Restaurants near West Fork

“Great service! Great portions. Really really great food! How to find it: you'll park in the lot next to the pool and walk past the pool towards the building/pavilion. The door is a solid wood door inside of the "back" of the pavilion area, there is a open window/door that it seems you can order and sit in the pavilion, we went inside the indoor seating area.
Indoor seating is a rustic look (wood tables, wood chairs, wood walls, and large wall filled stone fireplace). I believe it was 9 tables of 4 per table.
We ate here on a Sunday morning for breakfast/brunch. Only one family (of 8) was sitting inside and no-one outside sitting. So, we didn't expect much of a wait. It's a seat yourself place and they'll come out to you. Unfortunately, like many food places, they are understaffed and there was only 1 young lady working who was taking food orders AND cooking everything. We waited about 20 minutes before she came out and even saw us (she was cooking the food for the family of 8!). We felt pretty bad for her, and she was apologetic and very professional. We didn't mind, but we were pretty hungry, so it could have been a better experience, but this is NOT her fault, she deserves a TON of credit for what she was doing.
Orders and how it went:
I ordered Lee Creek Benny (look it up, it's interesting) and a coffee. She made the coffee fresh just for us, it was hot and great. The Benny was freaking AMAZING! I was shocked as to how good the food was, tbh - I mean, it's a campground, and she should be cooking for a classy restaurant! The presentation was fantastic as well, super surprised.
Wife ordered biscuits and gravy, with cocoa gravy, and a sweet tea (only because they don't have a good selection of coffee creamers). She said the sweet tea was homemade and very good! Her order came out wrong (was sausage gravy, not coca gravy), but she felt bad and didn't say anything. 5 minutes later, the gal came back out having herself realized the mistake and she greatly apologized - again, super professional! She didn't charge us for that. Wife didn't mind, she said it was delicious! It was also a LOT of food for her.
Kids shared the Breakfast Platter with pancakes, eggs, bacon and sausage. She brought it out perfectly split onto two plates! So nice, so they didn't have to split it up and argue, lol. They both got 2 pieces of bacon, 1 sausage patty, 2 pancakes, some scrambled eggs, and a slice of watermelon. It was so much, neither finished it... so I helped. HA! It was delicious as well.
My son also ordered a chocolate milk. It was kind of fancy and he loved it. She really really went above and beyond. She deserves a raise and huge tip! BTW: they don't allow tips if you use a card, so you will want to bring cash to drop on the table because she definitely deserved it (we left a tip, even though the receipt hints NOT to do it).
Again, this is a gem hidden in a nature park. Go find it, even if you're just driving around the park or going for a walk. Enjoy!!

Parking: Parking is next to the pool, so you have a short walk down the sidewalk to the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly. Food was great and filling for them. Fun chocolate milk :)”

“just stopped on by with my cuz and it was the best burger I have had it a long time”

“I have been going here for years. They have the best salsa and queso around. Even compared to all the Mexican restaurants in Fayetteville. The food is great. Only reason I gave it 4 stars are the prices. But, I understand they have to run a business and it's not cheap. I would recommend this place to everyone I know. Fantastic food and a great atmosphere!!

Kid-friendliness: A wonderful community-centric atmosphere.

Wheelchair accessibility: 2 wheelchair ramps from parking lot.”

“Really scrumptious banh mi. Love the tofu and vegan pate. The fried egg banh mi is also delicious. Tasty vermicelli noodles as well. The spring rolls are a bit chewy from all the noodles but I do love noodles. All wrapped up in a great atmosphere and service and super affordable prices.”

“Our first time in and we will definitely be back sorry it took me so long to try this sweet little shop. The ice was flavorful and the “bubblewrap” thats like a warm waffle wrapped around your icecream was soft and DELICIOUS! But my biggest compliment for this place was the friendly staff. The young lady working answered all our questions and was warm and friendly and actually appeared to enjoy her job and even though it wasnt busy, she was diligently busy working the whole time we were there. So kudos to her for a great work ethic. I asked her name on tge way out and it was Tatum.”

“From the second we entered the restaurant, we had exemplary, excellent, friendly and professional service. The food was extraordinary, the atmosphere sophisticated and romantic. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an excellent meal, particularly for a date night.

Dietary restrictions: We had dairy free options, the table next to us had vegetarian options.”

“I forgot to post my review a few months ago. This place is fantabulous! I was feeling ill and wanted something fresh/healthy since I couldn’t stomach anything. I met one of the owners who was a friendly, knowledgeable guy. He let me sample everything before I made my purchase. I’ve been back since then and plan to go back soon. 10/10!”

“I usually order take out but decided to dine in for lunch a couple days ago. It’s a cute little place. The people there are very sweet. The food is great as always. I tried the Garlic Shrimp for the first time and it’s delicious.”

“My fiancé & I moved to NWA in January (2024), and we’ve been having trouble finding a pizza spot that we love. Well, we found it today! A friend recommended this spot, and we love it. The food was excellent. We ordered a pepperoni pizza, and we were impressed with the size and quality for the cost! We’ll definitely be back for more. ?”

“So yummy! The employees are super kind and the service is so fast. I got the vanilla and maple iced latte and it was a 10/10. The coffee is rich and everything about it is delicious.”

“Wow. Everything was absolute perfection. The beet salad was amazing, the homemade ricotta and granola, the honey dressing, the roasted beets- phenomenal. The bartender didn't miss a step either with my gin and tonic”

“I’ve eaten there a handful of times, every single time the brisket is on point! The sides are obviously homemade and excellent! Now that the hours are consistent, I have made this my go to BBQ in NWA. Excellent food! Take it from a KCBS certified BBQ judge, 5/5 would highly recommend!”

“My favorite lunch in Fayetteville! They have the BEST gluten free bread!! I have to stop myself from going more than once a week.
About $14 before tip for a delicious grilled cheese and kettle chips. I love the Scarlet Cheddar and the Cubano Melt. There's also a soup and half sandwich deal, but it's not on the menu.
Thank you!
