Dining at the Wilderness
The Wilderness at the Smokies has five dining areas to satisfy your cravings!
Restaurants
If you have the time sit down to a home-style family dinner after a long day in the waterpark, you will enjoy the diverse menu at both the Hidden Trail and the Thirsty Miner restaurants! Breakfast and dinner buffets make it quick and easy for the entire family to get what they want. Check seasonal hours when making reservations.
Both restaurants also features a bar area serving gourmet coffee drinks, fountain drinks, beer and cocktails.
Snack Shops
Looking for a quick snack? Stop by the Coyote Cove Cafe, The Grizzly Grill or the Marketplace Deli! Enjoy favorite snack items like hot dogs, sandwiches and chicken strips along with a refreshing cold beverage while never leaving the action of the waterpark!
