Mellow Mushroom

Mellow Mushroom Gatlinburg is a laid-back pizzeria in the middle of downtown, serving stone-baked pizzas, calzones, and a long list of craft beer in a colorful, art-filled dining room. You'll find it at 903 Parkway, just south of traffic light #8. Look for the scrap-metal pizza guy statue out front.

The pizza

Mellow Mushroom's dough is made with spring water for a crust that's crisp outside and chewy inside. Choose from creative specialty pies, classic favorites, or build your own from a long list of toppings. A gluten-free crust is available, and gluten-free diners regularly recommend this location. Vegans can order vegan cheese and plant-based toppings.

Beyond pizza

The menu also includes calzones, hoagies, salads, wings, and appetizers, plus a kids menu. See the current Gatlinburg menu on Mellow Mushroom's website.

The bar

Mellow Mushroom is known for its beer list, with a wide range of craft and local beers on draft and in bottles, plus cocktails. It's a relaxed spot to unwind after a day on the Parkway.

The atmosphere
