The Opossum's Tale - British Near Me - Jonesborough, Tennessee

When you are greeted by a smiling friendly staff member you know the night will be good. Our first visit to "the Possum". It feels and looks like your little neighborhood pub. The menu is concise but varied and we were surprised at the vegan/vegetarian/gluten free noted choices We tried the huge crispy onion rings, the soup of the week, the fish and chips and the ploughman's lunch. I would recommend all of them and especially when washed down with a Guinness. Ask for the special sauces to dip your chips - curry and a great tartar sauce. The kitchen seems to enjoy fixing interesting takes on traditional dishes also so trust them and see how it goes. You'll be happy. read more

Brian, the B&B owner recommended this place right down from his B&B. So glad he did walked right in and got a table. Super cute place you order at the bar. They're very friendly. We ordered the shepherds pie split it because it came with a salad too, which was perfect. We ended up getting two beers. It was great for an evening to just sit back and enjoy. Local favorite absolute. Must they say it's the best pub in Jonesboro and I would agree! read more

Was in Jonesborough on a Sunday for a theater matinee and this restaurant was literally the only one open!! The staff is very friendly. The menu is extremely limited and prices a little high for the amount of food. My friend had a salad with chicken thighs which was interesting because you usually don't see chicken thighs on the menu. I had the Ploughman's Lunch. It comes with cured meat (pork) which I don't eat so they substituted chicken thighs instead. The platter was tasty but very tiny portions of chutney, cheese, and baked beans. It's a Public House with a cute interior. It would be nice if they added more food to their menu. read more

Quaint atmosphere. Pleasant service. Pricey for the serving sizes, but tasty. Will likely go again.

Comfortable pub with good food and great staff. They are soon to expand so bring your friends! The customers are fun people.

Food is alway good and fresh. Staff is excellent. Always a smile. Great friendly local spot

My husband and I both ordered the Fish-n-chips. We enjoyed the fish and the salad that came with it, but the French fries were a bit over cooked. The next time we'll replace the the fries with a different side. read more

As a British person. It's a bit of a stretch saying it's an English pub. However compared to DC the beer is cheap and the food delicious! Would definitely recommend. read more

Delightful, delicious, and a definite repeat! Staff was kind and very pleasant. The food (both my husband and I had fish and chips) was very tasty and I highly recommend the curry sauce! Great beer in tap list! It's a small space with counter order which totally fit the pub atmosphere! Highly recommend!! read more

Food and ambience was great, but the service was a little slow. The place was crowded, which usually means "good eats"

We love the Opossum's Tale! Food is tasty and plentiful. My favorite is the fish and chips. Beer list varies. My family likes trying new brews but I stick with Guinness. You order at the counter and food and drink are delivered to your table in a timely manner. It's often busy and crowded so we look forward to the expansion of their restaurant space. The atmosphere is English pub meets historic Jonesborough, which we love! read more

My wife and I visited Jonesborough and our visit to Opossum's Tale was wonderful. Our waitress, Emma, was outstanding and really made us feel welcomed and important. The food was delicious and served quickly. We just loved it and cannot wait to return. Thank you Opposum's Tale! read more

If you want something different try the The Opossum's Tale in Historic Jonesborough! I ordered take out so this is a small plate that I dished out at home (the servings were larger than you see.) I was craving some beans and greens and thought I'd try the gluten free veggie fritters with beet-ginger toum sauce. It was mouth watering good!! Check out their FB page and their menu on their website. They definitely offer food that's out of the norm around here. Judging by the crowd in there it's a welcome change! read more

We've eaten at The Opossum's 3 times. IMO, the best meal is the Ploughman's dinner, with the Dubliner cheese being the best part of the meal. Keep in mind that the place is small and usually crowded, if not packed. read more

A great little restaurant right off of Main Street with Good food, good atmosphere, and friendly staff.

Great food, good service, the atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. Great addition to the town. The fried cauliflower was hot and not great, the mashed potatoes were made with real potatoes and the gravy made the meal. Will definitely be back. read more
