning. The Pepper Jack cheese could have been a little spicier, but I understand that each brand has a different spice level. Today's fries were just good, but most of the time they are great. You will learn quickly that I am a French fry connoisseur, and I will always say that crinkle-cut fries are the best in the game. This place serves crinkle-cut fries, and most of the time they absolutely hit. ‍ Service: 5/5 I went around 11:20-ish on a Wednesday, and it was packed! It's great to see the business still doing well, but it did take some time to get my meal. However, it was worth the wait, and the service is fantastic. The staff works extremely hard, and they make the experience enjoyable even during busy hours. Atmosphere: 4/5 The restaurant is absolutely clean, and they take great pride in keeping it that way. I will say there isn't much table space, but that's due to the size of the building. I honestly wish they would move to a bigger location because they deserve even more business and additional staff to help support the incredible team they already have. Value: Cannot Judge I can't fully judge this category since my dad treated me to lunch and paid for it. That said, the portion sizes for the prices seem fair and fitting. Final Thoughts Like I said before, Becky's is not on the same level it once was, but I still love this place! It's always a pleasure being served by a great staff while chowing down on a good Monster Burger. If you're a burger fan, then you should absolutely make a trip to Becky's!

Johnny B Good all the way to Alcoa Tennessee…read more I had read some review on Yelp, - Thank you fellow Yelpers! and had Hot Rod's 50's Diner on my list. We pulled into the parking lot, and I could hear my compadre, RIP, say to me, ' Si está ocupado, va a ser bueno." If its busy, its going to be good. The parking lot was full and the inside of the restaurant was busy. We walked in and our Mom who was a teenager during the 50's loved the decor and signage and my brother immediately gravitated towards the pinball machines. We sat down at a booth. The booths are a little tight if you're tall and have had a couple of cheeseburgers over the years. The good news is that the table is moveable Our server Finch was delightful. By the way, it was her Birthday on the day we were there and even though she was working on her Birthday, she was still having a lot of fun. The regular menu is HUGE. I'm not talking Cheesecake Factory HUGE, I'm talking about triple that...... There's about 50 different burgers and I'm probably missing some. There's burger with a fried bologna slice and american cheese There's a burger with Military Chow The menu is clear to understand but there's an overwhelming amount of choices. I didn't see the vegan menu in the regular menu so I politely asked Finch for the vegan menu, and she skipped back to me with it. Wow - A lot of choices as well. Hot Rod's uses Beyond Meat for some of their burgers but they also custom craft their veggie burgers. The vegan cheese on my burger was most likely Follow Your Heart or Violife, but it was properly melted. The Beyond Burger was a frozen slab without any seasoning but cooked through. I would have preferred some seasoning but hey - I'm not going to knock it. The portion of fries is massive. The vegan ranch is Follow Your Heart and was a nice dipping sauce for the fries. My brother had a buffalo chicken sandwich and my mom had the reuben. We all shared the vegan banana split. Hot Rod 50's Diner as stated by another Yelp reviewer may be the best diner in the United States.

Gordon Ramsey would consider it a threat. As a chewy bacon lover and enthusiast, when my bacon came out charred and demented, i was appalled to say the least. I had to drench it in the white gravy so it would give my stomach the illusion of chewy. Even then, even with the request of chewy, i was let down. The home fries were exceptional.. as exceptional as any other home fry you'll get on the Pigeon Forge strip. And why? They'll all the same refrigerated chips of processed mess. Soggy, not even crisp. So poor you'd hope the microwave would add additional flavors from all the other food they microwaved. I wouldn't even praise the food if paid me, it's sad enough i paid IT to taste like wet squeaky boots. But anyways the atmosphere was just bewildering! They have a big exhibit with birds you can watch. Sometimes they're loud and a bit squawk-y but it doesn't deplete the experience. This is my internal conflict with a certain drink on the menu. The Monster. This satanic abomination soup of a beverage really tempted me. I drink energy drinks and was excited to try a Monster! I mean.. we're all a little adventurous deep down.. human nature! Wrong. Apparently.. With full fledged confidence.. as much as you'd expect at a busy bar playing BINGO.. I asked the waitress for a Monster energy drink. Big. Mistake. I get it.. I took an unsuspecting picture of the beast waiting.. opened it.. and took a sip. If you were to ask me, giving somebody a pedicure with your MOUTH would taste no different than a can of this monstrosity. Maybe I recommend the restaurant.. but I don't recommend the Monster. Don't be fooled by the big print image of the can on the menu. Restaurant - 6/10 Demon Soup In An Aluminum Can - 2/10

My wife ordered the Reuben sandwich and really liked it. I ordered the beef stroganoff, and was pretty seriously disappointed.

That being said, our friends enjoyed their food, but except for the Reuben, it did not seem like anything special. The service was very enthusiastic, but I still felt like we weren't getting adequate attention. Probably because of the closed door.
