Great place to stop if you’re ever in the area. All the beers I tried were amazing and it was self pour so you can taste as much as you want. They allow outside food so pack your cooler and come enjoy some delicious beer.

Being from Michigan, I was finally able to squeeze this in on a road trip, and it was definitely worth it. Everything you could possibly need is all right here, food, coffee bar, beer, indoor/outdoor seating, clothing, patches, stickers. The Scottish Ale was really good, as was the pulled pork from the food truck or back. This place really is a gem. 8/4/23

My first visit to the Brewery. No food truck these days. We ordered a cheese pizza and it was really good. Next time I hope to ride the BOTD.

Great stop after ripping through the mountains. They have shirts and other novelties. They have food truck in the back. Had a patty melt a little on the pricey side but it was pretty good

Had an absolute blast riding the Back of the Dragon today! Beautiful weather and roads. The food truck though... *chefs kiss* 5 stars for the food as well. Also loaded up on merch because why not?Went back again for more good food and great roads. Tried a frozen lavender lemonade and wow! New favorite drink

This is a very nice tourist stop after the ride across the mountain. There are many souvenirs to choose from to remember your ride. Shirts, hats, patches, stickers, etc. A bit pricey as any tourist stop is. Snacks and drinks are available as well as several choices from a food vendor and adult beverages. Nice patio area to eat and relax before heading back out. Restroom is very clean. Nice area for pictures on the side of building.

This gift shop and coffee shop is a must if you ride the Back of the Dragon. The iced coffee was so good. There is also craft beer on tap. It is impossible to list all the cool biker stickers magnets and shirts. Stop by and get your well earned souvenir. See you there, next time I best this challenging road.“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”‭‭John‬ ‭14‬:‭6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Going with three stars to start with my first experience hereI would rate higher but i view there is always room for improvement in any venue. With that said. The staff was extremely courteous, the craft beers werent too bad but nothing i was overly fond of. The pricing for the dragon merchandise weren't bad but a bit higher than i thought reasonable on certain items.The ride was very fun, best done with close friends, brothers and sisters of the wheel.Always ride within your skill level! 🤘

Nice shop and photo op with the massive dragon. The BOTD ride was beautiful. Mostly slow speed tight turns, but there's a few places where you can open the throttle.

Food truck is delicious. $20 burger combo. But trust me it’s a $20 burger. Definitely get your money worth there. I don’t mind spending money if it’s worth it. The burger was humongous.

Nice stop and really a, must do, if riding the Back of the Dragon. They have the typical tourist stuff, snacks, hats, t-shirts, etc... It is definitely worth checking out. The dragon is great for some photos with your bike too.

Jamie showed us some down home southern hospitality by opening her doors for us. Great stop when you're on the Back of the Dragon trail.

What a fantastic visit! Truly a destination for any motorcycle adventure. Staff and owners were more than gracious, friendly and kind.The shop is busting full of great merch, coffee, cold beer and food truck, not to mention a weekly evening band where conversation and laughter flows. Can’t wait for my next ride to The Back!

Such a great place in a tiny town to chill with some beer or coffee after a ride! Great beer and tons of souvenirs.

Views were amazing. Awesome ride thru some great twisties. Even Chucky approved. Mus t stop at the store in Tazewell for a patch, sticker or t-shirt.

I grew up in Tazewell back in the 60's, 70s and part of the 80's before moving out of state. This road wasn't called back of the dragon. It was the road to get to Hungry Mothers State Park. It was a great ride then and still is today. I recently returned home and took rt 16 from Marion to Tazewell. This brought back many fond memories. And of coarse this was the road to go play Marion on Friday nights
