My family ate here because a friend told me about it. This place is so nasty! My daughter ordered chips. There is a large shelf unit on the wall with bags of chips. When I looked at the chips she picked out, the bag was out of date......WAY out of date! When I went back to the shelf to get... More

Great food and people to deal with. Sandwiches are made to order. Potato salad is the best in Gatlinburg

First of all, there's not a friendlier guy than the owner of this deli. And I'm sure that if we had had time to stay and eat there and get the "steamed" experience, it would have been much better. But as it was, we got one sandwich to go: roast beef on pumpernickel--thinking that we could share one just fine.... More

In a dessert of fast food chains with rude 16 year olds Parton's Deli is an Oasis!! Steamed hot dogs, Fresh sandwiches, and home made goodies like deviled eggs and fresh baked lemon pound cake. If you are ever in Gatlinburg, and are curious to see where locals "really" eat, give them a try.. You wont be disappointed.

We travel to Gatlinburg often and I had always wanted to stop into this little deli and give it a try based on the reviews here. I can't help but think that the positive reviews for this restaurant are shills! There is no way anyone could have a decent meal in this place. We ordered two typical sandwiches. The subs... More

If you want to enjoy something truly local and not a chain restaurant ... this is the place. We stopped in to pick up 2 steamed sandwiches to take for a picnic near the water at Roaring Fork area. The sandwiched were fresh and tasty. Also, be sure to try the deviled eggs and potato salad, which are homemade by... More

We really enjoyed a delicious sandwich made fresh. Very nice owner and thanks to his mother for the yummy deviled eggs and potato salad.

Hidden gem. It's like having a family in the business. Park past the Hillbilly Golf and walk the black back. Worth the effort. Try the chili dogs.

After having food from a few chain places, I decided I wanted something truly local. Parton's Deli is right around the corner from the cabin we always stay in and I never even knew it was there! Parking is a pain, so I had my better half pull off while I went in and ordered food to go. The location... More

I have lived in Gatlinburg all my life and this is one of my family's favorite places to eat. It's always been great to go and see a friendly face and have a fabulous lunch. Also a great place to grab food for a quick picnic. Love their steamed sandwiches, homemade side of deviled eggs, and cakes. This deli is... More
