O'Brien's Southern Diner | Tennessee Crossroads | Episode 3320.1

O'Brien's Southern Diner just outside Ashland City, TN. has much of that 'at home' feeling is because of owner Candice O'Brien Beasley, who makes certain every plate that leaves her kitchen passes her personal 'perfection' test.

You can’t go anywhere in Tennessee without running into a celebrity (Hickok45)😁

[@PLA5207]

My my, Hickok45, Mr. Greg is sittin' right there. Alright!!!

[@gregknight293]

.....Every segment on the Tennessee Crossroads series just makes me feel right at home when I walk in the door. All the food looks so delicious and all the staff/patrons are the very salt and backbone of America. Candice and family are so very kind and generous to feed the community for Christmas. I would love to make it back to Tennessee at least one more time to visit as many of these crossroad cafes and people as I can....Very good show...Thank you!!

[@stevethecountrycook1227]

I was waiting for the Momma to come out, Then I realized that little gal is the momma! You have taken good care of yourself to be your age! And I can't tell your age! It is a blessing to have your kids working with you, and they like the work! To the food, It looks wonderful! If I am ever in the area, I will be stoppin by!

[@sandranelson7124]

( This is Tom, not Sandra.) I pray GOD blesses this lady for all that she does for the free Christmas meals she prepares for the people in her area. She is a real Christian lady and l hope she is continually blessed by GOD for her unselfish acts during that season, as well as other times of the year. GOD, please bless this restaurant and its owner. She is doing your work!!!

[@glennhoddle10]

You need to do a show with Hillary Klug of Nashville TN

[@tightywhitey9779]

Those prices though…. Surely they aren’t like that anymore?

[@candicebeasley544]

What about the prices ? Do you feel they are to low or to high?

[@tightywhitey9779]

@@candicebeasley544the prices are low. I can’t even go to a fast food joint nowadays without forking over at least $10-$15

[@candicebeasley544]

@@tightywhitey9779thank you for thinking that. We have always tried to be more than fair. With rising food costs it’s so hard to make a profit anymore .
