    Corn beef hash, eggs and toast
    Dawn M.

    Country feel ambiance with that good ole mom n pop feel. Waiter was attentive and kept drinks filled. Great service! Country cooking when it comes to the food, no wow factor, just your basic country breakfast if that's what you're looking for.

    If you have ever ventured outside of the Gatlinburg ruckus and into Pittman's Corner, you'll find many local spots that aren't overpriced and that serve you best. Trish's Mountain Diner is no different! Easy to find, but just off the touristy path this diner offers you true traditional American fare. This mom and pop shop has a delectable breakfast menu, and a decent dinner selection. We enjoyed the breakfast most of all, eggs cooked just right and their biscuits were some of the best I've ever had in this area! Service was a bit stretched thin as it was pretty packed but still extremely friendly and attentive. During our first of 2 visits, we dined for dinner. Their service was extremely friendly; you could tell that a lot of these folks were family and it was a warm homey vibe. The burgers we ordered were decent, but were a bit overcooked. The fries were the prize of the plate, and we are planning to come back by to try some other dinner options and certainly for a solid breakfast. Our server, a younger gentleman, was extremely knowledgeable, quick, and friendly. You could tell he had a passion for this place! As a gay couple in the South, we are always curious to see the vibes of these places, and we felt more than welcome here. Thank you for an incredible experience and some delicious grub--We look forward to coming back in May!

    Been coming to the area for over a decade and while I've wanted to try Trish's this was my first time. It was an excellent experience and I will make it a point to go back. I was greeted immediately when I walked in. Got a seat quickly. Great atmosphere, nice country decor. Excellent choices for breakfast. I had the Mountaineer's Breakfast and ordered an additional side of grits. Food arrived quickly, and was cooked perfectly. Everything was delicious, cooked to order. I just wish I had more room for more.

    This food was absolutely delicious. If you want fresh home cooked food this is the place to go. We found this hidden gem online and it will now be a must stop when we visit. The server was super sweet and very helpful. This is a cute little place that is worth a visit.

Not only were the servers phenomenal (shout out to Nonna!) but the food was TRULY outstanding. The pancakes were so fluffy, they came out quickly, and the flavors were stellar. I am a traditionalist - so I stuck with my chocolate chip. My brother In Law tried the buckwheat pancakes which were flavorful, fluffy, and not too sweet. My husband had the wild berry crepes which were SO fluffy, the berries were perfectly sweet/tarte, and they had a delicious lemon custard on the inside. Truly a show stopper. The southwestern omelet truly surprised the daylights out of me. The flavors were SO beautiful. It was the perfect blend of flavor punch and savory bites. It's a TON of food. I would HIGHLY recommend getting an omelet, a side of pancakes (with chocolate chips of course) and then a side of bacon/sausage. This way you get to try everything and you have TONS of leftovers. The line outside looks intimidating, but service is quick, and they have a great system to make sure no one is waiting too long. It is 100% worth the wait though! The servers are knowledgeable and aren't afraid to give you recommendations especially if you tell them what you're looking for. I cannot wait to go back!!

The place was packed…read morewith people, which is always a good sign, and they have a pretty extensive menu with plenty of options to choose from. The pancakes were good, but the funniest part was ordering the unlimited pancakes. To our surprise, they brought out one giant pancake at a time! We could barely finish the first one, so the "unlimited" part ended up being more amusing than useful. We also tried the chicken and waffles, which were very good. The French toast was decent but fairly standard, while the sausage and egg omelet was excellent and one of the highlights of the meal. The biscuits were also tasty and complemented breakfast perfectly. Overall, this is a solid breakfast spot with generous portions, good food, and a lively atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Gatlinburg and looking for a hearty breakfast.

Instead of waiting in line at one of the popular ones downtown, we opted for this one. Conveniently, it was also closer to our cabin. We were a large group of 6 adults and 7 children. We waited about 5 minutes for a table. Our server took care of us well. She made sure that all orders were correct and that we split up the meal costs the way that we wanted. I ordered a short stack of pecan pancakes. Coming from OKC, I am used to seeing this item on diner menus back home but did not expect to see it in eastern TN. I felt like having some crunch in my pancakes, and this hit the spot. As you can see, their pancakes are sized to the plate. A short stack was plenty for my appetite that day. I requested and received sugar free syrup. The pancakes were served with butter that you can add yourself. Note also that they add a pinch of powdered sugar on top by default. If you would rather not have it, simply ask your server. You can't order any batters besides standard buttermilk pancake batter at this place. For buckwheat pancakes or crepes, you will need to visit one of the more popular places downtown. Prices were a little more reasonable than other restaurants we visited in Gatlinburg. For a calmer atmosphere and lower prices in a classic diner, this place can't be beat.

They literally have every fast food and chain dining experience on one block, but I didn't know that at the time but I'm tired of road trip Food so wanted to sit down for a good meal! Pulling into the parking lot and I was overwhelmed because it was huge and very crowded! We go to the desk and they tell us 25 minutes. This place was huge and very accommodating, they were getting people to their tables fast! We noticed two empty seats at the bar, so we opted to take them and had the pleasure of being served by Robert. He was attentive, made sure our waters were always full. He gave recommendations on his favorite dishes and was all around a great bartender! The guy working the other end of the bar was equally as professional. The ambience is a dark cool vibe, little trendy but people were dressed pretty casually! Answer the most important thing...The food! For an app, we got the beer, cheese fondue that came with apples, bread and pretzels. The beer cheese had a little bit of ooomph to it, which was refreshing because usually I'm not a big mustard person. The pretzel bites were incredible crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The apples were fresh all around the appetizer for 3 to 4 people so we took extra home. I ordered the 10 ounce sirloin cooked, medium with the web sweet potatoes and a side Caesar salad for a three dollar charge which ended up being a full-size salad! It was super fresh and gigantic for a side salad. The steak was cooked perfectly, in the middle with an insane sear. Their house, butter that they put on it truly elevated the flavor profile. I tried the sweet potatoes mashed and they were enjoyable, but I do not enjoy a sweet side with my food so I knew I was going to donate them to my husband and he said they were incredible, the flavor was definitely there just not my cup of tea, but I knew that from the beginning . He got the Caesar salad with grilled chicken! It had so much flavor and tastes incredible but yet melted in your mouth it was the most tender chicken I've ever had in my life, and the flavor was all there! Not even the slightest bit of any kind of dryness. One of the best bites of chicken I've ever had.! He ordered the bison meatloaf to go, and that comes with caramelized mashed potatoes and fried onion straws.... It smells incredible and I will update when we try it . * UPDATE: best meatloaf ever!!! Based on the quality/ experience on a very busy night- everything was phenomenal and I will return. Service 10/5 Food 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Value 5/5
