Big Daddy's Pizzeria, Wood-fired pizzeria in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
Big Daddy's Pizzeria is a wood-fired pizzeria in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, where pizzas are baked in a brick oven. The dough is made fresh by hand each day and the sauces are prepared on-site from scratch.
The pizzeria was founded by the Johnson family and grew to several locations across the Smoky Mountains region. What started as a single restaurant now serves communities in three different towns.
The pizzeria blends Italian pizza-making traditions with American dining habits while keeping food preparation hands-on and fresh. Visitors experience a different food culture here compared to typical American casual dining.
The restaurant has an arcade area where guests can play while waiting, making it a good option for families. You can eat in the dining room or take your pizza to go.
The brick oven used to bake the pizzas is visible from the counter, so guests can watch their food being cooked directly. This open kitchen setup is not common among pizzerias in the area.
