Restaurants near Bone Cave State Park

We decided to try Thanksgiving dinner out this year and we like Puckett’s so we figured we would try it. Very busy which we were happy to see. We were seated right away and enjoyed a delicious meal. Salads were excellent and too big to eat! Meats included meat loaf, pulled pork, and of course turkey. With all the expected sides such sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, corn bread stuffing. We took leftovers home, along with pumpkin and pecan pie and apple cobbler. We were really happy with the experience, everyone was wonderful and we will do this again!

The new restaurant developed by chef Julia Sullivan is up and running, with excellent food, cheerful service and good wine (liquor to follow). The venue is the former laundry at Sewanee near the intersection of University Avenue and hwy 41A. It has a high ceiling and many windows with a full length bar and spacious seating. The opening went without apparent hitch and the food continues the delicious high quality of Sullivan's highly regarded restaurant in Nashville, Henrietta Red. It is a wonderful addition to the dining scene on the Cumberland Plateau.

Our first visit was quite fun. Plenty of people and activity give the place an energetic vibe. Attentive waitress and prompt delivery of food without being rushed. We will come back and try some of the other menu items.

Always a lovely experience…atmosphere is outstanding, a perfect date night or girl’s night out! Food is a step above traditional bar peanuts and drinks are delicious! Such a gem in Cookeville!

Houston , our waiter was fantastic. Food was great.
