Cooper's Restaurant

We stayed at the hotel after a late flight before continuing on to our holiday. We were more than a little peckish after flying from the UK to Atlanta, then on to Knoxville and were very happy to see that the restaurant was still open. The food was so good that we made sure to stop back in for breakfast the following morning where I had my first ever biscuits and gravy! The food and salad bar in the evening were a delight, but the breakfast buffet was something else. There was a little something for everyone, and you will definitely not leave hungry. A well deserved five stars, and I would stay at the hotel again just for the food!

We were seated quickly but the food took over 30 minutes (my husband was hungry and let me know). It was just ok. Nothing to write home about. My girls liked the bread and butter but they didn’t bring that till after the food came. Maybe you need to ask for it if you want it in the beginning? My girls got the pasta and I got the cheese ravioli with Alfredo. It was pretty greasy and buttery so I didn’t love it as much as other cheesy Alfredo’s and my kids didn’t ask for more than the 1 bite which is super rare. Usually they prefer my food and take it all but they liked the bread better. Overall everyone said their food was just okay. This place is more for the convenience of those staying at the hotel. We only came because our friend was staying for the Pistol Ultra marathon. Then we forgot to tell them that and didn’t get a discount, whoops.

My wife and I had a bit of a long wait for some family that was coming in after us. We did not have hotel reservations but the staff not only in the restaurant but also the hotel was extremely friendly and nice. Allowing us to have an amazing meal and a place to relax while we waited. Allowing us that being said, I would especially like to thank our waiter. He was extremely patient and friendly with us. If I could give more stars than 5 I would.

After an unfortunate accident during my drive from California to Philadelphia, I became stranded in Knoxville waiting for my flight for 2 days. My was low and I had my cat with me. The staff was very understanding and hospitable. They offered milk for my ,and allowed me to eat and relax until my flight without equivocation. The food was delicious and the bartenders were awesome. I literally would fly back here just to eat...lol This was an gr8 experience for someone who has never been to Tennessee.

I recently had to get to the airport ahead of a winter storm for fear the road conditions would deteriorate. So, this place was my primary food source for a couple of days. I was served and greeted by Abby and two different Brittanys, I believe, as well as a host of other ladies, whose names I didn't get, during my stay. They embodied southern hospitality, checking on me regularly with smiles and kind words. Each one of the dishes were delicious, the salad bar and adjacent buffet were kept neat and clean, and I even ordered room service once. Pace yourself and save room for dessert, as the portions are rather generous. Prices were fairly reasonable for the items I ordered. Excellent experience all around!

I popped in here one evening to try their BBQ chicken quesadilla, and it didn't disappoint. I'm kind of a connoisseur of chicken quesadillas, and this was one of my favorite. Considering the place was practically deserted, I was expecting my waitress to be a little more attentive, but other than that, I really liked the place. They also have a salad bar which is included with the entrees. Whenever I'm in the mood for BBQ chicken quesadilla again, I will be back.
