Comfort Food & Craft beer in North Knoxville

The Black Dog, a North Knoxville gastropub where elevated comfort food, house-brewed craft beer, and killer cocktails share the same stage. The kitchen turns out bold, thoughtful dishes and pizza-oven pies designed to play perfectly with an impressive range of beers brewed onsite, from laid-back classics to boundary-pushing pours. But Black Dog doesn’t stop at beer. Knoxville wanted a spot that delivered the full setlist-- great food, craft brews, and cocktails with swagger, and that’s exactly what we built. 
Add in one of the most crave-worthy brunch menus in Knoxville, an iconic patio with live music during the warmer months, and a space that feels like your coolest aunt’s ’70s basement-- vintage, moody, a little rebellious, and finished with a modern edge. Every detail is intentional, every vibe dialed in, and every visit feels like an encore.

it's all about the beer

Craft Beer has never been this good.

Beer is the heartbeat of Black Dog Knoxville. Brewed onsite, our rotating lineup spans crisp classics, hop-forward favorites, and experimental pours made for people who actually love beer. Every brew is crafted with intention and designed to pair seamlessly with the food coming out of the kitchen or pizza oven. Whether you’re here for a familiar pint or chasing something new, there’s always something worth staying for-- maybe even one more round.
If it's good, it's

Black Dog.
