    Our favorite of the Q places we visited while in NWA recently. Overall, very good. It would be in the top 30% in places like KC or TX (and in the rest of the South--NC, SC, AL, GA). But it doesn't hit the top 10% in any of those. Still, VERY good and enjoyable. I'd give 4 1/2 stars if Yelp had that option. Beautiful, just right tenderness and flavor, brisket (bark the tiniest bit light). Absolutely stunning and delicious chiccharrones (still crackling as they arrived). Pork belly and brisket burnt ends were also delicious. Pulled pork nachos were good, but better with a bit of the Carolina mustard-based sauce. Collards were great after a hit of the hot vinegar (they should add a bit of vinegar when they make them). Street corn was very good. Smoked beans a bit disappointing--okay, but they need a bit more flavor depth and smoke. Nice sauce selection. Pleasant and comfortable space (but relatively small). We will definitely return. In fact, we had an additional order delivered from here on a Friday when the line was long out the door. This joint tops the others we tried in the area (yes, that includes the much vaunted Wright's). We will try some of the other smaller spots on our next visit. But right now, this is number one in the NWA Q scene in our (deep Q experience around the world) book.

    A three-star Michelin review means that a place is worth a "special journey." With that in mind, Beach BBQ is a Pablo Three Estrellas establishment. I'd spend a tank of gas getting here with no regrets. Everything here is wonderful. The vibe when you walk in is a mixture of a nod to tradition with wooden beams overhead and a modern, chill vibe with cool tunes quietly welcoming visitors. We were first in for the day and the team was patient and helpful. We tried just about everything over two 3-meat plates. Of special note are the pork and brisket burnt ends. They are worth getting here early and waiting in line. They are firm and flavorful without being dried out. The flavor carries the smoker's kiss without being overpowering. The turkey is peppery and still moist. Just the right amount of smoke to let you know what's up. Pork ribs fell off the bone and were not sloppy wet. The sauces are great and unnecessary. Every single detail is handled well. Do not drive through Bentonville without stopping here.

    truly the best bbq in town. the pulled prok nachos are out of this world i liked it very much. i was busy with other snacks and so did not go all over the other bbq meats. but from the samples i tried the pork belly and the brisket both of which are worth comming back for. finally the brisket washed old fashioned cocktail is something interesting so i tried it. the bar tender made it strong and i enjoyed it. nice ambience and friendly staff. high points to Travis the manager 5 stars

    Food was very good. Smash burger and mac & cheese were delicious! Staff is all very friendly and came to check on us to see how the food was. This place is a great vibe to watch a game or casual lunch with friends.

    Stopped in on a random Wednesday afternoon and am so glad I did. The owner was so kind and the food was awesome! The salad was massive and had a lot of unique flavors -- if you take anything from this review, get your hands on the kimchi slaw. It's unreal. I need that recipe. If you're looking for some yummy barbecue in relaxed environment, please go support this place!!

    Wow, I'm soooo excited to have finally found/tried this place. For my husbands birthday, we were driving towards a different area for lunch when we stopped near Beach BBQ at a stop light. It said open and it was a weird time (10:45 am lol) so we decided to give it a go. From the moment we stepped in, l knew I loved the whole vibe and aesthetic. The man working at the counter was cheerful and helpful and kind! Loved the many samples he let us try, it was such a nice welcome for the first time here. Food is toppppp notch. Absolute quality. I panic ordered and shoulda got what I sampled (pork belly... unREAL!) and even so, it was still amazing. Prices are a bit more expensive than what you're used to paying for lunch, but honestly-- being able to refill my drink whenever I want, helping myself to the sauce bar, and relaxing in the well decorated and nicely lit dining area-- worth it. I feel a new hyperfixation coming on! Loved it so much and will continue to spread the word about it. Thanks so much!

    I tried Beach BBQ as a recommendation while visiting Bentonville. After the first bite, I wanted more of it! The Inside = Once inside you are greeted with the smell of oak used to smoke the delicious meats. Tables were clean and a nice bar area where I had one of the best Old Fashioned while I waited for my food. The Service = Super friendly! This is a place where you order at the counter. The staff was super helpful with deciding what I should get as there was a plethora of offerings to choose from. The Food = DEE LISH OUS! On this trip, I ordered the 3 meat combo. Brisket = Nicely seasoned, moist, and tender with just the right amount of smoke. Spare Ribs = I got this as a recommendation and it didn't disappoint! Well seasoned and tender with a little toothiness to the bite. I have to admit, I like the cartilage :) Pork Belly = Again, nicely seasoned, moist, and tender. For the sides, I got the collard greens which was awesome. A little spicy a little vinegary a lot of flavor. I also got the Mac and cheese which was creamy and decadent. I was also offered some freebies which included potato bread, pickles, and pickled red onions. All went well with either sopping up or cutting the delicious smoked fattiness of the meats. Verdict? I'll be back! Thanks for the nice experience Beach BBQ! Welp! Onto the next!
