Absolutely has the best food around. The atmosphere was great. We met Mr Charlie and his wife, who own the place, they are such wonderful people. They make you feel as if you were invited into their home, not their place of business. My daughter's had a blast fishing and we all enjoyed our food. We will be back. Make sure you take the drive for the most delicious trout and the best people.
Family fun with some great people! My son found this on TickTock and we made the trip to it. We’re so glad we did! This is the best food we’ve had in our trip and is definitely one we will come to again! So incredibly good!
We had good family fun today with these folks. The wife and kids loved the experience so we'll definitely visit again. The whole idea of catching your lunch and having it cooked fresh is too cool. I personally tasted the fish all three ways they cook it and they were great but the lemon pepper is the best. Thanks for a good day, we'll definitely see yall again!
This place was an absolute treat that we will absolutely come back to next time we are up this way! If you're reading the lower star reviews let me tell you it's all lies! The staff and owner were very nice the experience of catching your own fish was great. If you're looking for a picnic in a pristine park this isn't it but do not let that run you away because the food and memories make way up for that. The place could be jazzed up a touch but once again never judge a book by its cover because you're missing out tremendously.. I would most definitely recommend this place 10-10 to any and I mean anyone I meet! My family loved every minute of being there.
My family and I visited on Saturday, we are from Miami and visit Tennessee every year and this is the first time we visit the trout farm and we had a great time !! We met Derick which was very welcoming and made our time there very fun! I highly recommend visiting the trout farm, the atmosphere and food was great!! So much fun catching our own dinner!!!
Take a break during your vacation and check this place out. Fish for your trout and wait while they cook it for you. Fried, lemon pepper or blackened. Certainly not a fancy spot, but the food is yummy, and the people are super friendly. They teased my 21 year old when it was taking him a little while to catch his fish 😀 Cash only but ATM on site. You fish with a basic bamboo pole. Fun way to spend some time with my grown-up kids, but lots of little kids were fishing. Not a fish fan? They also have chicken.
If you had visited English Mountain Trout Farm in the past and decided to go back and visit, the first thing you will notice is how much more busy they have become. If you plan for this it will help make your visit more enjoyable.
We had to wait for about 20 minutes for our turn to use fishing poles. But after that my kids had a blast catching their dinner.
The staff were super friendly and the food was great!
We have been wanting to do this place for the last several years, but never seemed to have time to work it into our vacation schedule. Finally went for lunch today. They have a small pond where the "kids" can catch their own, or you can just oder off the menu. We went for the Trout, but we were told they had some great fresh river raised catfish, so we chose the catfish. No doubt the freshest best catfish that we have ever had. Sides were just OK. Prices are a little on the high side. It's worth the drive out while staying around Pigeon Forge.
Our son was the one who found this place and wanted it included in our vacation time. He is big on fishing! He caught his one for him and the rest of us ordered and ate the market fresh fish. The food is absolutely delicious! The whole experience is definitely one for some fun family time!
This was a really neat experience for our family. First time my 6yr old goes “fishing” I loved the controlled experience. So it was $5 to fish and an additional fee for a bucket. You are given a rod with bait. Then you fish. Once you catch a fish there is an employee ready to grab it with a net, hands, and unhook it. They’ll put it in the bucket and when you’re done fishing they’ll take it to the cooks to clean and cook. They do charge by the pound and each meal comes with a side. The meal fee I can’t remember so call in advance. Also this place is CASH only. There was an atm there but it was broken.
*warning* keep your eyes open this is a snake prone location. Fortunately for us the snake was only interested in the fish. It was a poisonous snake.
