Indulging in a homecooked meal is one of the world’s greatest comforts. No matter where you’re from or where you make your home, entering the warm house to the smell of something delicious and savory just goes straight to the heart. When you can find a restaurant that reflects the comforts of home, you come back, again and again. The Farmer’s Daughter is located in Chuckey, Tennessee, and it’s made itself a reputation as one of those epic eateries that give you a taste of home.
The Farmer's Daughter is a Green County gem, a Southern restaurant tucked away on the east side of Tennessee. The menu revolves around local southern favorites, attracting locals and tourists from the nearby Cherokee National Forest and across the nation.
Here you'll find that all meals are family-style, so you'll be making an order communally. The table will decide on multiple meats, veggies, sides and breads that all will have the chance to enjoy.
The dining room is spacious and homey, chic in design but truly southern in comfort. It's great for family gatherings or perhaps big groups. Of course, don't rule it out for date night, either. The Farmer's Daughter does a great job catering to folks and events of all types.
Perhaps what's most impressive about this Chuckey-based eatery is the focus it has on local, fresh and in-season ingredients. You'll find that a majority of the restaurant's ingredients are sourced from Tennessee farms or even the North Carolina Farmers Market.
The homemade, farm-to-table emphasis ensures that every meal here is a great meal. The skillet cornbread is truly melt-in-your-mouth good, and the fried chicken tastes just like grandma made it. Greene County has managed to preserve the cuisine of the deep south here in Chuckey, a grand accomplishment.
Thinking of bringing the kids? Do it! Family-friendly and spacious, this is a great spot to enjoy an evening out with the ones you love, old or young or anywhere in between. Adults eat for $14.59 plus tax, whereas children from 6 to 11 years old are charged $7.29 and kids 5 and under eat free.
