    So glad to see this place alive with people again! We were there when it was shut down from the virus. We will have to go back now that they are open.

    This encourages me to buy Bush beans exclusively.i do buy them at times
    but after seeing this I need to be more committed to that!! A great product American made
    I am impressed with the VIP treatment you guys received!!

    I want to thank you for this video. If I didn’t watch this review, I wouldn’t have even known that the museum existed. We just got back from a week in the Smokies. Next to the natural beauty/exploration of the National Park, this was the highlight of our trip. Not only was the museum informative but the gift store had so much more than bean merch, and it was reasonably priced! The cafe…well, those were the best chicken tenders we ever had! Thank you Dawn! In fact, out of all the places we ate last week, the Bush’s cafe was our favorite! (Elvira’s cafe came in second, pottery house came in third and worst was the Smokey mountain brewery) The welcoming, museum, store and cafe staff were the friendliest staff I have encountered in a long time. All of them talked about the wonderful family that they worked for. Our waitress has never been in the house across the street. She said that they do not give notice when it’s opening because they could not support the crowds, so you have to keep checking. If you two have an invite, you should consider yourselves blessed because long time staff don’t even get invited. I look forward to your Christmas review of the home! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this review! You never know how a review may impact someone’s trip and I can tell you that your review impacted our trip in a very positive way! Every time I open a can of bush’s beans, I will remember our trip and exactly how and where they were made! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    The Bush museum is great. Never been there before. The history of the family making the cans and packing the beans in the cans is interesting. Definitely, hard work. The restaurant where the delicious food is prepared looked yummy, especially the chicken tenders. Pies were where they put beans in them looked scrumptious! Would be a nice place to visit in Chesterfield,. Tennessee.

We got our picture taken with Duke and I got a Duke Tshirt. Chris would love it. The food there is really really good. You chicken looked so good. The meatloaf loved wonderful and the pie looked awesome. Wow whatca mealbyou had with the bean lasagna as well. How very neat that you could go into the Bush family home. This makes me wants to go there again .

    When we came up with my dad last month, we got to take a private tour with the Bushes family, we couldn't film because it wasn't open to the public yet. It was so cool, the family is so nice, treated us like one of the family, I have pictures, I did put a video up of the pictures. We love Bushes Baked Beans, I really love the place mats with the blue truck on it. Love your video.

Who would have known that they made Bush’s baked beans in Tn. we went here a few years ago for the first time and it was soooo interesting. We have never eaten in the cafe, but I think next time we will. The food looks delicious. Thanks for sharing. Hubby and I look every day to see if you have put out a new video.

    HEY! You forgot to mention that the beans also come from Canada! No doubt they are the best to make Bush beans. LOL 😂
    As a sidenote I do get Bush baked beans do use as a base for my own style of baked beans. Yes, I use canned beans. But I really fix them up good! I add chopped onions, I add a pound of bacon, I add molasses, ketchup and/or barbecue sauce, yellow mustard and brown sugar for a little sweetener. My baked beans are quite frankly the best I’ve ever tasted anywhere bar none. The actual quantity of the ingredients are a family secret but they are right some good! On occasion I will also add pineapple tidbits pieces to my baked beans when I’m making my Hawaiian barbecued baked beapns!
