However, we have never reported a restaurant closing its doors following […]

The Possum brings comfort food and country charm to Maryville | Exclusive
On an unassuming backroad just beyond downtown Maryville, a rustic country restaurant is hiding in plain sight. It's easy to pass if you're not looking. But at noon on a Thursday, the parking lot was completely full. The Possum became one of Maryville's newest restaurants when it opened last month at 313 N. Houston St., serving hearty meals and big portions. It's a welcoming spot, with character around every corner. Co-owner Jack Townsend was "looking for any building with a parking lot." What he found was a red brick building constructed in the 1930s that for decades served as doctors' offices, and what he built inside is an atmosphere that feels equal parts Smoky Mountains lodge and Sunday morning church service. With a menu full of meals that taste like dinner at Grandma's house, Knox News visited the restaurant to sample a few favorites, catch up with the owner and explore the hidden gems decorating the space. Watch the video above for a behind-the-scenes look at our visit! What to expect and order at Maryville restaurant The Possum The Possum's menu features a range of unique appetizers, including Brussels sprouts with ham jam, bologna burnt ends and fried saltines with
