We have been in business for over 25 years providing exceptional food, drinks, and experiences to people from all over the world!
My name is Richard Leudemann, I am the owner of this independently owned restaurant that offers very diverse menus designed by our Certified Executive Chef from the Culinary Institute of America. The staff here at Tellicafe works together and takes great pride in what we do.
Tellico Grains Bakery was established in 2003 by Stuart and Anissa Shull. Our breads are made fresh daily by hand and baked in our brick oven. See Bread Schedule for your favorites and call ahead to reserve. Our pastries are baked fresh daily in small batches. Selection varies depending on season. Call ahead if you would like us to reserve your favorite items.
Sandwiches begin at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday and are made to order on our fresh baked rolls and breads. Please allow extra time for toasted sandwiches.

It is our pleasure to provide you with delicious food in an inviting and friendly atmosphere.

Tellico Plains, Tennessee, is conveniently located about 1 hour south of Knoxville or 1 hour north of Chattanooga. It is the Smoky Mountain version of “Mayberry” and has just been chosen as one of the top ten most beautiful towns in Tennessee. We don’t even have a traffic light! What we do have is luxurious vacation cabin rentals. Nestled near the beautiful Cherokee National Forest, our Tellico Plains and Coker Creek cabins are privately owned. Each is unique, with mountain views, or woodsy privacy, creeks, lakes, “bells and whistles” and all solace you might need.
They are perfect for romantic getaways, honeymoons, family vacations, reunions or small weddings. There are cabins for 1 – 10 to sleep. In fact, there is a whole mountain of cabins for your reunion. Let us take care of your comfort so you can enjoy a ride above the clouds on the Cherohala Skyway, catch trout from the Tellico River, or view the beauty of Bald River Falls, or hike the many trails in the area. Most of the cabins have cozy stone fireplaces, fully furnished kitchens, satellite TVs/DVDs and grills outside. We have some cabins with internet access, pool tables, Jacuzzi Baths, and multiple TVs. Most have hot tubs on the deck for your pleasure. A change in Altitude creates a change in Attitude.
