FACE Amusement Group and Guy Fieri, the chef, restaurateur and TV host, have opened a food-focused family entertainment centre (FEC) called Guy Fieri’s Downtown Flavortown in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
The 43,000-square-foot FEC features a 300-seat restaurant and the ‘Freaky Tiki’ bar, as well as a 14-lane bowling alley and more than 10,000 square feet of state-of-the-art arcade games.
Downtown Flavortown is FACE Amusement Group’s seventh venue in Pigeon Forge, joining locations such as Arcade City, Rockin’ Raceway, Big Top Arcade and 7D Dark Ride Adventure.
“No matter where you go in this great country, I can put ya’ on the road to ‘flavortown’, real deal food and good times, that’s what I’m all about,” Fieri said. “But there’s one experience that I’ve been saving for a special time and place.”

“I’m talking next level, go big or go home, the ultimate party,” he added. “And I’m bringing the great people of Pigeon Forge with me to Downtown Flavortown.”
The menu will offer some of Fieri’s award-winning dishes, including ‘Trash Can Nachos’ (tortilla chips, pork, cheddar, black beans and pico de gallo served in a tin tower) and the ‘Bacon Mac ‘N’ Cheeseburger (bacon, mac and cheese, onion straws and donkey sauce).
“This is a perfect pairing of a chef-focused restaurant with a family entertainment center, and a natural extension of our relationship with Guy Fieri and his team,” said Bucky Mabe, CEO of FACE.
“Only the ultimate explorer of all-American flavor could mash-up this ridiculously exciting range of unexpected combinations that will be sure to turn a family night out into lifelong memories.”
Meanwhile in Pigeon Forge, Dollywood operator Herschend Enterprises recently revealed that it will cover 100 percent of tuition, fees and books for any employees who want to pursue further education.
