Hail Fellow Well Met

This place is one of my favorite places to meet for coffee. Wonderful ambience and great coffee (Onyx). I always get their ham, egg and cheese on croissant but, I’m sure everything else on the menu is wonderful too.

Too fancy for me. But my 8 month old son liked the vegan yogurt and loved the creamy scrambled eggs. If your tastes are simple (typical diner food), you will not like this. If you like plate presentation, small portions and a menu with lots of uncommon words used to describe food, you will love it.

Customer service to the max. I ordered a particular drink on their Spring menu. Funny enough I got so caught up with work I forgot to even take my first sip when they brought it to my table. Kelsea (hope I spelt your name right) kindly checked in on me to see if I enjoyed my drink since I hadn't touched it for a solid 10 minutes. She offered to make me a new drink in case I didn't like it! (BTW I loved the drink). Shout out to Sea Foam.

Long review but worth it! I will be walking out the door knowing they wanted me to have a great experience (which it was)!

Beautiful place, atmosphere and food is definitely “instagram worthy” but the place just does not make sense. The place could be empty and they want you to have a reservation. I met up with friends for dinner and cocktails and my spouse and I waited 20 minutes for one cocktail. When the arrived it tasted so gross almost like stomach acid. It was called the Romeo and Juliet and was supposed to have rum, lavender, honey ect. Did not taste anything like the description. I sent the drink back and just got Prosecco seemed like the safest option. The old fashioned my spouse got was not impressive either. Needless to say we left and did not eat dinner. It took entirely too long for anything to get to the table. The employees kept coming to our table trying to grab things off which is normally appreciated but it was so often that it seemed like they were trying to get us to leave or something. Idk weird vibes for sure. You also pay all kinds of fees on top of the normal taxes. We had two drinks and our total was $27. The fees would have been fine had the service been great. If you are paying premium prices than the service should reflect, unfortunately it does not. Definitely will find a new place to meet for dinner/cocktails.

This is my favorite place in NWA! We got spoiled living in Dallas for 5 years. After moving here, I struggled to find a place in the Springdale area that was unique, stylish, delicious and local! I was so excited when HFWM opened and it’s become my favorite place to meet a friend and enjoy great coffee and food. The design and style of the interiors is inspiring but my favorite place is the long outdoor on a cool crisp morning. Give me an iced terra cotta and avocado toast any day! 😋

Food was very pretty 🤤 Almond croissant was fabulous!

The staff at this establishment are fantastic, and I truly appreciated the serene ambiance when it was solely a coffee shop. The coffee, though slightly pretentious, was of high quality and consistently good. The snack and finger food options were enjoyable, albeit small in portion size and somewhat overpriced.

Recently, we returned around 1:30 PM, intending to sit down and work, but were informed that they now only accept reservations for brunch and dinner. While this was a minor inconvenience, we found alternative locations to work. Later, I booked a dinner for two, hoping to experience a delightful night out.

We began our meal with an appetizer of bread with pork fat. Unfortunately, the bread was hard and the pork fat lacked flavor, prompting us to add salt. Even just the butter by itself provided a better accompaniment for the bread. For our entrees, I ordered the beef cheek ($40) which, while the sauce was tasty, the rest didn't quite live up to the price tag due to its small portion size. The accompanying mushroom-based sauce was overly salty, though it did add a nice touch to the dish in moderation. The side of quinoa, while visually appealing, was rather bland.

My partner selected the Adobo-Yogurt Jidori Chicken ($34), which was also served in small portions and lacked any distinctive qualities beyond its elegant presentation. In essence, it was a simple chicken dish that left us underwhelmed.

It seems that the restaurant has shifted its focus to creating Instagram-worthy dishes, prioritizing visual appeal over taste. The menu utilizes sophisticated language and premium ingredients to suggest a Michelin-star experience, but the execution falls short. Ultimately, our meal totaled around $200, a sum we would have been content with if the experience hadn't been so disappointing.

If the portions were 25% larger and the prices halved, the value might be more justifiable. However, unless you're seeking a crowded, noisy, and uncomfortable setting to spend 1-2 hours and are willing to pay $75-100 per person for a less-than-satisfying meal, I wouldn't recommend this place. But if your goal is simply to showcase an extravagant dish and an impressive receipt on your Instagram to impress your followers, then this establishment might be right for you.

I’ve never tasted fish I didn’t like until today, and the chicken was dry and bland… the pre-cooked chicken at Walmart is tastier and juicier. Luckily the portions are so small you don’t have to suffer for long. If u order the fudge dessert take a chisel and if u want a beer… it’s comes from a can. The service was on the pathetic side of indifferent. This place is proof that expensive food with pretentious names does not mean it’s good food. On the up side, the plating was pretty and the ambiance was nice.

This is my favorite brunch spot in NWA! The food, staff and atmosphere is top knotch! Have and will keep recommending such a lovely spot!

Very sad visit they were out of my first and second select. Had the chicken salad which tasted and smelled like tuna salad. Visited this new restaurant for the first and last time. Good luck
