We had a blast at The Purple Cow!!!

Our server was amazing, he handled our large group with ease and made ordering a breeze!

We had several great items. Blue cheese burger, Steak burger, Tuna melt, Hot Chocolate Lava Cake, coffee shake, & peanut butter chocolate shake.

The restaurant had plenty of seating and was kind of like an old fashioned diner.

I hadn't been to a Purple Cow in years. I've been missing out. The restaurant was very clean and laid out well. Our server was great. He got us our dinner quickly, checked on us, and had a great personality. We live by Conway which has one. I'll have to remember that and stop in more often. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious.

We had some family passing through Arkansas, so we took the opportunity to meet up with them as they were coming through. There were 18 of us total. From the moment we got there we were welcomed, and the staff did not seem to be phased by our large group.
Aly was our waitress and she did an incredible job. She was kind patient and accurate. None of those things are easy to do with 10 kids and 8 adults. Thank you Aly and the crew at The Purple Cow. You made our family...
