While Dollywood is most famous for its thrilling rides and world-class entertainment, it is also a great place to enjoy some mouthwatering country cooking! Dollywood currently holds a Golden Ticket Award for having the best food of any theme park in the world. Running the gamut from barbeque to pizza, Dollywood’s restaurants truly have something for everyone.
Nevertheless, one dish stands head and shoulders above the rest at Dollywood: the park’s irresistible cinnamon bread. Served hot from the oven, the Dollywood cinnamon bread just might be the best thing you’ve ever tasted. The theme park sells approximately 350 loaves of cinnamon bread an hour!
The flour for the bread is ground onsite at the park’s nostalgic grist mill. Constructed in 1982, Dollywood’s mill was the first fully operating grist mill built in Tennessee in over 100 years. Visitors to Dollywood can find the grist mill (and the cinnamon bread) in the Craftsman’s Valley section of the theme park.

This cinnamon pull-apart bread is different from the Dollywood version in that theirs is topped with a powdered sugar glaze and served with apple butter. We tried it with both of these additions, and preferred this version much better.
The cinnamon bread is pretty sweet and adding a frosting on top was too much for even my sugar lovers. Apple butter, while delish, was just lost on this bread and we didn’t like the combination.

Dollywood's Famous Cinnamon Bread Review
What is unique about Dollywood cinnamon bread is the way it’s formed after the dough has risen. In order to achieve the gooey topping in each bite, slits are cut deep into the dough and then the dough is dipped into butter and then into a brown sugar cinnamon mix. The slits allow not only gooey glaze in every bite, but it makes it easy to pull off a section of the bread to eat.
