Mellow Mushroom Knoxville - The Story

The exterior of the restaurant is painted blue and features a circular tower with colored glass windows above the entrance. A vivid mural spans the entire length of the building and a wrap-around porch provides ample outdoor seating. Inside, giant mushrooms tower over the spacious dining room that features sleek gray floors and metal accents. Large pendant lights hang over the waiting area. Above the bar, a blue and white mural stretches from one end of the room to the other, providing a contrast to the bright red bar top. A forest painting and curving ceiling panels round out the design and create a tranquil feeling in the contemporary space.

Customer Reviews

This is my first visit to a mellow mushroom. Thoroughly enjoyed the colorful and whimsical interior with the large mushrooms and murals both inside and out. The staff at this location was super friendly. Great pizza one of the best I’ve ever had. Recommend for lunch or dinner families couples adults and children alike

Great little place. Nice cozy atmosphere. Friendly staff. Quick friendless service. Did was excellent! 5 of 5 would recommend. Will be back.💝

Well put together ordering and completing orders with top notch friendly staff.. The restaurant seems very clean and always smells so wonderful inside.. Fun atmosphere... Personally I'm just not a pizza guy, so I was so happy to find their wings ain't bad either. Idk, this one wins for me

I live locally, I hate Cumberland Ave. The food and service was worth the drive in. I'm a true mushroom lover and that's the draw at the Mellow. Great soup and fantastic pizza. Can't find that mushroom soup anywhere else. Plenty of good draft too.
