Hail Fellow Well Met

Edit: updating my review! Had the pleasure of trying here again for brunch and the food and atmosphere are still killing it but this time the full sit down experience was present and really loved the updates to the venue as well! Great job y'all! Instant local favorite. A++

We had similar items to a previous visit but this time also enjoyed the chocolate waffle made with au pain chocolate, delicious way to wrap up brunch and the bloody Mary was delicious with nice spice and smoky flavors.

Old review:
Went for Brunch. I had the Benjamin, Thrash potatoes, and avocado dessert. The Benjamin was amazing, hash brown patty topped with chorizo, poached egg, and hollandaise. The thrash potato was great but I failed to realize the Benjamin came with potatoes. The avocado dessert was half of a whole avocado topped with sesame and various spices but all separated out like stripes across the avocado, this made it hard to enjoy the flavors all in one bite. My friend did have one smashed on toast so it's better suited for that delivery method. Also had some yummy bloody Marys although a little over priced for what you get. A friend had the French toast and it was the best french toast I've ever had, very custardy and delightful balance of savior and sweet. Their blueberry muffin was huge and moist and full of blueberries! And if you're looking for a more traditional breakfast, then their Simple fish is for you!

The three stars is because the way the service is set up leaves half of a dining experience missing. You have to place your own order and payout all at once at a single point of sale. The only time you interact with service is when they bring out your order. Also, a friend took multiple attempts to get her drink order. They kept finding out they were out of every selection until my friend said they would take something, anything of that drink that they did have instead of suggesting a complete list of what was in stock. Staff was also taking up limited seating and only offered to move after they noticed our group would be split up.

So overall, presentation and food were on point but lacking the service typically expected from a restaurant experience.

Called ahead for reservations and everything confirmed only to arrive and not have our seats available. I understand there's a 15 min grace period but we were not told of this until we arrived and didn't get a spot. They also didn't call us or anything. We left frustrated after going a long way to try it out.

Great experience, decent food and if coffee is your thing it's amazing too! Outdoor and indoor seating. At the time of writing this they are in their soft-open phase so menu items are limited. The market at the entrance is great with lots of sourced items and fresh baked goods.

An almond croissant and a cookie for $8. Didn't get any coffee cause there wasn't any Splenda, Equal or stevia packets??? Cookie was small, croissant had a grainy, wet filling that wasn't very good. It's a soft opening, will try again in a few months.

To put it plainly we were not well met. Feels too New York for NWA. Why do you need a reservation to have a coffee. Was just way to complicated. I felt like I went to a country club, and I was NOT a member.

I had the Miss Biscuit on the October ‘22 menu and it was absolutely amazing! Definitely one of the best breakfast entrées I have ever had. The restaurant itself is designed and decorated so well and was very aesthetically pleasing. Of course, the coffee was exceptional as well. Can’t wait to go back and try something new!

Easily 5 stars. The food, drinks, decor, vibe, and service were all perfectly spot on for a Wednesday breakfast. I will be going back ASAP.

Fast service, friendly counter staff. Great food. Menu is kind of limited, but we can always find something that sounds good for lunch or brunch. Very nice atmosphere. Parking can be a little challenging during busy times, but you can usually either park in the lot or on the street.

What can I say, Well Met is basically my second home. Great coffee, amazing staff, spectacular food and the best atmosphere you're going to find anywhere. I'll see you there.

Went here with my wife and her friends, we really like all the other onyx coffee spots but this one wasn’t quite on par, the service was fast but the coffee was cold when it got to our table and the Miss Biscuit was really dry.

Cool atmosphere but if you’re concerned about the food at all there are several other options I would recommend first.
