The Root Cafe

Went here while visiting Little Rock this weekend. Highly recommended and did not disappoint.

Got a Pimento Cheeseburger, a grilled ham and cheddar, large half and half fries, and a kids grilled cheese. Everything was great. My cheeseburger was delightful. The sweet potato fries were thicc boys. I really liked the dressing on the side salad too.

Prices were a smidge on the expensive side but you could tell why based on the quality. Food came out super quick too which was a pleasant surprise.

Next time I visit I will likely go back

Holy cow this was a great breakfast. We showed up around noon expecting to be able to get a hamburger but unfortunately on Sundays they don't start serving lunch until 2:00 p.m. So we ordered breakfast and boy was it fabulous. We most often share a dish so we did so this time and there was plenty of food for both of us. The omelette had ham and cheese and came with a salad and we ordered a side sausage with toast. There was an extensive line waiting to get in, it took us about 30 minutes to get through the line and to order and then another 20 minutes to receive our food at the table. This is definitely a locals secret spot. The outside is unassuming so don't let that change your mind about eating here. You will definitely not be disappointed. Fresh, tasty, and plentiful.

Nice place serving locally sourced foods and sells some of their own products. My wife had the cheese burger and said that it was excellent! I had the old world brat, but I found it lacking. The brat was dry and had no juice at all and had no bratwurst flavor to it. By bratwurst flavor I am referring to the combination of mace, ground caraway, cardamom, marjoram, and ground coriander that makes brats taste the way they do. The dishes were served with an impressive salad consisting of a nice blend of different greens and the house made vinaigrette had a wonderful herbaceous flavor. Maybe it was just an off day for brats, I would be willing to try one again when I'm in the area. All in all it's a nice place to eat and the service was good.

So glad we stopped at this charming cafe! The quirky decor and eclectic atmosphere is great. Their eggplant fries and vegan tofu banh mi were delicious, as was the spicy vegan gluten-free brownie!

A unique bohemian spot in Little Rock. The services are on point and the menu is very satisfying. The drinks are solid I tried the bloody mary. Although a somewhat crowded spot on a Saturday with a long wait. However the experience is totally worth it and definitely became a staple on a recent trip here.
The property is interesting and the furniture is definitely a home run. With handicap ♿️ parking and one surface over the area. I highly recommend this establishment for all people. Overall the experience was welcoming and made me feel comfortable.

Such a cool little spot! The food was amazing. The vegan pancakes are a must! The tofu scramble was different from what we expected but very good. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Definitely will visit again the next time we are in Little Rock.

We came across this place while searching for brunch places as we arrived into town. It was easy to find and we found parking on a side street. We were welcomed with a smile and someone explained us the process to order. We arrived after breakfast, so we had to order from the lunch menu.

I had the Pimento burger and my spouse the Spicy banh mi. We were told that the food was going to take around 50 minutes, but we decided to ordered anyway. The food came to out table and in probably around 20 mins.

The Burger and sandwich came with a side salad, which was delicious. Portions were reasonable and we left feeling full.

My spouse's sandwich wasn't as spicy, but it was still good

Average food affair..ordered Italian Cream Soda that tasted just like carbonated water, fries were fresh and crispy. Kim chi Sandwich was pathetic, can't take a proper bite as the cabbage was hard to cut either with teeth or knife. You will be better off getting a Grilled Cheese Sandwich. The fries came out a good 10 minutes before the sandwich, and they were cold by the time sandwich was served.

Staff is rude!!! First experience is the best and we interacted with 2 staff members in the front. I believe one of them was the owner, as she was walking around with a vendor list. I asked for a straw and she got so upset and said that they are by the front..how would I know?...and they are using plastic straws ;-)

Be ready to wait in line because it's worth the wait. Fresh local ingredients, quirky but cozy market feel, and great service. (Kim is the best!) Dogs welcome.

Nice local organic food with a lot of outdoor seating on a sunny day in a beautiful environment. Everything is locally sourced they even have cards as your table number that tell you about the local farmers. Drinks are even organic they offer a ginger honey lemonade. They're there half and half basket of fries is amazing sweet potato fries and regular fries season to perfection. Fresh beef, it tasted like the cows were vegan (not sure). I feel like this is a local spot as regulars were walking in I could over here somebody saying "I want the same thing I had yesterday." I understand why they came two days in a row the food's great. It's Nice little stop and a nice little town.
