My husband and I went in for lunch. We ordered the scotch egg and sheep balls and they were a nice appetizer. He ordered shepherd’s pie and I ordered the mushroom and steak pie, both came with excellent fries. For dessert we tried the sticky toffee pudding (HIGHLY recommend) and Tipsy Laird, also very good. This place is probably so fun at happy hour in the summer, we visited right after New Year’s so we’ll have to come back in the spring. Great decor/ fun vibe. It was easy to get to from the main drag of Pigeon Forge. We will be back!

This place is a gem! It’s a really lovely, cozy pub, with authentic English food/meals, and a truly comprehensive alcohol (spirits, wine, and beer!) list. Very clean, and cheerful owner and staff. Chef is awesome. Saw multiple couples having drinks and meals there, as well as families. There’s a righteous dartboard and lots of game options, w big screen TVs for sports games. It was a highlight for our 10 person group, aged 2 years old to 80 years old. Will definitely return! Thank you for the lovely time!

Visited to have a throw and a pint. No food just a few beers.
Server was prompt and very friendly. Located just outside of Gatlinburg in the arts district,it was nice to get away from the bustling downtown for a minute,plus alot of out of the way shops to explore on the way. A very eclectic pub just like its sister pub The Fox and Parrot. We will definitely visit next time we are in the area. Also pet friendly as a couple different guests brought their pooches along.

Cute little pub with an insane whiskey list, great draft beer selection and lots of wine choices. The fish and chips was top 5 Ive ever had. Cozy little spot and definitely worth checking out.

Food is good, service decent. Nice variety of dishes. Unexpected place for a pub. Try the toad stools (Fried mushrooms) they are excellent.

The only reason we left 4 out of 5 on the service is that apparently they need another server. Many happy customers and great atmosphere. Roger was especially gracious and helpful but there were so many customers there – he needs help. The food was wonderful and the drinks were wonderful. Very cozy and comfortable- loved the doggie friends who were welcome there as well. Very happy so much business for this place. Fish and chips were great and the Reuben sandwich and fries delish!

We called ahead to make sure we could get a table and Roger was super friendly on the phone. We arrived and there was plenty of seats. The bourbon list is EXTENSIVE. At least 350. For a small pub in Tennessee it was amazing. We had pretzels and beer cheese, curry fries and a sausage roll (just added to the menu) for starters and all three were so good but the curry was outstanding. The chef – Covy – used his own recipe and after tasting it I had the chicken vindaloo for my main so I could have more curry sauce. The fries were homemade and perfect. For mains we had the aforementioned chicken vindaoo, sausage rolls and fries, fish and chips and shepherds pie. My husband is British so he’s a bit of a snob about everything (LOL) but especially about British food and he stated that the shepherds pie was as good as any he’s had back home. The chicken in the chicken vindaloo was so tender. The fish and chips were perfect and again, the sausage roll was just like you would get in England or Scotland – if a little bigger. We are so glad we came across it when we were looking for places to eat. We were too busy digging into the food to take pics but we did snap some of the decorations inside.

Great atmosphere, service and food! Staff was extremely friendly and fun to talk with. Food was outstanding. We were told everything is made fresh and hand breaded and it definitely tasted like it. We were really impressed.

This is a Celtic pub that doesn’t bear any resemblance to anything you’d find in the British Isles but is a really great place to escape from the nearby tourist traps. I was there on a late May weeknight, easy to park and find a seat on the outdoor patio. I very much enjoyed sitting there by myself for an hour or so. There’s a very impressive drinks menu, lots of whiskeys but I am a beer drinker. I started with a Scottish ale on draft, pleasant but a bit watery. It occurs to me that the longtime British slur about American beer (like making love in a canoe) has been reversed in recent years. I moved to an Atlanta IPA, Sweetwater Day trip, much better. For food I tried their scotch egg appetizer, very tasty although needed some Worcestershire sauce to make it a little less bland, then bubble and squeak. My mother used to make it, and I think Google bears me out, this is supposed to be a frying pan dish, corned beef, cabbage and potatoes and anything you have leftover in the fridge. For some reason this was served in a bowl, very soupy. Tasty but not great. But to end upbeat, the service was excellent, I chatted to one of the regulars who was friendly and I am pretty sure if I come to this part of TN again, I’ll make an effort to come back.
