I love the old mill it's so beautiful with the wheel, beautiful river and ducks .that makes me smile and happy.

[@ambu6478]

Your videos are so, so good! It's like almost being there! The Old Mill is one of our favorite places to eat! We can't come to Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg without eating at The Old Mill. Thanks again folks 👍!!!

[@3174jason]

I'm at work binge-watching YankeeintheSouth.
Thanks for letting me come along.😉🙄🖒.

[@Blueridgemountainlife]

LOVE the Old Mill, whenever we're over on that side of the Park hiking, we always try to stop by The Old Mill on the way home for dinner - Our kids love it!

[@Nancy-iv1yj]

The drone footage was amazing. The French fries looked yummy. Love your new hat, Dawn. Thanks for sharing.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Nancy

[@porkchop3656]

I’m sure you get tired of me repeating myself but thank you both for great quality videos and your hard work and effort. You both never fail to provide quality entertainment and informative content.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Porkchop

[@lesliejames6870]

From watching your video's my favorite place outside of the National Park (in town) is The Old Mill! It is so beautiful all around it .

[@mistysissell9467]

We stayed around the corner from the island. I think it was called theCreek ain’t. I could the wrong. I remember the room having the bathroom between the 2 beds.The room had a balcony on one and a view of the river and on the other a view of the go carts 3 story. You park under neath the hotel. It was nice.

[@suzannedeaton48]

We ate at the Old Mill last year( our first time) it was delicious plan on eating there again in May

[@suzannedeaton48]

Ps the corn chowder soup was the very best

[@aprilshook7635]

I was lucky enough to visit Poyner's Pomme Frites on the first day that they opened and I was addicted!!! Everything I ever ate there was great! I'm glad that you visited there and gave your review. So sad that they are closed now...hopefully they will open again soon.

Thank you Suzanne

[@lesliejames6870]

I would love to go there.last time I was there was in the 80's and alot has changed. At that time Gatlinburg was small and the only thing in Pigeon Forge was outlet stores and Dolly wood was just getting constructed. Love the videos!!!

[@patriciaarold1270]

The Old Mill Restaurant is real nice. The food is so awesome. The pot roast and the pot pie were so amazing. The stores that you were in was cool. Poynor’s Pommes Frites was great. The fries and bratwurst was real good. Great video. Keep up the good work. 😉🙂

[@zardonrich]

EATING AT THE OLD MILL RESTURANT LOOKS LIKE A RELAXING PLACE TO ENJOY A GOOD MEAL. OVER LOOKING THE RIVER.

Old Mill my favorite for 30 years always get the pot roast.

[@catscompany735]

Thanks again for another great restaurant review! Haven’t been to the Old Mill in a while, glad to know it’s still as great as ever! Now we can’t wait to try those Fries!!! Thanks again, guys! BTW...had to change my name due to it being the name of a Mod, on another site! Have no clue how CZcams let that happen! Use to be JustMe! Have fun! Hope to see you in the Smokies some time!

[@AngelS-br3vv]

[@TheCrazyPop]

I came close to buy some of those fries, now I wish we did. Great video

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Crazy Pop

[@cindynewman4014]

One of my favorites! I love the chicken and dumplings

[@rhondamehaffey5670]

Since Dawns had the chicken pot pie and the meatloaf from the Old Mill I was wondering if she would recommend one over the other. Coming to Tennessee in two weeks and definitely going to the Old Mill, The Peddler and Bennett’s BBQ! Thanks for all your awesome restaurant reviews! You both do a great job!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

I think I would order the meatloaf thanks Rhonda

[@rhondamehaffey5670]

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Danielle

[@mrsmagicalmonica]

Your videos are helpful. Can you add more detail when reviewing all food such as “tastes like” or “I would give it a 6 out of 10”? Will you review the new pirates dinner show when it opens?

[@yankeeinthesouth]

They don't slow filming inside dinner shows thanks Mrs. Magical Monica

[@lynnann2294]

I think we sat at the same table before , we love it there the food is so good..❤

[@stephendowdy6483]

Love all of y'all's videos. Will and Dawn y'all are the best. Love your personalities. Hope to run into y'all 1 day while me and my family is on 1 of our Smoky Mountain adventures. Love, peace and God bless. Stephen from Kentucky

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Stephen

[@hollygirlify]

Just discovered your channel! I go to Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg almost every year or two years. Speaking of Poynor’s Pommes Frites, how was the customer service? Were the employees friendly or welcoming? I’ve heard excellent reviews about their food but mixed reviews about their customer/employee service! Thanks again for your reviews-very helpful!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

They were good that time that we visited thanks hollygirlify

[@hollygirlify]

yankeeinthesouth thank you for letting me know! Will be done there in June!

[@axioswolf3821]

Been to Old Mill twice and the food was okay. But it was way overcrowded and the service was terrible both times. Never going back there again. There are too many good places to eat in the area to go someplace that hasn't appreciated our business.
Pomme Frites looks interesting and sounds like the perfect place for my family. I love me some fries, my wife loves German food and my son puts mustard on everything. We will definitely have to give it a try when we are there in July.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Sean

[@vegasstoker9647]

$14 for the Brat and fries. Holly Cow ! That's crazy. Looked good though.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Las vegs trip stoker

[@wgaue]

My husband and I ate there back on the 11th. I had meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans. My husband had fried Chicken, mashed potatoes and something else. Food was delicious. The only complaint, there was way to much food. LOL.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Wendy Aue

[@nancyk4595]

The fries looked really good. We haven't tried the fries there but looks like we should. Don't think Dawn liked the mustard that had the horseradish in it. I wouldn't care for it either since I don't care for horseradish either. The Old Mill and The Pottery House are both really good places to enjoy a delicious meal.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thanks Nancy

[@robertbabcock7110]

Great video! Noticed a painting or sign for the old mill that had people ice skating in front where the falls are. Does it ever freeze. Just curious. Thanks. Deb

[@awkwardbobvlogs2299]

Old Mill was a little underwhelming to me... it wasn't bad at all... just wasn't fantastic. Fantastic editing on this one Will. $14.92 is even more than a fair. That's robbery!
