“This was one of the BEST dinner experiences my husband and I have ever had. And that’s saying something as we fine dine often. Our waitress, Naomi was very knowledgeable and Naomi’s service was Top Tier!! The steak and salmon were both excellent!! My compliments to the Chef!!”

“We had originally planned to go to Arnie's Barn but it was closed. The good was good and the atmosphere was enjoyable. Our waitress was amazing. The price is high, but you are paying for the experience.”

“Second time here and was as good if not better than before. Their location has moved in the past year but it's not much further than it was before. We highly recommend the loaded hash browns. Their portions are big so if you aren't starving you could easily share. The service is always top notch too! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED”

“As the publisher of Arkansas’s largest lifestyle magazine, AY About You, I’ve sipped coffee from coast to coast, but let me spill the beans: nothing—save for my husband’s sacred morning brew—holds a candle to the liquid gold served at this charming little coffee haven just outside Branson. Nestled near the shimmering shores of Table Rock Lake, this quaint gem is a love letter to cozy vibes, driftwood decor, and caffeine-fueled daydreams. Stepping inside, you’re greeted by an atmosphere so warm it could thaw a polar bear’s heart. The place is decked out in rustic driftwood accents, with plenty of nooks for a clandestine business meeting, a solo book-reading escape, or just some good ol’ people-watching. It’s the kind of spot where you could pen your next novel or simply eavesdrop on local gossip—both equally productive pursuits. The star of the show? The coffee, of course. I ordered a classic coffee, a macchiato, and an iced caramel macchiato, and let me tell you, the barista—a delightfully friendly gal with a smile brighter than a Branson stage light—nailed it. This wasn’t some half-hearted syrup-slinging operation; they use real caramel, the kind that makes your taste buds do a happy jig. Every sip was a masterclass in flavor! And the value? For a publisher who’s seen her fair share of overpriced lattes, this place is a steal. Five stars? Oh, honey, I’d give them six if I could. I’m in town for two days, and you bet your sweet biscuits I’ll be back tomorrow, cozying up with another cup of their magic. To this little coffee shop: thank you for making my road trip not just bearable, but downright delightful. Keep pouring that liquid sunshine!”

“One of our favorite places to eat. We always visit here when we come back to town. Breakfast is our favorite but lunch and supper are great also. Very friendly staff, a lot of them have worked there for years, which shows that the enjoy their job.”

“Hunt Brothers Pizza is a great pizza for anybody searching for really good tasting food the employees are always very respectful their Pizza is also never undercooked or overcooked it is always just right with a perfect amount of toppings”

“Had the pleasure of having a few pours today with Kelley as our bartender. He was friendly and fun and we shared laughs and suggestions on pours. Really nice way to unwind in the afternoon!”

“The serve at the bar was awesome!! The bartender ‘Tim’ was friendly and provided great service! We highly recommend the Buzzard Bar!”

“My first time Glamping and Big Cedar does it right. I was in unit 37 which I highly recommend as its in a quite area compared to other units but convenient to everything. The unit itself was very cool, we had all the comfort of a hotel room but were in a tent which we were able to keep the sides open and have a beautiful view of the lake and wildlife. Great water pressure in the shower, heat and AC when needed and a TV just in case I wanted to watch some sports. The deck had spectacular views of the lake. A few small issues, the Canteen which is the only food location at Long Creek was either closed or was out of stock on most items when we went for breakfast. Check out Table Rock Coffee up the road for beverages and a small selection of pastries. The best breakfast we had (great pancakes and biscuits) was at the Log Cabin Inn off resort about 10 minutes away. Also if you are a light sleeper, the birds and other animals make a crazy amount of noise at sunrise. On demand shuttles were quick and efficient and all other dining, golf and activities were excellent.”

“Love grabbing a bite at Truman Cafe & Custard! Clean, friendly service, and tasty food! Ordered the Smoked Salmon Bagel, it was upmost delicious!
Thank you again!”

“My daughters and I dined here and I am absolutely stunned by the amazing views from every angle of the restaurant and bar!! Beautiful and the food was absolutely delicious! We will come back every year!”

“The food was decent. Nothing to write home about.\n\nSome in our group enjoyed fish and chips.\nThe pizza was eaten quickly.\nI was told the bison burger had a weird texture and only half was eaten.\nThe nachos consisted of about two bags of chips, 2 cups of congealed nacho cheese, a drizzle of bbq sauce, and maybe 1/2 cup of brisket. The remaining toppings we ordered on the side. Wouldn’t get them again. \n\nHowever, Jeremy, our server, was so polite, kind, understanding, and on top of things. Our entire group couldn’t stop talking about him and we made sure to let him know as well. If only every server could be like him!”

“Our second time visiting Arnie’s Barn. Want to say thank you to TJ for waiting on us and making it a memorable time. Food was great and atmosphere was great. Thank you again and we will be back.”

“This place was amazing. Unfortunately we got there just after sunset but the atmosphere and Christmas lights were amazing. We were seated quickly and had an amazing server named Anthony. He was super knowledgeable about the Drinks and walked us through the whole menu and tended to us graciously. The food was absolutely delicious and hate great plate presentation. We will absolutely be coming back hopefully for the sunset next time!”

“This is far and away the best sports bar in town. Heck - they are pretty much my favorite place to eat, period! Their wings are the best ever - char-grilled, not fried or baked (as some mistaken reviewers have claimed. Everything is quite affordable, the service is beyond excellent, and the drinks are excellent! Do they get busy? Heck yes - and that's always a good sign! Do they occasionally have an off night? Doesn't every establishment? But do they respond to issues and take care of the situation? Absolutely! I often joke that this place is my own Cheers bar, as the staff is so good and know my name! If their food, drinks or service sucked, or was incredibly inconsistent, I'd never recommend them. But they are the best in town - and my first recommendation if someone wants a good place to watch a sporting event, they will always be my first choice to recommend!”
