If you’re looking to trade the hustle of the park for a sit-down meal with Southern charm, the Front Porch Café is a fantastic choice. It offers a cooler, quieter atmosphere without losing that signature Dollywood hospitality. This spot can get busy during peak lunch hours, so try to put your name in a little early or aim for a late lunch!
Fried Green Tomatoes & Mozzarella are a must-order appetizer. The tomatoes are perfectly crisp, and the addition of creamy mozzarella adds a nice twist to this Southern staple.
Pretzels with Queso are soft, warm, and highly addictive. The queso is rich and smooth—perfect for sharing while you wait for your main course.
Chicken Tenders and fries are a classic done right. They are hand-breaded, juicy, and usually a hit for both kids and adults who want something reliable and delicious. The Grilled Chicken is also well-seasoned and tender, while the Chicken Sandwich offers a satisfying crunch and great toppings.
The Front Porch Café excels at elevated theme park comfort food. It’s one of the best spots in the park to recharge your batteries before heading back out to the rides. And they have great items on the kids menu. They’ve got dessert too… including a red velvet cinnamon roll.

What a great dinning option for Dollywood. Very beautiful on the inside with the old country beams and huge windows. Are wait time of 20 mins to be seated was accurate.
The fried green tomatoes and mozzarella was a knock it out of the park dish that I will be dreaming about for a while. The burger was very nice for theme park food and they offer plenty of options of food especially for a very fried and southern themed food menu around the park in general.

The last time we visited Dollywood, the lines to eat at The Front Porch Cafe were unreasonably long. This time, during the Fall Festival, we got right in.
My vegan dining companion ordered the vegan steak (yeah, I have questions too!) and said it was outstanding. I chose a chicken breast sandwich which arrived on a double-pretzel bun, almost too much to eat when you consider the accompanying fries. It was satisfying, although not particularly flavorful. I give it 5 stars though, for the unexpected value of SO much food. See photo, it was l-a-r-g-e. Current menu price shows $16.99. In a theme park, that can be considered acceptable.
Now this is going to sound weird – but the water was delicious. You know how some water has a taste? Not here – and I’d love to know where that water comes from.

we had dinner while visiting to see the Christmas lights. walked right up and were seated. the food was great. the shrimp and grits with chorizo is amazing. The chicken sandwich came with fries or a side salad. we chose the salad and it was fresh and plentiful. The food here is always on point and we dine here every visit to Dollywood. the choices are plentiful from salads to sandwiches and entrees. Never disappoints and warm red velvet cinnamon roll for dessert OMG. amazing !!

Our server Carrie was so kind and helpful and she let me order the vegan dog from the kids menu no questions asked. My partner got the vegan steak and it was fine but we aren’t big fans of fake meat replacements. Most of the veggie options are just vegetarian, not vegan.

Burger was little more well done than I prefer. But my wife’s potato skillet was amazing. Also you have to get a butterfly pretzel best soft pretzel I’ve had. We went after Christmas during their busiest time and it was a hour 45 minutes wait for group of 7.

We stopped in to eat lunch while enjoying Opening Day 2023 at Dollywood. The restaurant is so pretty, and very clean. Our server promptly greeted us, and our food arrived quickly. I ordered the Southern burger, which was very good. The fries seemed to have been sitting around for a while, but if they had been fresh, this meal would have been a 10. I would definitely visit here again, and probably order this same burger.

This restaurant has us drooling even 24 hours later. We ordered a shrimp andoullie and cheesy grits , a very hearty pulled pork stew fried cauliflour and chicken fingers.
To start you check in at the front and we were told 20 minute wait but it ended up being maybe 5. We were sat and we perused the menu.
The oddest thing was they were out of the fish and no vegan dogs.

I really enjoyed everything here. The shrimp and grits and butterfly pretzel were my favorite. The pork with gravy was nice too. Finished with a red velvet cinnamon roll. My only complaint was that it was too chilly in there. Need to regulate temperature better in the colder months.

We really enjoyed the food here. The butterfly chicken club was delicious. It was a little awkward and messy to eat but really good. The burgers were also good. The sandwiches came with either fries, chips, or a salad. The prices here (and throughout the park) were very reasonable compared to other amusement parks. It was around $85 for 3 adult meals and 2 kids meals. In terms of the wait time, we came around 1:30 and were told it would be 30 to 45 mins for a party of 5, but it only ended up being about 20 mins. We would definitely eat here again.
