Really nice experience at Meld. The food came out fast, was super fresh, and honestly felt really healthy without sacrificing flavor. Everything tasted clean and well-prepared. The sweet potato is huge--definitely big enough to share between two people, which was a nice surprise. Overall, a great spot if you want something quick, fresh, and satisfying. I'd come back read more

MELD is the top lunch spot for our entire family! The folded sandwiches are so well done with this flat bread that is crave-able! Don't be scared if there is a line. They are experts at efficiency and it has never been an issue getting in, getting food and getting out in a lunch hour. My husband loves their burgers as well and often will order their veggie burger add a beef patty and it is yummm! Be sure to try their specials and their soup! Great for a professional meeting and also good to go! We truly can't get enough read more

I found this restaurant on Yelp while searching for local favorites and it definitely lived up to the hype. We were there from about 11:30 to 1 and there was a constant line. It was busy but after about a 20 min wait to order, our food came out quickly. We had the giant spiced chicken sweet potato, which was delicious, especially with the avocado sauce. We also ordered the Big Beef and Chicken Caesar, a kids' pizza, mango tea, and a giant cookie. Everything was tasty and everyone enjoyed their meal. The restaurant is small and inside an apartment complex with outdoor seating. The staff was friendly, efficient and worked together really well to keep things running smoothly despite the lunch rush. I'll definitely be back! read more

I really enjoy their Greek sandwich and tomato soup ! I always order it through DoorDash and there's never any problems. The whole wheat bread (pita) that it comes with that I choose is always toasted perfectly. Their side of chips are tasty with the green onions. The tomato soup is perfect to me with just the right amount of cheesiness -- I'm a returning customer! read more

This was absolutely excellent lunch! Five stars all the way. Food Service Atmosphere ***** Thank you for the gluten free sandwich option-superb! read more

MELD Kitchen + Sandwich Bar - Taco Salad Sweet Potato - American Near Me - Bentonville, Arkansas

We have eaten here a few times and each time, the food was delicious. I like every menu item that I ordered. Food is always fresh and tasty. There is always a queue to order but the wait for the food to get to our table is not long. They need a bigger seating area during lunch times. read more

Visiting from another State . Eaten at several places nearby. This was our favorite restaurant. Everything was delicious. We will return on our next visit. Service was great. read more

I was from out of town and a friend suggested that I try it out. When I'm back in Bentonville. If you like sweet potatoes, you will love their take on it! read more

Unsuspecting little place inside of a building that looks like a hotel for a Bentonville outsider. I continually amazed out the quality of restaurants and food options here. This place is unique with hot fresh sandwiches, pizzas. Tacos and burgers. Fresh brewed Coffee and Tea. Fantastic food excellent flavor combinations. I'd recommend and for sure come back read more

Popular and for a good reason! Was craving a sandwich and wanted to try something local! Really yummy! Sandwiches are served so hot you can see the steam on them! Bread is delicious, a flatbread style! Really would love to try their fish tacos next time we stop by! Outdoor and indoor seating! Located within the exterior of an apartment complex. Casual! They'll bring your food to the table, but you grab your silverware and napkins! Reasonable prices for the quality and quantity! read more

MELD Kitchen + Sandwich Bar - Top left is chicken ceasar sandwich and bottom left is the Greek Sandwich - American Near Me - Bentonville, Arkansas

Hubby & I were visiting Bentonville and found MELD Kitchen in a quick online search of local fare and SO very happy we did! We had the most delicious "fold over" sandwiches. We both ordered the Greek on wheat. The sandwiches were huge and generously packed with meat & fresh toppings. Hubby enjoyed the fresh made slaw side & my kettle chips were a nice addition. Sandwich was so large, I had the other half for lunch the next day (was just as tasty the 2nd time around). In addition to the fantastic food, the owner was so friendly and helpful at order pick up. Highly recommend! read more

Always the BEST, freshly made soups, sandwiches, salads and pizza. Fantastic gluten free options. The whole family loves Meld!

The good: a cozy atmosphere. It is also clean. A smaller menu, but lots of good choices. The food is fresh. Ordering is easy. The staff are kind, friendly, and inviting. The not-so-good: the place is very small and therefore very difficult to find a table to sit at, even outdoor seating is hard to come by. My recommendation is that you either show up at 11:00am or after 1:00. Any time in between and its best to get your order to go, though I hardly think that is what people at lunch want to do. Also, the food is fine, not great. I got a burger, my friend got the sweet potato. Both were, again, fine. Needed more seasoning. That is an easy fix, but a fix that is needed. Finally, though the staff was kind & friendly, they looked stressed and overworked. I appreciate that this didn't ruin the experience, but having worked in a few restaurants, this is never a good sign. The bad: our order took 45 minutes to come out. That's right. 45 minutes. This was not true for other folks. I noticed that the people who ordered after us got their food in a timely manner. But not us. After 20mins, I asked about our food and the kind young lady at the counter said she would check on it. Then 10 more minutes went by. A staff member came by to check on us and I told them we still hadn't received our food. She said she would check on it. Ten more minutes. The restaurant was beginning to clear. I went to the counter to ask again, and yet another staff person had to check on it. Finally, after another 5 minutes, the food came out. The staff member told me that the kitchen had somehow lost my ticket or neglected it ... she wasn't sure which. She apologized and then promptly refunded half the meal, which I appreciated and was the right thing to do. Overall: I had a nice time at MELD with my friend, but I am not sure if I will return. I don't like that I have to scrap for a table during lunch like I did in Jr. High. I don't like that my food was bland-ish and neglected or forgotten, even though it came out hot and half was comped. And I don't like that you have to go so far to find the restroom. That said, the staff was friendly, the food is fresh, the prices are reasonable. I would recommended giving it a try, while knowing the pitfalls. read more

MELD Kitchen + Sandwich Bar - Burger...... - American Near Me - Bentonville, Arkansas

Order and pay at counter, then seat self either inside or outside on the patio. They deliver food to your table. Food is prepared fresh, so allow 15-20 min after ordering for delivery. Self serve water, napkins, utensils and condiments. We ordered the Big Beef sandwich and The Arugula Salad(but had it served as a sandwich). Food is delicious and generous portions for price. Dining room has benches and chairs with TVs placed on closed caption. Busy during lunch hour with steady movement of people through line. Plenty of parking with handicapped accessible in lot. read more

From the outside this appears to be a quaint little place tucked into an apartment building. What is inside is a delightful eating experience that provides a nice variety of pizza, tacos, burgers and sandwiches. Some dips, beer, wine and cookies, there is something for everyone. The service was quick and the food arrived just as fast. About 16 tables inside, this bright, delicious restaurant is a nice find in Bentonvile. My folded fish sandwich was lightly blackened grouper. My wife got fish tacos and according to her cooked perfectly. My side of coleslaw was in a tiny cup but I'm not complaining I liked the simple serving. read more

If you haven't tried this place, where have you been eating for lunch?? I've had about everything on this menu and I can't think of one complaint! Some of my favorites (and my families) are the pizza (any of them- the crust is delightful) and the taco salad sweet potato (get there early). Also love the Carlitos Way burger for the vegetarian in the family! The place is always clean and tidy. read more

I'm in town doing storm damage recovery from the storms and was looking for somewhere local and unique to grab a bite to eat. I came across this place from some other reviews.

So glad we found this place! It doesn't look like much from the outside, and it's tucked away by an apartment complex, but don't let that deter you. This place has great food! I ordered the mushroom carnitas and they were delicious! I upgraded to the side salad, and with both items I left very full! The employees were all super friendly. They had a few vegetarian options so I look forward to going back and trying others. Lots of options in general so there is something for everyone! read more
