The bakery sells their scones—we now have 11 in our freezer—and other British baked goods such as Eccles cakes, flapjacks, and tiffins. If you’ve been to England, the bakery case is like a peek into memory lane. They also sell clotted cream, real clotted cream, so stock up while you’re here! There is also an adorable selection of British teacups and teapots that are really difficult to resist. Ye Olde Steak House racks up Best Steak House in Knoxville awards every year, but its fame extends far beyond the city limits. On any given night there may be folks from 20 states in the restaurant, feasting on porterhouse, prime rib, sirloin strip or steak burgers.

Dinner reservations recommended,
The eggs inside are bland and don’t hold up to the overly hearty pastry. Unfortunately, their sandwich and savory course here falls into the stereotypical bland British food. The egg salad with watercress on white bread and the salmon and cucumber both had mayo and the mayo was a very prevalent, overwhelming taste. You can try those and let me know how you like them.
Fast service,
This is a great chance to have a great meal with family and friends or have an unforgettable office party for any event. Attached to the entire restaurant building is a British store and bakery that sells anything British. Everything is imported from the UK and almost, almost, feels like walking into a mini Tesco, but more based in knickknacks and candy bars.
Review: Ye Olde Kings Head
They transitioned the pre-existing log building that was once an antique store into Knoxille's premier steakhouse destination. It's nothing pretentious, just a cozy rustic atmosphere. You'll still find your favorite steak dinners and lots of familiar faces amoungst the crowd, staff, and a few in the picture frames too.

A La Mode - Enjoy a scoop of ice cream with any slice of cake. The sausage was made with beef and pork and surrounded in a pastry. As it was beef, I opted against trying it, but Mom did and said it was okay but needed some mustard. And American mustard at that because I’m warning you now, British mustard has a lot of horseradish in it. Definitely will clear your sinuses before you expect it. The quiche had a strong pepper flavor in the pastry; you can actually see the pepper flakes.

We serve only bottle beer, but you can being your own wine and we charge a $2 setup fee per person. Monday's are $7 Burger Night you get a king size steak burger plus one side. Unfortunately for me, most of the sandwiches contained mayonnaise so I ended up not being able to eat them. And all the sandwiches were triple decker, supplying more surface area for mayonnaise.

Thankfully hot water was brought midway through so the tea was warmed back up and lightened to slightly remove the bitterness. We both went with Earl Grey, and can really say nothing other than it was a standard expected Earl Grey. I really don’t think any Earl Grey is going to seem special after Buckingham Palace Garden Party. I always knew about this British pub on a main street in Santa Monica. But it was only recently that I discovered that this pub also had a tearoom, and was housing a secret that nearly made me weep for joy. All entrees are served with house salad, your choice of side dish and HOT homemade bread.
This Iconic Knoxville Establishment Comes Alive During Football Season
One day Bundt came home and announced to his wife, Helen, that he had found the "perfect location" for their restaurant. In hindsight, he might have underestimated the hilly landscape, dysfunctional parking layout, or how much speeding traffic Chapman Highway would host. After some convincing, the family agreed to open a steakhouse. A community of friends and extanded family rallied behind the Kings to make this dream a reality.
The steak house has become especially well known to University of Tennessee Football fans. It's on the list of the 100 Best Things about Tennessee Football and the 100 Best Secrets of the Great Smoky Mountains. A full 20 ounces of Iowa prime grain-fed beef. Thank you Knoxville for voting Ye Olde Steakhouse as the "Best Steaks" winner in Cityview Magazine's "2021 Best of the Best"! We are excited to be your favorite destination for steaks.
The chocolate one was mildly better, but in general the petit fours should go the same way as the sandwiches. More than forty years, serving the best Iowa grain-fed feef has been customary. Thanks to our wonderful customers, a dream has become reality. We appreciate our customers, both new and old, and hope to serve 'steaks cooked to perfection' for many years to come.
