11 Hole-In-The-Wall Restaurants In Johnson City, Tennessee That Locals Would Rather Keep Secret

One of the best Indian restaurants on this list sits inside a building that used to be a Long John Silver’s. I love that kind of plot twist. Another spot bakes pizza in a hand-built brick oven that weighs about 10 tons. A downtown diner stays open until 4 AM on weekends, which feels like a public service.

Third Annual Boo Bash brings thousands to downtown

NEWPORT — The third annual downtown Boo Bash was a success last Tuesday evening, and as many as 8,000 people were believed to have been in attendance. According to Cocke County Sheriff C.J. Ball, there were 45 or 46 booths on the courthouse side, and that does not include some booths that other businesses had set up in front of their shops. “We are very pleased with the turnout. Everyone was very happy, and we have gotten lots of great comments,” he said. Ball said he wanted to start Boo Bash when he was first elected sheriff in 2022, but they didn’t get the annual event underway until 2024. “It has grown every year. We have more and more people and more businesses and organizations participating,” he said. The event is not scheduled for Halloween night because he said he does not want it to compete with other activities and events scheduled throughout the community. He explained that they try to count the children in attendance and then add in adults who accompany each child. “Mark your calendars for next year as the date is set, Tuesday, Oct. 26, 2027, starting at 5 p.m.,” Ball said. “We would like to
