Chick-fil-A in Sevierville is a great quick stop. I love their chicken biscuits with the little hashbrowns for breakfast, and their chicken sandwich is always a good choice too.

I ate at Local Goat in Pigeon Forge and had the shrimp and grits. I could have done without the gravy they added, but the dish was still good. The burgers other people in my party ordered looked incredible.
