Food scene
Here are a few places around Bella Vista, Bentonville and Rogers area of NWA to try if visiting. We have tons of great local places to grab food from. These are just a few. It's hard to say our favorites because we have so many and you can't list them all. Also a lot of great food trucks and the Bentonville square hosts a good variety on weekends at the square.

Lots of great local restaurants and in the warmer months, the revamped park and music venue is a great place for families and friends to hangout and enjoy the local vibes.

Very relaxed environment and awesome art on the walls worth checking out. Local place to hangout and have a few drinks and some good food, but don't be in a hurry this place is a chill vibe and not always speedy with service. Also Rogers downtown area gets quiet pretty early, so if you are accustom to late nights in bigger cities, this is not the scene in NWA.
