    Lots of interesting things! Great woodwork art in the back and an interesting variety of items off to the left, down the hall when you enter.

    This is one cool place and it's as authentic as the proprietor Al Wilson - I spent some time here exploring the different areas that are filled with the old, creative and things rescued from the past - there's just somethings that can't be reproduced or replicated and the owner understands this as much as anyone I've met. After exploring the property my thoughts kept going back to one particular item to the point I found myself standing in front of Al for further discussion knowing it would be a tough negotiation but I had to do it - I have lots of wall space in my RV Garage and I have some very old advertisement displayed which I have been collecting since the 1980's so naturally the old original 1933 Coca-Cola porcelain sign displayed on the front of the building caught my eye, it's not perfect but that's part of the attraction - it's obvious Al has a strong connection to this sign but then again everything has a price as does this piece. I know the value I knew the price would be Al's "I don't want to sell it price" but he was surprisingly open minded and put a price on it which had me going back out to take another look at it. Al fully understands the condition of the piece and even pointed out it's flaw before giving me a number and that is everything a collector hopes for when dealing with the owner. Well at the end of the day I had to walk away since I felt we were too far apart on the price. Those of you who love old advertisement can still enjoy it when stopping in and maybe you can get to a number that is acceptable to everyone. I actually didn't counter Al's offer since it wasn't ridiculous just more that I was willing to pay although I still have an interest in it. I know I spent a considerable amount of time here and I knowthere are things I missed and I'm sure the inventory here changes frequently I believe the owner has an eye for the old and unusual and I can only imagine that it only gets better as time goes by. One of the things I loved about this place is that most of the items are displayed in the condition they are received, not a lot of polished or refurbished pieces here the philosophy seems to be it is what it is and I like that...

    We were staying in Gatlinburg and decided we wanted to take a picnic lunch into our adventures in…read morethe Great Smoky Mountain National Park one of the days we were there. I saw that there was a Publix in Pigeon Forge and knew that's where we'd need to go to get our picnic supplies! Because we had flown in (and didn't have picnic basket on our pack list), I knew that we needed to get a small cooler to keep our drinks and sandwiches cool on the warm spring day. Fortunately, Publix had a nice variety of small lunch box size coolers and we found one for a reasonable price that was perfect for what we needed and would collapse down for easy packing to bring it home. We then made our way to the deli and got fresh, deli made sandwiches made with boar's head meats and cheeses. They're fully customizable and we very much enjoyed them! We were also able to grab some fruit, pretzel crisps, boar's head hummus, and bottled beverages to round out our picnic. Everything was great, prices were reasonable, and we enjoyed a beautiful picnic in this beautiful area. One note would be that the deli does get busy. We were there in the ease of spring (ie: no big National Park crowds) and we still had to wait in a bit of a line for our deli sandwiches. So, just something to factor into scheduling. That said, we didn't mind a bit and the sandwiches were worth the wait. Get to it!

    I was in the area to visit Dollywood and was staying nearby, so I stopped in here to pick up some…read moresnacks and water for the weekend. It was located at the intersection of Great Smoky Mountains Pkwy and Wears Valley Rd. The store was clean, well organized, and well maintained. I was able to easily find what I needed. Prices weren't the best, but there were some deals here and there. I bought 2 bags of Boulder Canyon chips for $8 and a gallon of Publix drinking water for $1.43. It was quicker and very convenient for me to pay for my items while using one of the self checkout kiosks and be on my way.

    Being here makes me incredibly sad that I don't have one anywhere near me…read more Let's talk about the hot food first ! We had the best brisket sandwich. The sauce is a little sweet, I recommend the sliced brisket over the chopped brisket any day. I would recommend to just skip The three meat sandwich, all you could taste is a sausage- and this may be a hot take... But I don't love the sausage. As for the chicken tenders, wait until it's hot fresh and just put out and it's a life-changing experience. The Buc-ee's sauce is the only way to go. You can get barbecue sauce or honey mustard at any other place. The fries are definitely better than the homemade chips. I did not like those chips, I don't know if I just didn't have them hot and fresh, but I would say skip them. We got some banana pudding to go. Also, would not recommend. It's vanilla pudding with some bananas and wafers. I like my banana pudding to be banana pudding not vanilla pudding with bananas, etc.. We grabbed some essential road trip, snacks, including Buc-ee's nuggets, two different kinds of beef, jerky, peanuts, pickle, flavored potato sticks, and some of their signature mince, both the cotton candy and the traditional. We also got some of their signature cola. The diet cola was mid, the regular was better. and in addition to the snacks and food, we also picked up a hat and a T-shirt for both of us. The staff were amazing. This place is like Grand Central Station, it gets very crowded very fast. Speaking of fast, the cashiers and folks working at the meat carving station were legendarily fast.. The whole experience is great ftom the moment you park in the clean parking lot until the moment you checkout! and if you need to use their bathrooms those are also pristine with a great light system that tells you exactly which stall is open. This place is a well oiled machine designed to be a road tripper's paradise

    This was my second Buc-ee's on my way from Cincinnati to Pigeon Forge, TN. This Buc-ee's is huge!!…read moreI recommend a stop even if you just stopped in the smaller Richmond store!! Just be sure to save some room in your belly for some amazing brisket! You can fill up the tank and be ready to blaze out of Pigeon Forge after singing a duet with Dolly! Fun times and friendly people here in TN!!
