After a morning on the trails, the restaurant at the Lodge is the park’s sit-down place for lunch or dinner. Its windows and patio look toward Fall Creek Falls Lake, so you can stay inside the park rather than drive out for a meal.

Tennessee State Parks currently lists lunch and dinner service 11 a.m.–8 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m.–10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

Check the menu before you go
See the current menu linked by Tennessee State Parks. The park may change dishes, prices and service, so use that official menu and the restaurant’s official page for the latest details.
Plan the rest of the day
If you are here for the waterfalls, allow time for the drive between overlooks and the Lodge. Our waterfall guide and hiking guide can help you choose a route that fits around lunch or dinner.
