About Five Oaks Farm Kitchen

Five Oaks Farm Kitchen was created around the idea of welcoming travelers the way a family farmhouse once welcomed friends and neighbors. The restaurant draws inspiration from Dr. John and Blanche Ogle, whose home was known for hospitality, family gatherings, and down-home cooking.

The menu covers the full day, with breakfast, lunch, and supper options. Breakfast includes traditional egg dishes, breakfast meats, pancakes, and the restaurant’s large handmade cinnamon roll. Lunch and supper feature Southern favorites such as fried chicken, chicken and dumplings, pot roast, meatloaf, fried catfish, country ham, and farm-fresh sides.

The restaurant is also particularly suited to larger groups. Five Oaks Farm Kitchen offers two private dining rooms and group menus designed for family gatherings, friends, and groups of 20 or more.

Why Guests Love It

• A local sense of place: The restaurant’s story is tied to Sevier County’s agricultural history and the Ogle family’s tradition of welcoming guests into their home.

Insider Tips

Start with the waitlist when you’re heading over. Five Oaks Farm Kitchen does not take traditional reservations, but it offers a waitlist that lets guests add their names before arriving and monitor the estimated wait.

Consider it for a group meal. If you’re traveling with a larger family or group, ask about the private dining rooms and group menus rather than trying to organize everyone around a standard table.

Breakfast is an early-start option. The restaurant currently opens at 8 AM, making it useful for groups that want a substantial breakfast before heading toward Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, or the mountains.

The cinnamon roll is worth sharing. Five Oaks highlights its large handmade farm-size cinnamon roll, making it a practical choice for the table if your group enjoys sharing something sweet.

Allow extra time during busy periods. This is a popular sit-down restaurant, so a flexible schedule is helpful, particularly when traveling with a large group.
