    This parking lot is now taken by Marble City Market. I love the revitalization of this area, it is my favorite little spot in Knoxville.

    Brand new spot! Attended their first trivia night. 4 because it has more potential. This place is going to be awesome come VOL game days! plenty of open space, games & you can create your own flatbreads/pizza! Only tried apps this time but solid selections available & not too pricey! Very attentive staff. Not one consistent server but we were always being tended too! Excited to come back as it grows.

    The Best Karaoke Bar in Knoxville! Friday nights are super fun!! Also an official UT football game watch party location!

    Multiple media views for sports

    We were able to get a sneak peek at The Local Smokey. The set up is phenomenal and spacious for a sports bar in the downtown area. They have a full craft beer station and another 360 full bar on the adjacent side. They have a space in the front for a live band and several pool tables in the opened back area. What you will really enjoy is the ability to sit anywhere in the building and still see multiple TVs! Check it out! Opening at the end of June 2023!

    We popped in because we wanted a beer before the St. Patrick's Day parade. We ended up staying here…read morea few hours because you could see the parade from the window. It wasn't crowded inside, there are a lot of seating options for big or small groups. Several tables could seat at least 6. Michael was bartending when we went. He did a great job at making us feel like locals! He was attentive even though it was quite busy from people coming in from the parade. The arcade area was pretty cool. Each side had a bar, but only one was open at the time we went. We didn't get food, but it looked like they had some yummy options from what we saw get delivered to other tables. The music was good. The people were friendly as well. This is definitely a place we would return to if we come back in town!

    Give a 4 but was really thinking 3.5 stars just because of the food (I didn't order any drinks and…read moreit was a quick stop in). I saw the ramen on the Yelp pictures and it spoke to me, so I walked in and ordered some. You have to stand in line at the bar to order your food so that took awhile, but the food came out pretty quick. I wasn't too impressed with the ramen, and I've had ramen all over the world. The broth was good, I enjoyed the spicy flavor. However, having tomatoes in the ramen was weird and I didn't enjoy that. My biggest complaint is there was very little meat in the ramen, like 2 small chunks of brisket. It seems like a great place to have drinks and hang out, but as far as the food it was meh to me.

    Suttree's High Gravity Tavern - Large list of on tap beers, really friendly service. Didn't try any, but the ramen looks amazing. We will definitely return.
