    The show was very good. Lots of talent there. Funny. Wait staff was excellent but food was a huge disappointment. Chicken was dry. Potatoes were barely warm and no butter. Dessert pudding was gritty.
    Howdy Sandy. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the show but are disappointed that the entire experience did not meet and exceed your expectations. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

    Great time with friends.
    Wonderful experience at this dinner show. We ate fried chicken, corn on the cob, a wonderful creamy soup, pulled pork, cole slaw, mashed taters, and pudding. The show was fun and entertaining. A bit pricey @ $81 with tax. Went with friends and had a blast. Would do again.
    Howdy Ted! We're glad yuins had a wonderful time, thanks for the great review!

    Fun Hatfield/McCoy experience
    Very nice dinner show. Chicken, gravy, coleslaw, mashed potatoes, pork BBQ, corn on cob, creamy soup, rolls and homemade dessert. Very tasty! Plenty of refillable drinks too (ice tea, soda or water). Show is funny and involved audience at times. Can see show from all seats!
    Howdy! Thanks for the amazing review! We're happy to hear you enjoyed the entire experience!

    Fun for all ages
    A rollicking fun evening show starring the fabled Hatfield and McCoy families. The story was cute and the performers were good. The food was OK, generous portions easily fed the group. Lots of souvenirs available. The venue was full so recommend purchasing your tickets well in advance of when you want to go.
    Howdy! Thanks for the great review! We're glad y'all enjoyed yer time with us!

    A fun experience
    One of the three main dinner shows in Pigeon Forge. Starts at $60 a person and works up from there. I suggest going with the cheapest option. Up charges for "better" seating, but there really isn't a bad seat in the place. Smaller theater with a couple of big screens, so you can see everything from all of the tables. All you can eat dinner, served family style. Food was decent at best, but you're not going there for the food alone (hopefully). Soup was the best option. Dessert was either chocolate or banana pudding. Neither was good. The show was entertaining. Clean, family comedy show that had music, dancing and a fun skit. An overall enjoyable evening.
    Howdy Rick! We are glad you enjoyed our show! Thanks for your review!

    Better than expected
    What a pleasant surprise. I did not expect to laugh from the beginning of the show until the end…..the mayor’s one-liners and witty impromptu responses will keep cause many chuckles. All of the cast were outstanding in song and dance. And the meal before the show was quite good. Minor negatives: seating in the far right side in the McCoy section was not that good.
    Howdy! We are glad to hear our show exceeded your expectations. Thanks for your review!

    Overall, an enjoyable evening
    The chicken dinner was actually pretty decent! Nothing fancy, but it fills you up. If you are a slow eater you may feel rushed to finish up before the show starts. The show itself was good, clean family fun.

What a surprisingly great, funny show! I’ve seen many shows on and off broadway, cruise ships shows, Las Vegas shows, and this was up there for the price paid! Food was great and tasty. Water portion, pyrotechnics, and comedy was well thought out. Come an hour or 45 min early as the ticketing in the gift shop is chaotic, even for those who purchased online. Photo ops before the show slows the flow of crowd down. Would be great if shows could scan the online tickets. We had a family of 6 cut in front of us and this made many people in line very hateful. Bring cash to tip your servers as they don’t accept credit cards. Alcoholic drinks not included.

This was our first time seeing the Hatfield & McCoy Christmas show, it had lots of fun dancing, acting/fighting and music just like the original dinner feud! In addition to the great entertainment the food was really good too! It included all you can eat crispy fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, cole slaw, rolls, soup and dessert, you definitely get your money’s worth! There were 4 of us & we couldn’t even finish the first pails of food our server brought us. They also have moonshine beverages and beer for purchase. The Hatfield and McCoy dinner show is family friendly and with this season of covid they did an excellent job keeping patrons socially distanced.

We went here instead of the Dixie Stampede which we already saw twice. You get checked in really fast and dinner starts coming as soon as you get seated. For the price you get Cream of Vegetable soup, rolls, a bucket of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, shredded pork which they call possum, soda and pudding. Our server was great. Every seat is a good seat. The show was entertaining and funny and involved some audience interaction. My recommendation though is to do the 5:00 show and skip lunch and combine lunch and dinner because you get quite a feast so show up hungry. This is why we all need to get a vaccination to enjoy shows like this.

I've been to several dinner theater shows including the Dixie Stampede and Midieval Times and thought those shows were entertaining and worth the price of admission. Having seen those before, I thought we'd give this one a try with just the wife and myself. We were both pretty disappointed and feel like this should have been a $65 ticket when it was nearly 2x that price. The food was just okay and the wait staff have a LOT of people to bring food out to so you won't get much attention from them. The show consists of some basic bluegrass music (nothing really impressive) and some basic tap dancing (again, nothing really impressive). I think the people might have been quite talented but they really don't have much time to show it off because there is a basic story about the H & M feud. The comedy is very "my pants are on fire" kind of comedy so while very small kids might like it, it really isn't very entertaining for the parents. Characters running around fake kicking or hitting the other family, all while cracking very basic "country" jokes was just painful. The highlight of the performance was when they bring out some dogs and let them jump into a pool catching toys...but this only lasts a couple of minutes. We were extremely happy that we didn't have our 3 kids with us or else we'd have spent a small fortune and really not gotten much entertainment out of it at all. When you're at a show with lots of animals that are well trained, you feel that the high price is somewhat justified just in the maint and upkeep of the animals and the huge facility. When it's just a small number of stage actors and performers, it feels dramatically overpriced.

My husband really wanted to see this dinner show, and I planned ahead and purchased tickets online for our family of four for the second day of reopening following COVID restrictions being lifted. They had things down to an art for social distancing, cleaning, etc. We had to wear masks in the common areas (gift shop, bathrooms, etc.), but once we were inside the theatre we removed our masks and sat at our tables, which were placed six feet apart. The servers work very hard here to get food out quickly and tables cleared before the show starts. It’s important to arrive at least thirty minutes prior to showtime, preferably 45 minutes to give yourself ample time to eat without feeling hurried. The food was good, not amazing, just typical southern fare you would get at a buffet or local homestyle food joint. The service from majority of the staff was amazing, I saw how hard they worked and it was fascinating to see the coordination and teamwork that goes into the whole production. That being said, I think we just caught our waitress on a bad night. She complained most of the time, was not very friendly, and overall just put a damper on our experience. She would ask us if we needed something, but wouldn’t wait for our answer and would move on to the next table. When we were leaving I told her thank you for everything and she gave me a half-hearted, surly reply. For the amount we paid for dinner and the show, plus the amount I tipped on top of this, her service was so disappointing. I know this is not the case with all wait staff because I saw the level of service provided to others in the rows above and below us. On to the show...amazing talent! These folks are great at what they do! The singers, the dancers, the stunt people, the actors are all outstanding. They put their heart into their work, and it is evident. We really enjoyed the show, and would go see it again minus the dinner portion. For some reason our show didn’t have divers or animal acts, like was mentioned online. I guess things are modified due to COVID. Overall, I would give the show portion a 4.5 out of 5, and the dinner a 2.5 out of 5 mainly due to our service experience and average food selections. If you haven’t done a dinner show before, this is a fun experience you should try at least once with your family.

This is our 2nd visit here. The first was a couple of years ago. Show was good and food was great. We raved about it so much our family wanted to go on this visit. Chicken was crazy dry and tasted like it was cooked hours earlier. Pulled pork was fatty and drowning in sauce. Corn on the cob was just gross. The show was cute. It has changed slightly since the last time. I was embarrassed after I raved about this place. Would not recommend, and if someone goes it is nowhere worth $56.00 a person.

It was a rainy day so we needed something else to do to pass the evening instead of walking around Gatlinburg. We decided on the Hatfield & McCoy dinner show. We couldn’t buy 2 tickets online min was 3 tickets so we had to call the box office to get our tickets. We arrived and were directed to the ticket booth to get our tickets. Then we went to stand in line to get into the theater where you were herded into massive lines on either side of the building into two single file lines. Everything from the time we got our ticket to the show starting seemed a bit chaotic for the workers. Servers frantically trying to wait on people as they were seated in their row. If you got your picture taken before entering a lady comes over and tries to sell the picture along with flags, cowbells, hats for the show. The food is average at best. No legs in the chicken buckets. Breast and thighs only. Disappointed with that. The soup is pretty good but nowhere Is it clear what the soup actually is. The dried soup you can buy in the gift shop says creamy shop. Corn very over cooked and coleslaw has little flavor. They want you to tip your server before the show officially starts because you do not see them again once the show starts. The recommended tip is 3.50 pp in your party. The show is alright not great. A lot of people say it’s funny but I barely laughed. The singers are ok. The jokes are close to being good but just not there. When you arrive the last show is trying to leave and when you leave the same. This makes the parking lot a bit difficult with not sure who is trying to come and who is trying to leave. Overall it wasn’t worth the price and we would not come back. Once is more than enough.

Visited with my family while on vacation. They are practicing social distancing and only operating at 50% capacity.
The show was ok. It is a bit disappointing for the musicians to be using a track. It was quite obvious that the girl with the mandolin wasn't playing. She did have a great voice though. I appreciated the "Mayor" playing his banjo. The actual show was entertaining, but definitely not to be used in any way as historical facts. The best part was the dogs and the camera shots of the crowd before the show.
The food is supposed to be "all you can eat", but only for about 20 minutes, and only if your server can get it to you. I'm sure the pandemic has played a part, but the food was average at best. Chicken skin was really greasy but the meat was incredibly dry. If you want beer, you need cash in hand, no tab til the end of the show. Dessert is instant pudding with cool whip style topping.
You have to wear a mask from the time you get in line until you sit at your table and they search your bags for weapons. They don't allow weapons at all, even witha concealed carry permit.
I doubt that we will go back, but it was ok once.

Let's see shall we start positive or end positive? Let's start with the good, I suggest you get tickets as soon as you decide this is an activity you are doing it might improve your seating. The line to get in once doors open moves quickly, they do a nice job of getting you in, there is a bar and it serves adult drinks, a bonus for me and my wife. Everyone is wonderfully polite and the entertainment is a good show. It was a good spin on an old tale. It was the best part of the evening.
What we did not like was the rushed feeling of the meal, you sit down you are served, the servers are also cast members and stage hands so for us it felt more than rushed it was not an enjoyable pace. It's all you can eat and you pay a decent amount for dinner theater the meal is half the reason you are there. So you better eat fast to get seconds, cause it's on the table and off the table fast. Other dinner shows have a much better pace and allow you to eat and enjoy the show and you have all the time you want to feast. It's a void in service as well as your server is busy during the show. Where we sat it was hard to see the show the table is sideways to the stage for most of the tables and you are looking across the table at your family to see the show you have to turn to right or left, the person at the rail will block those af the aisle and you have to move to the opposite side of their head as they are in your way to view the stage. The food could have been great but ours was over cooked.
We have a rule that we give things like this a other chance but change if we can the things that we didn't like. So we will make our reservations months in advance to get splash zone or seating that faces the stage, we will arrive 45 minutes before the show not 30, we will go to the 5pm show not the 8 and if the food and serving experience improves I will post about the better experience.

It may be all you care to eat, but you won't care to eat much of it. With a recent corporate buy-out, quality of food has sure suffered. 4 shows a day, and they church out a lot of meals but clearly no one is supervising. Chicken was OVER COOKED, Greasy, NO SALT, & Dry. Pork Barbeque was barely heated (we're sure it comes pre-cooked & frozen) and was very dry & hard, and "banana" pudding had no bananas or wafers, just chemically flavored out of a #10 can. No comment cards available, no mention of a manager, and their email address is no longer valid, so don't complain!!! Pay your $60 a person & shut up as your expensive bad meal goes into the garbage.
