    Not many A & W Root Beer Restaurants still around. This is the only location in Arkansas ! We…read morewere surprised to see it and had to get dinner there a couple days ago. We were in town for a small Army buddy reunion. When I lived in Las Vegas we had a couple that were attached to a Long John Silver's and they weren't very good and there is one in Oklahoma where I now live that also is attached to a Long John Silver's and they have the worst reviews in town and pictures are terrible. This location is not attached and was very clean and organized. There is one located in Boulder City , Nevada about an hour outside of Las Vegas , near the dam that is the old stand alone restaurant and it's pretty good. I got the Bacon Cheeseburger , Fries , and a Large Root Beer Float. The burger was very good and fresh , pilled high. Fries were also fresh. I expected the root beer float to be in a Frosty Mug , but the cashier told me later when I asked him , that they will ask you if you want the frosty mug if you get the Regular Size , but one of my friends got a regular and he said the cashier didn't ask him. My friend also asked for the Cheese Curds and got French Fries instead. He didn't feel like waiting for them to make the right order , so he just ate the fries. They had some T-shirts for sale for $20.00 and you can also by different mugs to take home , 2 regular sized and 2 large ones with different designs on them. It is located next to a gas station before you get on the highway , so it's a convenient location and parking is good. I would recommend coming here for trip down memory lane. If I would've been here a couple more days I would've came back and tried the Chicken Sandwich.

    I used the drive through which is all part of a convenience store, Exxon gas station, and on the…read moreother side of the building, a Jimmy John's drive thru at the busy interchange of Central ave and Highway 70. There are signs all over saying open under new management, etc., so thought I'd check it out. I ordered the single Papa burger with fries and -of course- root beer. This was one of the best fast food burgers I've had in recent memory. I'm a Dave's fan, but this was really good. Fries were good, well seasoned and the root beer was as I remembered it as a kid. Also treated myself to a root beer float-- also excellent. Nice non-teenage people at the window and although the wait was a little long, it was late in the day and they cooked it all fresh. Check it out, folks! It is the ONLY one in Arkansas.

They have…read morebig shady umbrellas and misters along the perimeter, so even if it's hot, it's not miserable. The staff were super friendly and didn't rush us at all. Kid and dog friendly - lots of cute dogs around. :) The beer and root beer are the stars of the show, they're brewed with the geothermal spring water - only brewery in the world to do that! The beer was tasty, and some had interesting ingredients like dill, basil, and jalapeño. I did wish they had a non-pickle flavored sour. I'm happy they offer flights to try different varieties! Food was decent, delicious fries and the elote nuggets were to die for. The bacon on my BLT had a nice peppered flavor. We finished off the afternoon with a root beer float which was lovely! They have a little gift shop (really just a small shelving unit) with goodies you can buy, if you're into that at breweries. We picked up some can cozies for $3 a pop!

    The beers are truly fantastic. I will come back, try their new brews, and fill up my growler as…read moreoften as possible. The setting, in a historic bathhouse, is amazing and fun. The downsides: no bar to sit at; you're either at a table or outside in the (very nice) Biergarten area. Most significantly detrimental, though, is the young staff. Without a manager in sight, they just unenthusiastically wander around, are disinterested, look at their phones, and reluctantly help the patrons (after having to be asked).

    Goodness Gracious! The Ohio Club may have been the HIGHLIGHT of our trip to Hot Springs! My…read moregirlfriend and I visited all of the bathhouses and other attractions, but kept coming back to our great memories of the Ohio Club! Located across the street from Bathhouse Row, the Ohio Club has had a long history in this town, having served gangsers, famous baseball players, and other celebrities. I can see why...I mean, they like great food and good drinks just as much as everyone else! The atmosphere is off-the-charts incredible and feels as if one is stepping back in time to 1920s America. Combine this with an amazing food menu and incredible drink selection, and you've got one helluva experience! Service was stellar...friendly and prompt. She was also very helpful with menu selections and drink choices, knowing exactly where to steer two virgins of the Ohio Club experience. We chose to share the Reuben, which was a great choice because it was so big. For drinks, we opted for the Ohio Rum Sour and Berry Ohio...never looking back as they were both delicious! WE...WILL...BE...BACK!!!

    The food was fine . it was super busy so be prepared for lots of noise and alittle chaos…read more Or server on the other hand was not alright. She seemed distant and not present. No real engagement and she seemed like it was a problem for her because I had specific food allergies. 7/10 atmosphere and presentation 2/10 service
