Reviews
This place is both delicious and affordable for families. I ordered two foot long hot dogs, French fries, and onion rings. Not only was it a value, the food was done well it's a walk-up window, but they take your order quickly and make sure your order is correct before giving it to you. This is a no-frills place and the service is good. Stop in and get yourself a good meal that won't break the bank.
All I know is I ate there more times than I should've for the week I was there. The single and double burgers are excellent. I prefer the cod fish sandwiches over the catfish. Let's not forget to add the jalapeño munchers and my go to peanut butter shake on to every meal. Did I mention that they're open every day of the world, except Christmas until till 10 pm. If you're hot, be sure to put on your swimsuit and grab a towel and jump into the Tellico river while you're there. You won't be disappointed.
This place only has outdoor seating and it's alone a river bank. It's amazing for any outdoor enthusiast. I love it here and I will definitely be coming back. The food is great. For years I have traveled across the mountains from NC to enjoy the foot long hotdog here. It has its on special flavors that I haven't found anywhere else and it's by far my favorite! I love the simpler things in life. It's probably why I'm so obsessed with the lil place on the river. Good hot food, a cold drink and ice cream for dessert If the temperature outside is too hot take a walk or dip in the river. Or just kick back under the shade trees. Keep it simple and love it for what it is the beautiful outdoors
If you live in or around Tellico Plains, you probably already know about the beach. if you're visiting Tellico and you want burgers, fries, hotdogs, and that sort of fair then you need to stop in at the beach eat by the river and take the scenery
I did the Cherahola Skyway today, and this place is listed as a "don't miss" on every guide! It did not disappoint! The staff is friendly, the food is hot and delicious, and the shake was super thick and tasty. I love corndogs, and theirs has a great breading-to- dog ratio and is perfectly crispy. Love the riverfront seating too! I don't live nearby, but when I come back to TN, I'm definitely coming back. PRO-TIP: they only accept cash, and there are no onsite restrooms
