I took a weekend trip to Bentonville, Arkansas. Though I only spent about 2 days there, I found plenty of things to do.
ONE. Crystal Bridges in Bentonville. You could spend hours at the crystal bridges. The admissions is free and the whole place is extremely well kept. Stop by the cafe in the main building.
TWO. Black Apple Crossing Cidery in Springdale. This place was so much fun.. delicious ciders and good entertainment. This Saturday was comedy night and the material was fantastic. Also, there were tons of little metal puzzles everywhere. I love puzzles!
THREE. Botanical Gardens in Fayetteville. Beautiful, creative, and fun! $7 entry, totally worth it. This place was HUGE and we got to be in a room full of butterflies.
FOUR. Tontitown Winery in Tontitown. We didn’t go in, but Saturday they had live music. We sat in the parking lot and it seemed like a really great environment. Live music and an outdoor bar. Bring your lawn chair and relax!
FIVE. Sassafras Springs Vineyard in Springdale. My mom and I did some tasting here and the Rosa Di Rosa was sooo delicious. We bought 2 bottles. Price wasn’t bad and you get to leave with complimentary wine glasses!
SIX. Leaf Tea House in Fayetteville. So… there were a million options and it was hard to choose! I ended up getting a honeydew boba tea and my mom got an iced caramel macchiato.
SEVEN. The Pinnacle Hills Promenade Mall in Rogers. This was such a nice mall to visit. More like an outdoor plaza. Surprisingly organized. One section was mostly women’s clothing, there was a children’s row, restaurant row…etc. Loved it. Got two SUPER cute t-shirts from Girlie Girl.
EIGHT. The Pedaler’s Pub in Bentonville. This pub serves great food, great services, PET FRIENDLY on the patio, and introduces you to local brews and ciders. The pizza is wood fired and you get to watch them make it!
NINE. The Bentonville Square. Lucky for us there was an event Saturday morning where crafters, farmers, and food trucks set up all around the square and we got to look at all the unique and local talent. The waterfall in the center of the square is very pretty also.
TEN. Bike Rack Brewery in Bentonville. We didn’t have time to stop by here, but we did try the Golden Ale at the Pub. This was a delicious and light wheat beer.
