A must visit for every person visiting East Texas.
This is such an amazing little museum which does an excellent job of telling the story of a very tragic event in history. The cafe attached to it serves great food! Well worth a visit!
Great place to get food. Staff very helpful and meal was very filling.
What a great tribute!! So well done
Incredible experience and the staff is so helpful and knowledgeable. All Texas residents and students need to be aware of the enormity of what took place and its effect.
The museum was a great experience. The tour guide knew a lot and was able to answer a lot of questions. Try the Black Cow at the soda fountain!
Wonderful place to visit alot of History.
Love the 3.75 burgers on Friday!!
I could spend hours just looking at everything and reading about every item
We took our Senior Group from Oakland Heights Baptist Church in Longview today. We enjoyed a delicious lunch. The prices are very reasonable. 25 of us enjoyed the tour of the museum led by a very knowledgeable docent. It was a great trip. Everyone should see this museum.
I don't get this way too often. But it is a great place to visit.. this was my second time to eat here... First of all. ALL the food is GREAT. The Staff is Top Notch , friendly and super nice. I especially like the Old Timey Fountain with the OLD WAY of mixing the COKE drink.
We were on our way to the oil museum in Kilgore, but they were closed due to a power outage. They told us about the New London museum, so we went over there. What an awesome little museum. All the volunteers were very friendly and they could tell is all about the tragic disaster in 1937. It was very informative. We live in Tyler, but never knew what exactly happened on that dreadful day. We also had some icecream, and the best fountain drinks we ever had. You can not get cheaper fountain drinks than here, and they were delicious. Absolutely worth dropping by and get yourself educated and have some great drinks.
Wonderful museum honoring the tragic deaths of the New London school explosion of 1937. Information is well-researched and educational. Volunteers running the museum were kind. The old fashioned soda was great too! We want to go back on a weekday and try the café.
Beautifully put together . Café was very good . The ladies that run both side where amazing
Very nice! Enjoyed looking back in time!!
Go back in time and get your shakes, ice creams and remember those who lost their lives on that tragic day in history.
I learned a lot about this tragic part of Texas history at the museum.
Tour guide was awesome. History of the incident was very well put together. Enjoyed going through museum.
Great place!
Everyone should stop here and learn while therr are still wonderful people willing to share their experiences. Had a tour guide that really explained the history, significance, and sorrow the explosion caused and how it helped shape the country when it comes to natural gas.
