The Bend NWA

Such a fun place to hang out! My flatbread pizza was delicious and the service was incredibly friendly!

Fries were unexpectedly delicious!

Nice place to end a walk

Great place. Perfect for the warm season. Has become a family destination

Such a great place to bring the family. Indoor/outdoor seating. Great local beer selection. Food is top tier. I recommend the white chicken flat bread. Staff is super friendly.

Fantastic experience, exactly what we were looking for!

It seems to be a fairly popular place. There is basically easy access to the Bend, in Bela Vista.

I love this place! Easygoing and friendly vibe,

As a working mom whose child frequents the Pedal Kids backyard, the Bend has been an absolute lifesaver. A welcoming spot for the extra afternoon “office hours” and an inclusive location no matter the time of day. Friendly staff, perfect location. It’s a must visit when we have friends in town. I’m so sad it’s going into hibernation and cannot wait for the spring when it reopens! It’s literally my favorite establishment in NWA!

My group of friends rolled in after riding and granted, we did arrive when it had just gotten busy. It was a decent wait for the food, but because it had just gotten busy multiple orders could have been ahead of us and there was only one new guy running the kitchen so I can get the wait. I was just disappointed by the portion size. It was $17 for a medium sized chicken sandwich including the +2$ upcharge for the potato wedges which was a bit of a stingy portion regarding the upcharge. I wouldn't be too disappointed if the wedges were included for $15 with the sandwich. Cool place to stop in for a beer, but wouldn't recommend the entrees for the price. The staff tried to fix any issues we had quickly, so good service!

Came for lunch on a Saturday. Got the burger and Dagwood. Both were solid. But we paid $2 extra to get potato wedges. We were given the most stingy scraps of potatoes I have even received at a restaurant (photo). Not worth the price. Solid spot to grab a beer, but I’d stay away if you want a meal.

Be sure to be thirsty because the food takes a long time. Currently 5 tables and we have been waiting for 45 minutes for a flatbread.
Great location and beer selection. I just wish the food didn’t take forever. Hopefully we will get food soon. Beverage has ran dry.

*asked guy at window and he said maybe another 10 minutes because they are BUSY!! 5 TABLES! Busy???Definitely won’t suggest coming here.

Update: NEVER GOT FOOD after 50 minutes. Too bad, it is a great location.
Did refund food.

This place is really cool. Great place to bring the kids on a chill evening when you just want to be outside. Ordered some brisket nachos which were absolutely delicious and ate them while my two year old happily played with all the lawn games. You order your food and drinks upstairs and then get a number for pickup from the food truck window on the lawn. We will definitely be returning!

Came to this place on a whim, I didn’t even realize it was here! Love the seating/atmosphere and the delicious food. The Ozarker Dagwood is very very good. Would definitely recommend
