The good: Superior coffee. Mechanics available at 8 AM and quickly resolved my bike's shifting problem (replaced a worn chain and straightened the bottom bracket.)The bad: Pretense. The mechanics were stand-offish. The clerk who spoke to me treated me as I if I were stupid. Wouldn't speak to me while they were doing their outdoor rideability evaluation. I know a thing a two about bikes, and his recommendations that I needed a new front fork and a new rear shock to stop the suspension noises were bogus. Talk about trying to dupe me into spending money I didn't need to spend.Caveat emptor. Let the buyer beware. Know what you're doing if you walk into this place otherwise you will spend too much. There are several other bike shops in town that, while not open until later in the morning and don't serve coffee, are much friendlier and will give you the straight dope.

Great service! Bike was taken care of while I had breakfast in the cafe.

The margarita pizza has a spicy sauce on it. It is not spicy because of the garlic (as the staff claimed and argued with me about). I like it, my kids would not eat it. There are not other options for kids. I’m sure this is a great place for adults, but don’t expect to eat here with kids.

Bike shop & connected Coffee Cafe, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating space. Close to bike trail just a block north of the Momentary Park & Amphitheater.

I've been here a couple of times and it's very consistent. The menu is fairly limited, but they put out good food. You can also grab a beer here as well. They share the space with a bike shop so it's an interesting environment.

The ambiance was fun and diverse. The coffee was not good though. I got a cortado (which I get often) and it was very acidic.

Friendly, kind staff, delicious coffee and tea. Very pleasant, relaxing atmosphere. Broad variety of drinks.

The food is always fresh! The pizza is to die for and their wine selection is always great. I've been here for dinner, brunch, or just when I need to work remote. The atmosphere is very cool and the vibe is chill. Definitely recommend visiting the Meteor.

Ordered the gluten free margherita pizza to go. Said they'd take 15 minutes. I took longer to get there and by the time I picked it up it was not hot and the crust was very hard. Possibly because I didn't get it when fresh and hot. Or maybe gluten free crust is always like that - I have never eaten that before. It appeared to be flavorful so maybe it just needed to be enjoyed hot. Service was friendly. Ambience is okay.

Highly recommend this place - I was on a ride and had a mechanical issue with my stem/fork. Made it to the meteor planning to just buy a part and fix it at home, but these guys were amazing. Busy Saturday and they threw my bike in a stand and fixed it for me in about 5 minutes. Super helpful and friendly!
Ordered the Shawarma chicken salad. Think they forgot my order. Went in to check on it after waiting 20 minutes and got some old rice and chicken scraps. I realize it was an off time but I would have preferred they told me they were out of the ingredients than charge me $17.

If you are Non-white, do not come here for service. I travel for work, and play, I am a remote nomad. I came to Bentonville for an investment opportunity and after the racist experience here, I left the town early. First thing that happened, was that I asked the Barista, if a table will open up soon, if I place my order to sit in . ( The place was packed and I was a party of three.) He literally laughed in my face. A table opened up right at that moment and one of my colleagues went and grabbed it. The other barista went and did not clean the table my colleague was at but another table near them. We moved tables. When we moved tables the other barista went and cleaned the table we were at leaving food on the chairs. The next thing that happened was that the barista served the whole line of people after my party all of their food and drink before serving us. They then served our drinks in to go cups. Next up was the food. I ordered two breakfast tacos and I received a tiny drop of salsa in a plastic container. I asked for more salsa and he told me no that I needed to finish that. Never in my life have I been told no when I asked for more sauce. After eating our food, because we had a long drive before us, we left town. I was so sad about this rude experience. It was the kind of thing when you are the only non-white person in the room and get treated differently and so rude that you are like Oh yes.. it's Racism. To make things, worse they allowed folks to set up a tv/video game playing situation without paying for drinks, right next to me. Those folks were white. The staff need a DEI training, but more than that, I would just say if you have melanin stay away from here.

Made some quick adjustments to my kids dropper post and wouldn’t take my money! Great conversation and breakfast tacos were good!
