Dean's is a Knoxville-area institution serving classic American comfort food since 1952. My family stops here every time we drive through Oak Ridge. Kids actually eat well here, the pizza is great, the coffee stays hot, and you don't feel rushed out the door. The bakery case is worth exploring before you order.

Pro tip: Ask for a booth if you're coming with little ones. They'll actually give you one, and it keeps the chaos contained during meal prep time.
