Restaurants in Van Buren

“Food was tasty, tender, satisfying and yummy. Service was very good, always on spot and friendly. Pork chops, shrimp, pork in noodles, was all good. I will go again. Love ya vicki and John.”

“Always looking for a good burger and there are a lot of places in the area to choose from. We finally made it here to The Burger Forge and the only problem I had with it is that I have wasted too much time not coming here before. Fantastic burgers. My wife got the Classic burger and fries and I got the Dragon Breath burger and had Onion Rings. The burgers were messy perfection, everything you want from a burger joint. The Dragons Breath burger was fire! Hot enough to take notice but not so much you don’t taste the rest of your food. The buns were soft and loaded with all the goodies. The burgers were a classic smash burger and very tasty. The fries were fresh cut and there were a lot of them you don’t go away hungry. The onion rings were some of the best I have ever had. What I said as we were leaving is that the food tasted like they cared about making good food and that’s what they did. Don’t loose that passion, we will definitely be back.”

“We ate here for the 1st time today and it’s our favorite bbq place!”

“Have been coming here for years. It’s never been bad, food and service is always AMAZING!! They always remember to put the green sauce in the bag and if I forget they ask if I want rice with my order. I always do 🤣 Try the super carne asada burrito! Almost the size of a newborn baby, lol.”

“Amazing service! Great food! Got the food so quick ( under 4 minutes), food was absolutely amazing! We will be back ❤️”

“Awesome place! Loved the food”

“clean and great food and service”

“Great food!! The meat was tender and the sauce was delicious!”

“I have found my Geaux To N'Awlins-style food in Arkansas!!! Excellent! Very tasty, well seasoned, and quantity and quality for the money. The Catfish dinner is the bomb with enough for leftovers. Fried pickles were outstanding. Saving my order of Gumbo for tomorrow, but I anticipate it's deliciousness already. And Southern-style bread pudding!!! Lawd!!! Y'all need to check this establishment out! You won't be disappointed! God bless Y'all!!! Beatrice”

“Amazing, friendly service, and most of all the BEST food in this region! Also you haven’t had pie until you’ve had miss Patts Pie!!!”

“We've been to Saku Saku many times and it's always been superb! Thanks!”

“I used to live about 30 miles from Van Buren and I found this bakery. I immediately fell in love with it. It has that old time bakery feel. Every time i am anywhere close we always have to stop andnget a small cake and drop cookies. Their donuts are super good and unique too. Its my favorite bakery. It is 2 hours from my home now and sometimes even ask to drive to it for my birthday cake. There is just something special about it. The prices are really fair too.”

“I love love love the drink I had today! It was the pink energizer (forgot the label name) but it was absolutely delicious, it kinda tastes like a pink starburst! Definitely recommend and will definitely be going for more!”

“I had a Carmel iced coffee at our PTA fundraiser and it was so good. This morning I had time to go through the drive through and I ordered a hot Apple Pie Chai. Oh my goodnes, this drink is on point.”

“Such a hidden gem! We’ve been wanting to try the viral fruit pastries for a while, and I’m so glad we finally did. While traveling the country, we’re always on the lookout for new coffee spots, sweet treats, and unique experiences—and this place definitely delivered.

The fruit pastries were amazing—fresh, flavorful, and totally lived up to the hype. We were only in the area for two days, so finding this spot felt like a win.

If you’re nearby and want something a little different and delicious, don’t skip this place!”

“Great collection of local artisan items. large selection from gifts to grocery shopping.”

“Best Chicken fried steak around. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Highly recommend .”

“Absolutely loved this place, I think people sleep on Braum's because it seems more like a summer place because of the ice cream but people forget that they make food as well! I've tried both the tenders and the burgers and they're both a 5 out of 5 for me, the burgers are so flavorful and big and the tenders go so well with their sauces. For being the place it is, I didn't expect it to be open so late, but it's a good place to go with friends either outside or inside, whether you're eating in or taking out! For those that are new to the place they also have an inside neighborhood market! (I highly recommend getting the pistachio chocolate chip with almonds).”

“I had a huge Facebook post looking for the biggest best chicken fried steak in the area, everyone recommended the vault. they have a huge one for a great price. Dairy dips is much smaller, but it taste excellent compared. I'd recommend the chicken fried steak dinner to anyone over the vaults. maybe next time I'll ask for a double order of the chicken fried steak 😂”

“Food is always hot and fresh. Best quesadillas and fajitas!!!!
Also, very helpful and honest when you leave your wallet. Thanks for an awesome experience.”

“They are friendly and the food is wonderful.”

“Mama Bs Mac And Cheese Is Soo Amazing Had Her Mac And Cheese Today With Her Pork Sandwich It Was The Bomb So Delicious Will Be Coming Back For More Go Try It Out ❤️”

“A really yummy dinner thanks to this location. Unfortunately, I had to travel from Fort Smith to this Papa’s John because the Fort Smith’s location isn’t up to par.”

“We’re suckers for a Mocha Madness with white chocolate. Decaf for this dude! ✌🏻🥰”

“The Lee's Summit, MO location has some of the greatest employees who are nothing less than exceptional! Great coffee at a great value. LOVE 7 Brew!!!!”

“Have always enjoyed their food until they started limiting the amount of salsa that you can have with your meal. Given 2 different excuses by 2 different servers….tomato shortage & cost to make it. We’ll take our business to El Lorito”

“Van Buren Wendy's is awesome. They take pride in making food right! A simple sandwich can make someone's day and they get that ♥️”

“My girls are 7 and 9 they love going and getting mystery drinks lol. The staff is always so nice and welcoming! It is pricey but a good treat on occasion. My girls had to have 2 drinks and cake pops that’s why it was so expensive wnd we got breakfast! They love starbucks! Employees are so nice they just have great management ❤️”

“ordered a 32 piece and were not disappointed! got Nashville hot and santa fe. Nashville wasn't very hot but still tasty. wings were great size and cooked perfectly. so juicy. fries also good. just needed a tad more seasoning. 8 out of 10 will order again!”

“The gang Chepe, Jefferson, Miguel, Efrin, and Jose Jr are amazing! The chip ladies are the best in the business. The bar is small but these guys will take great care of you!”

“The food is always served hot and fresh.
The staff has treated us like family since day one!
The restaurant itself is always pristine, even the restrooms.”

“Thank you for supporting our fundraiser!”

“I enjoyed this experience! The lady was nice who brought my food out. Amanda was nice and patient with me taking my order. Super grateful for patient crew members. I know people have bad days and there are bad experiences at fast food places. We all need patience and compassion for each other. The customers and the crews.”

“Pizza is always great , Barbra is the best , but let's talk about the air conditioning. Look3d at your units , seems like they are for a house . Need to put some money into new and stronger units . And plz don't go with its the weather, I know it's hot but other places are able to keep it cool”

“Just happen be passing through and this was one of the closest fast food restaurants around at the moment. Got to say wasn't disappointed, had the smasher burger excellent! Tater tots, and a cherry lemonade. Everything was hot fresh! I was impressed.”
