Calhoun’s Bearden is located at 6515 Kingston Pike, very close to I-40/I-75 (Papermill Road Exit) in West Knoxville. This is the home of our custom-built, steam-heated microbrewery where we handcraft specialty beers to the taste of Tennesseans. The brewery’s copper kettles can easily be seen from most seating in this contemporary atmosphere. Calhoun's has become a place where friends and family gather to celebrate what’s good in their lives while they sample some of Tennessee’s best BBQ, ribs, steak, and sandwiches. So come on down and experience the best hospitality and BBQ around.

Had Thanksgiving dinner at Calhoun's yesterday! I love that they offer a real turkey and dressing meal along with a piece of pumpkin cheesecake for a very reasonable price. Tasty food and no cooking or cleanup required. Will do again next year!

Started with wine being served in a dirty glass. Sent that back. Sat down at 6:30. Appetizers didn’t come out until 7:15 after being told the kitchen was backed up. We had ordered our dinner at the same time. By 745 I went to the manager. At 750 our server told us our dinner was 2 minutes away. At 8:00 it was served in shifts. All the food was cold, dry and not edible. When the manager came over to us he said “I was thrown to the wolves”. Completely inappropriate. Do not go!

Obviously understaffed. Waitstaff tried but given too much to handle so service was poor. Had to ask for silverware more than once. Food was subpar and certainly not worth the cost. Most definitely will not eat again at this location.

Our server was fantastic! However, it took a long time to get our food and the restaurant was not busy at all. The fountain drinks did not taste good. The ratio of soda water and syrup was off it seemed. The food was okay. But my Hickory BBQ Burger was disappointing. There was no bbq on yet. The fries were great though. The Key Lime Pie was not good. It was stale and obviously had been frozen. But the Banana Pudding was good. So, our experience was just okay. Definitely not what one would expect from Calhoun’s. But, again, the server was had was excellent!

I’m happy we dined here. It’s quite a few notches above a Texas Roadhouse. The bread basket was great and the steaks were cooked perfectly. I’m so annoyed when they’re over cooked and this place got it right.

It was "fine" but we won't make a point to come back. Quality of food was ok but tasted mass produced or packaged. Our server was completely out of it and unfriendly even after I tried to joke some. We made reservations but were told we'd have to sit in bar area anyway.

Our server was on point, but was not friendly! We would ask for things and he would not acknowledge we said anything, but then would return at a later time with those items. He lacked in customer service to be a server.

New Server was waiting on me, 15 mins before I was offered something to drink, even though multiple guests who came in after me received their drinks before my drink order was even taken. Never received things like extra napkins, and only one refill as i was waiting to leave. Check out process took 30 minutes, about 10 after I took the check and tried to pay the greeter. I missed the first quarter of the game due to all the waiting. No issue with the new server, he was still learning. My issue is he was basically thrown to the sharks with little help that I could see.
