The. Best. Breakfast. In. Town. Try something off their daily special board. OliBea uses local produce as much as possible. The wait for eating here can get pretty long so go early to get a seat!

Delicious burgers. My husband recommends the Farmhouse Burger. I recommend adding on the Duck Confit Fries. Get seating ahead of time by using Yelp.

Coffee and bagels- what more could you want? Friendly service and experience baristas make this a frequent hang out for Andy and I. There is a great seating area with hammocks that is open to the outdoors.

Other Delicious Goodies

Delicious confections. Magpies takes special orders for events, but has a couple glass cases stocked with treats for people who walk in. Cupcakes, pies, and cheesecakes are a few of the desserts you'll find.

It isn't a trip to Knoxville if you don't go to Cruze Farm Ice Cream. All their ice cream is made locally from their Jersey Dairy cows. The ice cream is rich with a rotating list of flavors to choose from.
