The Tower Bar offers some of the best views but does reach capacity on most weekends. Go early to get your spot. You can also grab a cup of coffee in the Onyx Bar or have lunch next door at the 8th St Market.

Nature Walk
Enjoy nature on accessible trails.
Coler is a beautiful place to walk or ride your bike. Not only does it have some of the most challenging mountain bike trails, but you can also hike or walk on their paved accessible trail. Make sure to stop at Airship in the middle of the trail for a cup of coffee and breakfast or lunch and beer. Kids also love the swings along the trail.

In addition to all that Bentonville has to offer, visit downtown Rogers where you will find some unique shops, fantastic restaurants, and a great park. Just a little further is Lake Atalanta where I love to walk or ride my bike on the trail around the lake.
Check out Springdale, Fayetteville, and Siloam Springs as well. Eureka Springs is a gorgeous one hour drive away. Lots to do around here.

Food scene
Bar Cleeta is a great place if you love to grab a bunch of small plates and share with friends. Be adventurous with their wine list. It is curated by a wine expert and I always find a new wine I like. This isn't kid-friendly though so plan a date night.

Another place to enjoy with a loved one or a group of friends. Kids are welcome but they probably won't like the menu much. Enjoy the patio on nice evenings and make sure to check out Undercroft, their speakeasy bar in the basement (if you can find the entrance).
