This town will soon be the smallest city with its own Buc-eeâs

The “world’s cleanest bathrooms” are coming to Kentucky.

Texas-based Buc-ee’s is starting construction June 5 on its second Kentucky location, in Smiths Grove along Interstate 65 about halfway between Nashville and Louisville. With a population around 700, Smiths Grove will be the smallest city with a Buc-ee’s in the country.

The new travel center will come with 120 gas pumps and a 53,000-square-foot store. It will feature traditional fan-favorite Buc-ee’s offerings, including kolaches, fudge, barbecue, pastries, jerky and Beaver Nuggets.

“We are excited to be in Western Kentucky along a beautiful stretch of I-65 between Nashville and Louisville,” said Stan Beard of Buc-ee’s in a release. “Smiths Grove will be the smallest town with a Buc-ee’s. It has a big heart just like we do, so we’ll get along just fine!”

Buc-ee’s first opened in Texas in 1982 and has since expanded to 45 locations across Texas and the South. Buc-ee’s has travel centers in Tennessee, Florida, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and Kentucky. The chain also plans to build stores in Colorado and Missouri.
