A good cup of coffee sets up a day in the mountains. These are the small, local spots we actually stop at: an owner-run shop off the parkway, a Wears Valley favorite with a porch made for lingering, and a couple of cozy cafes near the cabins.
I really like Lucky Brews. The owner is a great guy, and often behind the counter. It's small and local, with good coffee and a relaxed, friendly vibe in a cute part of town (Old Mill district) just off the parkway. The plant store next door is pretty cool too! Lots of carnivorous plants the kids will love.
This is a destination favorite in Wears Valley. Stop in for a quick pick-me-up, some pastries, or stay a while on their Adirondack chairs.
Surprisingly good coffee shop tucked in next to the laundromat, right by Jack’s Market (the nearest gas station, just to the left on 321). A handy first stop on your way in or out on the quiet Cosby side.
Tucked away from the hustle of Pigeon Forge’s Parkway, this family-owned cafe is a local legend. Homemade breakfast, pastries and a proper cup of coffee, away from the crowds.
Our cabins put you a short drive from all of these, so your first coffee of the day is sorted.
