Snoring Bear Diner (Heartwarming) Walland Tennessee - Smoky Mountains

We traveled from Pigeon Forge to Walland Tn to go to this tiny diner. The story behind this place will touch your heart. The drive is so beautiful and the food absolutely amazing so the trip here is worth it. Let us show you around this amazing place.

That is some amazing and unique food selections. I've never heard of a lot of those combinations. I feel I gotta say though, for the level of uniqueness in this place it sure does not look like it's in a prime location. I so hope it is doing well. People are zipping by so fast a person would never even know the place was there. Cool choices in food tho. Safe travels!!!💕

Guys, first off congrats on reaching the 25K milestone. Here's the good news. You're gonna be at 50K by Christmas. Don't make a liar outta me. :) LOL. Anyway, I love small mom & pop restaurants. Their the backbone of our economy. Those pancakes looked so good I felt like taking a bite. And you're right, your eggs were done to perfection. Not too runny. The back story is very sad. No parent should have to bury a child. Keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing your future travels. Your friend Mike.

Loved that ride through the country/mountain to this restaurant. Both your meals looked so fantastic that I would have had a hard time choosing one over the other, and would have probably ordered both those entrees at the same time and would have taken one of those home. That cheese cake looked awesome too! Karaoke would have been fun too!

Thanks for that gorgeous drive through the mountains. Pure heaven and so peaceful! I've always wanted to try Root Beer BBQ Sauce! Yum sounding! I was for some reason expecting you to get corn casserole - I know you love Corn, John (I'm not a pimento fan, so I would have sadly skipped my beloved mac & cheese haha). Also for some reason I was expecting Bobbie's garlic cream sauce to be red with the cherries - when I pictured it, it looked different than reality. hehe The cherries are a great and unique idea for the chicken (though they kind of looked like mushrooms!). They have a nice menu and it is such a cute little place! The prices weren't bad at all - I laughed because in one video your soda was $3.99 and here it is just $1.39. You never know...
