Tourists and residents alike stream into Jonesborough’s JJ’s Eatery and Ice Cream for a hot sandwich and an old-school ice cream sundae.

Owner Vicki Brown introduced Jonesborough, TN to the classic American-styled cafe in 2006 and often participates in town event promotions such as Scoop Fest, which is an ice cream tasting that requires the purchase of tickets in exchange for samples.

Meals include the fried bologna sandwich or classic burger paired with fries and a milkshake.

JJ’s Eatery and Ice Cream stays open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

It is past midnight, and bar-goers in downtown Johnson City, TN stumble through the doors of Mid City Grill, a bring-your-own-beer establishment.

The restaurant can seat several groups of guests and accepts both call-in and walk-in orders for take-away food.

Mid City Grill serves their infamous grilled hamburgers until 10 p.m., and they serve late-night grub for the after-dinner munchies.

Don’t eat meat? Mid City Grill has a vegetarian menu so the whole group can enjoy the late-night food run.
