⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Nikki Pritchard
Just driving through and needed a coffee pick me up… what a treat it was to find this place! The barista was so kind and went the extra mile by offering me a recommendation and then tailoring the drink perfectly to my liking. The Arkan-Salted Caramel was delicious!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Francys Andreina Andrade Z.
Chicken Alfredo Pasta, 🤤uff... Better than Olive Garden. Is not in the menu, but I usually ask for it, and they cook it, delicious. Steak Ranchero (with little spicy sauce) uff. Carnitas y Carne asada tacos (Enjoy Tacos' Tuesday) The club house, sandwich. Delicious. The Flan and the cheese cake, uff.. 🥰
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Ben Tarpley
Seriously the best omelette I have had! Home made food, REAL food and absolutely delicious. I go often and am ALWAYS greeted warmly with smiles from all the staff. Including the cooks. Their redbull drinks are off the chain. I suggest the lulu or apple blossom flavors. Thank you for giving us something so great in Marked Tree!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Renee Pinkston
This cute little coffeeshop/restaurant is tucked in right beside the river and a little gem in Marked Tree. The place overall is small but there is a drive through and the employees are very kind. The espresso isn’t top notch in flavor and the only milk alternative offered is almond, but still a good place to stop if you want a cup of coffee or a latte that isn’t a gas station or McDs. I had a sausage breakfast burrito and it took a few minutes longer in the drive through but well worth it; you could definitely tell it was homemade. No frozen or ready to serve burritos here! It came with a side of salsa and all in all, very enjoyable! The menu is quite large. They offer plenty of breakfast staples along with pasties that I assume are house made.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Dustin Willis
Woke up early to enjoy breakfast with Ben at River’s Edge Bistro & Brew. The drinks are great and the food taste like home, and the staff are friendly. I’m so glad to have a place like this in town. Marked Tree, be sure to show up for local businesses.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jesus Carrillo
One of the best restaurants in the area. Staff is attentive and very friendly. The food is amazing and they also serve coffee in any style that you may like. They started serving authentic Mexican food and it has to be some of the best Mexican food in the area. My wife had the enchiladas and I had the Philly steak sandwich. The flan 🍮 is amazing.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Kent and Sharon Wieter
Stopped in for lunch driving through Arkansas. Really good food! Hot fries and a mouthwatering Philly cheesesteak.
