“Cheddar’s offers a familiar, casual dining experience with a wide-ranging menu and a comfortable atmosphere. The space is well-kept and family-friendly, with a layout that accommodates both small groups and larger parties. Service during our visit was polite and steady—not rushed, but not particularly fast either.

The food was about what you’d expect from a national chain: hearty portions and approachable flavors. I tried one of the chicken-based entrées, which was well-cooked and satisfying, though nothing especially memorable. The sides were consistent and fresh, and the pricing felt reasonable for the portion sizes. If you’re looking for a reliable meal in a relaxed setting, it gets the job done.

That said, this isn’t necessarily a spot you go to for standout dishes or a unique culinary experience. It’s dependable comfort food, ideal for casual lunches or group dinners when you want something familiar and filling. Not much to critique, but not much that stood out either.“

“Located on old Ft Chaffee with all of its history, veteran-owned and frequented.
Nicky (Nikki?) was excellent bartender, happy to provide insight and samples, plus very friendly.
Enjoyed their DIPA and the Sgt. Pepper jalapeño English ale was zesty but maybe not for all palates.
Chicken tacos just ok, but didn’t really go to eat.
Fun friendly spot. Even allow RV parking for folks passing thru.

“Best snow cones we’ve had in the area. We ordered a stuffed snow cone (scoop of ice cream inside) & a snow cone that comes with a jello filled syringe (I think it’s called “the cure”). In our opinion, this location is much better than the store location (on Old Greenwood Road, I think). The employees at this location were super friendly, efficient, & did a fantastic job.“
