Plenty of room if you have a big party and the fire place in the center makes you feel like you are in a cabin. I would definitely recommend this place!

We were seated immediately and our sweet waitress was quick to get our drink orders! Let me tell you everyone, this is hands down one of the best breakfasts I've ever had in Pigeon Forge! My fiancée had the steak and eggs with grits! He absolutely loved it and I tasted the grits! Some of the best I personally have ever had! I had the Forge breakfast (I think) it was 2 eggs cooked my way (over medium, perfectly cooked!) chose of meat I got bacon! Breakfast potatoes and a biscuit and gravy! I also added white toast with no butter for that delicious yolk!!! Everything was delicious! Our waitress was so attentive and friendly! The space is huge and very welcoming for a good home cooked breakfast at home feel! The place still smells like it's brand new!!! We're going to make this a tradition from now on!!!

My family and I will never cross the threshold of this establishment again simply because Sawyers…read morerules are in fact NOT family friendly. I have an 18 month old son that fell asleep in the car ride on the way to Sawyer's. The rest of my family, 5 adults and 1 four year old went ahead inside. Our waitress informed us that sawyers has a "rule" that once we have ordered, my husband would not be able to even come to the table. Whatever I ordered for him would be packed in a to-go box but he couldn't eat it in the restaurant nor at the table. He'd have ti eat it outside. They were NOT busy. Maybe 10 families at best in the restaurant. I called my husband to tell him this ridiculous rule and he said no, I'll stay in the car and he won't eat breakfast and I insisted that wake our son up and he come inside. It wouldn't be fair to him. Meanwhile, the waitress asked her manager if they could make an exception but my husband was already walking in with my 18 month old. I told her if my son starts screaming because he's tired, not one employee by Sawyers better say anything about it. She said that wouldn't be a problem. I even told her that I know it's not her rule or her fault, but this is ridiculous for families to be subjected to this type of rule. The kids menu does not offer any type of waffle and my 4 year old had her heart set on a waffle. I told her they had m&m pancakes ($6.99) and she was sold on m&m's but not the pancakes. The waitress asked my daughter if she wanted a m&m waffle instead and she could get them to put the m&m's on top but they wouldn't be cooked inside the waffle. My 4 year old was so happy, she even gave the waitress a hug. Waitress was great. Fast forward to the bill, the waffle that the waitress offered my daughter... was $9.99+.99¢ for the m&m's. I didn't say a word about it, I was so aggravated at this point with Sawyer's, it wouldn't have done any good. And once again, the waitress is following the rules. Everyone at the table all said it was a mediocre breakfast at best and we all should have went to Mama's Farmhouse for breakfast instead. Sawyers, DO BETTER. You are an eating establishment in a family friendly tourist town. BE FAMILY FRIENDLY. The rule about not being able to allow my husband join us when my cranky baby is catching a quick nap? That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard and quite offensive considering we are paying customers regardless. Now, when people ask me where to go and where to avoid in Pigeon Forge, Sawyer's will be at the top of the list to avoid.

I was a solitary diner on my birthday and had a hankering for German food. There aren't many…read moreGerman restaurants in my home state so I was surprised that I could find one in Pigeon Forge. I ordered the traditional schnitzel (pork cutlet that was pounded thin). It was not breaded, but it was coated with egg and flour and prepared well. I had the German potato salad and red cabbage side orders. Both were served warm as is custom. I was a bit upset that the waiter gave me the bill when the meal was finished. I told him it was my birthday and that I had wanted coffee and cake. He took the bill and crumpled it in his hand. The portion of cake that he presented could have easily served three! I left the top frosting. The chocolate cake was moist and the frosting between the layers was German chocolate. Available seating offerings were a booth, table, or a table al fresco. It had the beer garden appeal. I opted to sit inside. The restaurant is also very family oriented (as are most things in Pigeon Forge). Prices were reasonable, food was served at the correct temperature, portions were prodigious. The venue was also immaculate. I would recommend this tavern to anyone who appreciates German fare.

Upon looking at other reviews, it appeared that their pizza wasn't really the best choice - so I opted for the cheeseburger and fries combo. The cheeseburger was maybe 1/4 lb at best, but it was griddle-cooked and juicy. The burger itself was fully loaded with all the traditional fixin's, and the bun itself was also seared in liquid butter. Delicious. The fries were also nothing to sneeze at. Perfectly cooked and crinkle-cut (but not the frozen bag kind... Way thicker). Also, COVERED in seasoned salt. My favorite. I can't say I'll venture out this way again, unless my wife drags me back out to CLIMBWorks again, but if we do, we'll definitely have to stop by.

Placed order March 9th around 6:00pm. My Order was a Cheese Pizza, extra cheese. Also a Cheesesteak…read moresandwich. I'm a local and a regular. The pizza had a lot of risen holes (it's the round areas on the pizza) in it, the dough was undercooked in certain places. The cheesesteak was much smaller portion than usual. The bread was the same size. The small amount of cheesesteak was hard, tough and dry extremely skimpy on the meat for the high price tag it's around $10. Extremely disappointing, I or my husband have been coming here for Over a year. The quality and quantity took a drastic nosedive since two weeks ago. He tried to overcharge us by $3 for extra cheese. As you can see, this is not extra cheese. There are Little Burn risen holes are everywhere. This place is usually good. This time it wasn't. It was extremely disappointing. I will be unfortunately driving to a few miles further to Gatlinburg to pick up pizza from now on. Pizza and Sandwiches are way too expensive to "hope" it's going to be prepared the same. If one would have been made to their usual standard I would not have wrote this review. It's the fact both pizza and sandwich was complete underwhelming trash, I wrote this review.

You can either try and pick apart the few, savory elements as the sweet undertones highlight the mild acidity of the sauce or enjoy the maelstrom of deliciousness in one bite. Either way, it's perfect. It's so good, it's simply overwhelming. Texture, taste, value, this dang sandwich knows no bounds. I had one on the way up to hike the AT, and stopped back by so I could by another to enjoy on the way home (I was hoping it would make the journey back to Nashville, but my self control failed me). The Italian is great too, but the meatball sub is the belle of the ball. This place is truly one of a kind, from the trailer set amongst mountains to (if Chef Frank still has them out there) the TVs tunes to a channel that plays bluegrass music on the wrap around patio of the trailer. A word about Frank: I grew up with a grandfather who owned a mom and pop deli, so I know the type. You want great food? Don't be in a hurry, don't tell him how to make what he clearly knows how to make (and well, I might add), and don't be hyper sensitive when it comes to him catering to your demands. The guy knows what he's doing. Let him do it so you can enjoy it. For every one star review, it has nothing to do with the food. For every five start review, it does. Don't Yelp review people's personality, go by the principle of good food being good food. But I digress...

I will note that the bathrooms are also shared with River Rat. Seating is outdoors, there are benches and high top tables. The table style is covered, while some benches have umbrellas. I am 1000% coming back. This will be my new favorite stop before heading home from the Smokey Mountains! This was perfect because we didn't want a fast food chain, but this was supporting local and it was affordable and fast! Try this place out!
