“I’ve been a big fan of the Pigeon Forge area for years,” said Chris Blair, owner and operator of The Listening Room. “My wife grew up going there on vacations. It has become a spot for our family. Just the Smokies… we love it.”
Blair said his goal was to expand the business, and the Pigeon Forge area fit the bill for a second location. The business recently broke ground in Pigeon Forge’s Mountain Mile on Teaster Lane.
According to a press release from the business, “visitors to The Listening Room Pigeon Forge can expect 1-2 live music rounds per night alongside a full menu of American cuisine and a robust cocktail list. As doors begin to open this summer, the venue will deploy a full register of existing safety standards, including reduced capacities, sanitization schedules and tables spaced six feet apart.”
Blair said he hopes to have the business open in June.
