This restaurant and its owners, Cheryl and Steve, are simply amazing! The food is delicious - Cheryl makes everything from scratch. The soups, were the best I’ve ever had - Hungarian Mushroom and Lobster Bisque. The pimiento cheese was delicious! Cheryl brought out a sample of her famous chicken salad, and it was as other reviewers described - the best! Too full for a complete desert, Cheryl graciously brought out a sample of her limoncello cake - so, so good! If the food weren’t wonderful enough..... The owners, Cheryl and Steve, treated us like old friends! I’ve never been treated with such friendliness and kindness at a restaurant. It was a new and welcomed experience. Beautiful and delicious restaurant/store and the kindest owners you’ll ever meet. Go, you will be delighted! I can’t wait to visit again!!

Best chicken salad you will ever have, guaranteed. You hear people say that about so many things, but I promise you will not regret eating here. But you have to try the chicken salad. It's incredible!!

Don’t look up another place to eat in the area. You have to stop in here for food. I can’t say much better than what everyone else has said in the other reviews. Probably the best food I have had while in TN. Everything was homemade and the taste was out of this world. You really need to come in here. We didn’t buy anything in the store, but so many things to look at. Our family of 4 was so lucky to have stumbled upon this place. I will remember this food for a long time.

We love Cheryl's! The lunch menu is simple but everything on it is great! The specials are always great too! Sometimes, there's live music. The gift shop is beautiful and we can always find something for guests that come visit us in Smithville. All around, would recommend.

So, first time in here was 2 weeks ago and I had already ate but they insisted on feeding me anyways. I came in today for lunch, and had the French onion soup which I'm a connoisseur of, and hers is better than high end French restaurants! I also had the shepherds pie which was phenomenal! Cheryl and her girls are the nicest people your likely to find anywhere!

Lovely place to eat and shop. Very spacious for a luncheon. The owner lost her son Beau 6 years day after Christmas. The family nik named Beau bees, to which the name of the business. It became her way of ministry. Please ask her the story. It keeps her son alive in a mother's heart when we speak of our children. If service is not as quick as you like, please have patience. We live in a day where finding good workers is let alone workers at all to help. She and the employees are wonderful. Stop, relax , have patience, and enjoy the tranquility of being with loved ones in this restaurant shop. Enjoy what's in front of you with good conversation and love.

We loved the food and the staff was amazing. We came down to support Whistlin Diesel and it was so hot and the staff was so kind to come bring us all bottled water. We ended up eating at the restaurant and the food was great, the store had amazing hand made crafts, the story behind the bees was touching. Overall really enjoyed our time there and will be back next time we’re in the area.
