14 Best Cafes near Holiday Island

“Owners Erin and Bryce make everything from scratch, (biscuits and gravy, best burgers, bread their own chicken, and more)! . Good food!“

“This is a place my wife and I enjoy eating lunch when we are in Eureka Springs. The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly. This is one of those places you need to patronize at least once! But if you do, like us, you'll probably end up going back.“

“This was a recommendation from a lovely local that we met at Gotahold brewing, and we are so glad we tried it for lunch! Perfect brunch spot with mimosas and amazing food. The servers were all super nice and so cute! They had perfect makeup and hair, which I know is random, but they were very cool folks. They had specials on a chalkboard, and I tried the monte cristo bake with a side salad. It was the most unique and perfect way to change up a monte cristo! It was amazing. And the jalapeno ranch for my salad was spicy and delicious. The husband had the shrimp and grits, and it rivaled any NOLA eatery. Definitely give this place a try! It has parking too!“

“My fiancé and I have never both loved one place so much! The ladies working there are so beyond sweet and friendly, and don’t even get me started on how good the food is. The chai latte was one of the best I’ve had, and the french toast too. But the star of the show was the bruschetta that my fiancé got, we both were obsessed! We will be back here for sure :)“

“Local Flavor Cafe really hits the spot if you’re looking for some genuine, down-to-earth eats with a touch of class. Run by Britt and Connie Evans, this place is all about whipping up fantastic dishes from scratch, using the freshest stuff they can find. Britt’s been around Eureka Springs forever, and Connie’s Napa roots shine through in their killer wine list—seriously, it’s got something for everyone. They’ve got dinner, lunch, and a Sunday brunch that are all worth checking out. Plus, their cocktail game is top-notch. It’s a great spot to kick back, enjoy some tasty food and drinks, and just soak in the good vibes.“

“My husband and I stopped in here after finding them on Yelp. We drove right past it. They have a small sign and are actually inside a boutique store. We checked back and I'm really glad we did, They have limited inside seating and there happened to be a rush when we got there. We would have been fine sitting at the counter but they brought a table in from outside for us. It was way too hot to sit outside. The sisters were sooo nice. They have a limited menu but the 2 sandwiches we tried were amazing. I had the chicken salad on a croissant. It was one of the best chicken salads I've ever had. There were grapes and nuts and the perfect amount of mayo. The chicken was so soft and tender. The croissant was soft and so fresh. Amazing sandwich. My husband had the Italian panini. He loved it. The only thing I would add was a handful of potato chips with the sandwich. They did have chips for sale but I didn't see them til I was checking out. I highly recommend this tiny restaurant. The sisters were beyond nice and the food was amazing“

“Came here for my wife's sister's reception. I really enjoy the atmosphere, a very vibey coffee shop feel. For us personally, the whole staff was beyond incredible and nice all night while people were ordering all kinds of drinks. I really appreciate how above and beyond the staff were in helping with all kinds of things. The food made here for the reception was also top tier. Great barbecue, great baked potatoes, all wonderful. I ordered a caramel latte and it was amazing, the strawberry banana smoothie was also top tier. Definitely worth the money!“

“They accommodated our table of 11 very quickly. The service was great. They kept our drinks full and checked on us often. Very nice staff. Food came out quickly and was pleasantly surprised at how good the burger was. Highly recommend if you’re in Eureka visiting and want a good experience.“

“Absolutely delicious vegan food, unique and innovative menu options, with fresh locally sourced produce. A bit off the beaten path, but well worth the drive.Vegetarian options: The spices on the grilled mushroom slider !The freshness of the chilled Strawberry soup!“

“Well worth the little bit of an uphill walk to get there from the main drag. eclectic artsy central perk vibe. Breakfast sandwiches were good. A tad on the higher-priced side, but comparable to others around. Three of us each had a hot drink and sandwich and it was about $40 before tax/tip.“

“Great pizza. Had the pepperoni special and garlic knots, wow! Awesome stuff. Service was fast and friendly. Will be back for sure.“

“Ask the man for his special rum concoction. It's pretty decent. Your standard bar that is a little run down, but with tons of charm. They food is alright, but the spinach artichoke is always bomb.Parking: Paid parking in the lot adjacent to the front entrance.“

“This is one of my favorite breakfast places in Eureka. The atmosphere is casual and rustic. Always great service. Mimosas are served in a Mason jar and oh so tasty! I had spicy garlic baked grits topped with steamed veggies and cheese. It was a flavorful dish. Slightly spicy, lightly salted and the veggies were done just right-carrots, zucchini, yellow squash and peppers and onions. Topped lightly with salsa and black olives. The half order was still more than I could finish. The menu is eclectic; not your average fare.“

“This is our favorite hang out in Eureka. Great local musicians, good food and plentiful drinks. The outdoor patio is as eclectic as the town. Seating consists of picnic tables and patio tables and chairs. The stage is carved out of the side of the hill and very rustic. Food was good but the draw is certainly the music.“
