Old Mill Pottery House Cafe and Grill

The Old Mill Pottery House Cafe and Grill in Pigeon Forge is one of those places where you instantly feel right at home. Nestled in the heart of the Old Mill Square (Pigeon Forge’s premier dining, shopping, & entertainment area), this charming restaurant combines the warmth of Southern hospitality with the comfort of down-home cooking. It’s the kind of place where you can kick back, relax, and enjoy a hearty meal.

What makes the Pottery House Cafe and Grill special is not just its welcoming atmosphere, but also its commitment to homemade goodness. The restaurant is famous for its fresh, made-from-scratch meals that are prepared with the same care and love you’d expect in your own kitchen. From the moment you sit down, you’ll notice the attention to detail—from the handmade pottery dishes that are crafted right next door at the Pigeon River Pottery to the friendly service that makes you feel like part of the family. They have a cozy dining room, as well as a lovely outdoor patio to dine on when the weather is nice.

When it comes to the food, you’re in for a treat! The Pottery House is known for its mouthwatering breads, baked fresh daily using grains ground right at the historic Old Mill. Whether you’re enjoying a slice of their famous cornbread with your meal or taking home a loaf of sourdough, the bread alone is worth the visit. But don’t stop there—the menu is packed with Southern classics and comfort food favorites. Their signature quiche, hearty pot roast, and chicken and dumplings are just a few of the dishes that regulars rave about.

And let’s not forget about dessert! The homemade pies, cobblers, and cakes are legendary, perfect for satisfying that sweet tooth after a hearty meal. The strawberry shortcake, in particular, is a crowd favorite, piled high with fresh strawberries and whipped cream.

On your next Pigeon Forge visit, be sure to try the Old Miss Pottery House Cafe if you're looking for a place to enjoy a delicious, homemade meal in a setting that’s as warm and inviting as the food itself. It's a true taste of Southern hospitality at its finest!
