Its conveniently located at the corner so there is easy access and visibility from the road. I was able to find my mug and purchase it without an issue. I do wanna point out the amazing staff working behind the counter. I just brought up a conversation about what their favorite thing to do in the city was and we had an amazing conversation. They were not busy when I went so it was easy to speak with them about things to do in the city. They really are a wonderful set up of people.

It tasted like straight coffee there's no white chocolate taste at all, you really should learn the difference between a iced mocha and a normal coffee. Maybe go ask the McDonalds across the road they can give you some pointers on how to make a good coffee and not give me literal dog crap in a cup.

Yelp led me to this wonderful little coffee stand in the middle of a parking lot and I'm so glad it…read moredid! It's drive thru only but absolutely worth the short trip from Hot Springs National Park. The owner is super friendly and remembered us when we returned a second time to get a latte on our drive home. Their original latte is so good on its own, with a perfect amount of sweetness and just a super smooth coffee. She makes the syrups herself and I also tried a pistachio biscotti latte my first time around and enjoyed the flavor, though it ended up being slightly too sweet for my personal tastes. We also picked up a muffin each time we visited and the owner bakes a solid muffin. They were super moist and flavorful and had a great crumb. While I'm sad this isn't local to me, it gives me a great spot to look forward to returning to!

Cute little coffee place in Hot Springs. Lots of mismatched decor in which you can buy just about…read moreeverything on the walls. Not my kind of aesthetic, but it works for a quirky coffee shop. Most of their offerings are lattes, cappuccinos, frappes. But they do have pour overs in which they use Mountain Bird coffee out of Holiday Island, AR. I ordered an Ethiopian pour over. Not an amazing cup of coffee, but it works and is better than straight up drip. Customer service is friendly, accommodating, and helpful. They seem understaffed, but the employees are working hard and are doing it with a smile. The only reason for the 4-star and not a 5-star is because I think the place is just too eclectic for me, extremely mismatched. I don't feel relaxed. Too busy, a little uneasy, not cozy to me. But I know others would disagree and love this place. Recommended of you want a yummy cup of Joe

A short trip outside of the main strip, Red Light Roastery offers an amazing cup of coffee, and…read moreopen seating area and very pleasant staff. My family was traveling through the area and whenever we travel we like to find local coffee shops, diners, etc. This trip was no different and we really enjoyed this little gem we found. We liked it so much we actually went back a second time the following day. Whenever we visit a coffee shop for the first time we always start with a basic coffee (usually espresso) to truly taste the coffee and gauge the quality. Red Light Roastery passed the test! Next we ordered a cold brew (also a good test of the quality of the coffee and diversity of the shop) and this was one of the better cold brews I have gotten at a small coffee shop. Alot of coffee shops struggle with cold brew but Red Light did a great job. Other drinks and foods are available but their main focus is on the more basic coffee drinks (real coffee drinks - not Starbucks coffee drinks).

This is a cute coffee shop and we visited to patron a small business. This was our first visit to…read morethis establishment. It was nice and open, clean, with bar seating at the window, a few tables, and a sofa to sit and lounge. Really small, quaint and cute! The baristas were friendly, we ordered a sticky bun coffee, heaven coffee, a Nutella scone & breakfast tacos. Although we were given numbers after ordering, it didn't take long to get our food or drinks. We both thought that our drinks were delicious. I got mine with oat milk and it was very smooth, sweet (but not too sweet) and overall great flavor and robust. The Nutella scone wasn't my favorite, but it was flaky, and good. The breakfast tacos were delicious. There was some kind of sauce they used over it that brought it over the top -- similar to me to Taziki sauce. Great experience and I would return when I am over in that area.

Ordered a cafe con leche with heavy cream & a your mama's? I think it's called lol cinnamon roll…read more Both were heavenly! The cinnamon rolls they had an entire page in the menu dedicated to some sweet, swirly cinnamon goodness options but all of them were $11.11 so I chose the classic one for $5 & change. Don't think I've ever seen a cafe or restaurant where most of their prices are with either the same 3 or 4 digits lol Reason why it's not 5 stars is the stimuli in that place was way more than I can handle. I ended up having to take deep breaths in car & take time to regulate my nervous system before driving off. Everything echoed & seemed like the decibel of sound doubled. From the blender for smoothies to the emptying out the coffee grounds from espresso machine against the trash can to the ear piercing drag of the chairs from patrons. Not the most peaceful place to eat & I certainly couldn't comfortably hold a phone conversation. Wouldn't hesitate to return but a to-go order it would be!

Am I too Asian for getting boba when out in a National Park in Arkansas..? I mean they have a shop…read morethere for a reason right? Anyways, in down town Hot Springs, my partner and I walked passed Zen Tea and decided to hop in for some drinks. It feels like a pretty standard boba shop except stretched out in a corrider. There's a hall with some seating you walk through before you get to the actual ordering area. Staff were nice and helpful, explaining the menu as they had idiosyncratic names for drinks. I went with a mango pandan drink with basil seeds. It was too sweet for my tastes but I'm not surprised as I forgot to ask for a sugar adjustment. It didn't have a strong flavor of mango or pandan and was just a general sweet flavor. It was refreshing still as we had just come out from the hot springs and a nice cold drink just hit the spot. Overall, I think it's an alright spot for boba. Not something I'd make the effort to go back to but wouldn't be opposed to stopping by if its there.
