The bacon jam burger is one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! Fried chicken sandwich, fries, local beer- all great as well. Definitely happy with this stop between Hot Springs and Fayetteville!

Must have been a bad day, food was bland, fries well never thought you could mess up potatoes but now I know you can. Burger was well like hard paste. Staff was friendly. First time here, I can't recommend. Hope it was just a bad day for them. Took over 40 mins to get order.

What a great find. The vibe is super cool. The service by Mary was excellent from the moment we walked in. Our friend ordered a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and loved it. My husband and I have to be gluten & dairy free but were jonesn’ for a burger so I brought our GF buns and vegan cheese. We both ordered the bacon jam burger and fries. We told Mary about our allergy and she noted it on our ticket. Then the cook, Jeff, came to our table to chat with us about our allergy. It was so awesome that he took the care and time to go over our order and make sure we’d be safe. The food was DELISH!!!! We will definitely be back.
Great place for lunch or dinner. Great food & service.

Came in for a quick lunch bite before heading up 21 for a hike. Had the quesadilla and Philly cheesesteak both with Cajun fries. The fries were perfection. And the rest of the food was also amazing. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

I recently moved to the area and just happened to wonder in one day for lunch... Only to discover a true hidden gem! This place is so cool and has such great ambiance the staff was very friendly and welcoming. This will be my new favorite place! They have music on Friday and Saturday nights and karaoke on Thursday nights! This place will definitely give you those hometown vibes ?

Good burger. I liked the relaxed atmosphere on the patio. Great service.
If ya'll have not been to the Wrecked Canoe - you need to stop thinking about dinner and tell everyone you know to meet you here. The food is wonderful, the atmosphere is great, and the staff is even better.Shannon is almost a celebrity in how friendly she is. Meet her once, and you will know her for life. Having a bad day? Hit her up for breakfast and she will make everything seem a little better.Cassidy is a HARD worker. Last night with the ice and snow she ended up being the only waitress on a packed Karaoke night - but she still did her job with a smile and I watched her running around keeping drinks filled and making sure everyone had what they wanted and needed. Ya'll. Remember to tip your service workers! They never ask for it - but they deserve it!Hailey manages the joint - and she does so like its her home. When you are there, she makes sure that you are having a great time and that you want to return.Obviously there are a ton of other people servicing you, from kitchen staff to wait staff to the staff in the convenience store... There is a reason this is my families go-to spot for breakfast, lunch, dinner... AND WEEKLY KARAOKE...The food is GREAT and a great value! They have rotating daily specials and plate lunches that include a full meal and drink and are only $10. This is a sit down full service restaurant - and the food is cheaper than any you can get through a drive through.The have Karaoke every Thursday night, ran by Alex and Shayna who run Eastside SoundWorks & Events (which is another local business you NEED to reach out to if you are throwing a wedding, party, or event).We are very lucky to have these local businesses in Clarksville. Shop local, ya'll! The Wrecked Canoes owner lives in Clarksville. You will see him in the place helping make sure everything is running smoothly and just hanging out with customers. His kids work here after school. This is a local business! Support your neighbors!If you can't tell... I go here often. It's a fantastic place. Try it. You will go back.Vegetarian options: My husband is a vegetarian. Anything on the menu, they will make him and omit the meat and/or sub it with some extra veggies. The kitchen crew is awesome and accommodating.Dietary restrictions: Tell your waitress! She will make sure it's put in correctly. Like everywhere, always check before you eat something - but I've never had something be made incorrectly.Parking: There is plenty of parking unless there is an event. The patio hosts weekly events, and it can get crowded. I've never had an issue finding a place to park - but sometimes the "official" spots can get filled and you will just park along the side of the lot. Your car is safe and still visible from the building, it's just not in an "officially marked" parking spot.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. There is handicap parking, and there is a ramp up to the walkway. Everything else is flat and level. The patio is enclosed and covered, however it is also outside and on gravel. The gravel is well maintained, and my grandmother is able to easily traverse it with her walker - but just know that it is there. She has a mobility scooter and I have zero concern that if she were to bring it that she could navigate the patio, and I'm sure a wheelchair user would have no issue. If you find yourself to be unsure - please don't hesitate to ask! If you want it, the staff will jump up to help you, and so will the regulars!!!

Thanks again for the great food and the great service.
