Best southern us restaurant in Gatlinburg, Tennessee (TN) 2024

Timbers Log Cabin Restaurant was the perfect southern experience. Staff was friendly, food was great, and the cabin itself was charming. We ordered the Biscuits and gravy and the French toast breakfast, both with the Timber’s bacon. Particularly the bacon, I’m not sure what they do to it (maybe brown sugar?), but it was fantastic. I think before a day of hiking next time we would order something more balanced 😅 but we didn’t have any complaints. The inside of the cabin is FILLED with little drawings from kids who have visited so that was neat to look at while we waited for our food. Definitely will be back when we come to Gatlinburg and the Smoky Mountains again! ~Cody
