“It All Started In A Rambling Kitchen” was the breaking story in the Johnson City Press Chronicle in 1938 from the original Peerless in downtown Johnson City. Going on 84 years of serving the finest beef in East Tennessee, we have mastered our craft from generation to generation. We now celebrate by opening BURG’r & BARREL in this beautiful hometown historical train depot. We offer a unique dining scene with a fun & relaxing environment accompanied by the newly designed outdoor area, GATHER JC Depot which will host an innovative beer garden & outdoor bar + an array of different games & activities for a true Johnson City hospitality experience. We have extensive local craft beers, specialty cocktails, assortments of wine, & wide array of bourbon and whiskey for enjoyment.
Our Chef’s buy local & regional food when possible to support our menu, our menu items only use premium hand selected loins of proteins always hormone free, and are in-house butchered daily where we will secretly & uniquely blend and cook your burg’r to perfection. There is no doubt, these specialty burgers, and smoked meats reign supreme in every bite! Our family & culinary experts are fussy about every item on our hand crafted menu.
I personally welcome you & hope you enjoy our now 4th generation, Kalogeros Family Culinary Hospitality experience.
