Haymaker Farms - Harrogate

We use to come here a good bit when camping in Cumberland Gap but it's been about a year since our last visit. Last time we were there they had an evaluator going through the place to try and figure out how to improve the food and service. Well, they must have taken the evaluator's advice. Coleslaw was overly creamy and sweet, baked beans tasted weird and had ground beef including some large almost spoon size chunks, catfish wasn't nearly as thick as previously, and the hush puppies had not texture either outside or inside. This is a shame because the coleslaw use to be a good balance, the hush puppies had the perfect outside texture with a great sweet cornmeal taste inside, the beans were somewhat plain but with a wonderful taste, and the catfish were thick enough so the meat was thicker than the crust. All of this was enough that my wife before even finishing the meal said she was disappointed and won't be coming back. That says something since we use to eat here two or three times during each of our several yearly trips to Cumberland Gap. Oh and on top of the all the negative food changes, the prices went up and the lunch specials disappeared. This we could handle because everything is going up, but only if the food still tasted good which it wasn't..

This was the first time visiting since new management took over, and I must say we were very disappointed. The prices have doubled. The food quality was definitely not as good as it once was, if I am paying $50.00 for a meal I expect better quality food. $4.00 for a side of fries. $8.00 for two small pieces of catfish. $3.00 for a fountain drink. $13.00 for a dinner plate that didn't include the drink. These prices are double what they were not long ago. The staff was nice and friendly was the only good part of the visit. P.s. if you are gonna charge these prices maybe get some bug zappers.
