The Q On Main

The ladies in this ice cream shop make a mean shake. I had the parent trap and it was fantastic. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere is great. I would definitely stop here again. We stopped in after riding the Talimena National Scenic Byway.

One of the recommended coffee shops while in Mena. The shop is located in downtown once you descend from Talimena drive. Courteous staff,quick service and ambience is good. HappyCoffee

In town dropping my son off at college and stopped in for an ice cream. This place is absolutely gorgeous. The atmoshere was just so pleasing. The old parts of the building sneaking through the walls and stairs are beautiful. The swing was my absolute favorite part. The ice cream was delicious even though it wasn't Blue Bell. I can't wait to stop in again on my next trip up to visit my son.

Amazing sweet treats!

TL:DR
Delicious ice cream and home-baked goodies to die for! Grab a milkshake... you won't regret it.

Details:
We visited after a full lunch, so I can't speak to the food, but the dessert... oh boy.

We shared a chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream, and it made me cry a bit with joy. Perfect flavor, warm chocolate and delicious homemade vanilla.

I also had a peppermint milkshake, and it was AMAZING. Best I have ever had, flavor and consistency was perfect.

Do yourself a favor and catch dessert here!

Came to Mena to show my friend the Talimena byway. Stayed in Mena before but never made it to this place. When we were looking for this restaurant there was no sign outside with this name. It looks like it may have been missing from out front. I ate the special of the day that was a brisket grilled cheese and a shake. Both were delicious! The Brisket was fantastic and the sourdough bread made it even better. My friend had the club and said it was great.

We went on their last day before they close down indefinitely. The ice cream was really good. The service was great. I wish the owners the best on their future endeavors

I absolutely love the vibe of this place. They serve the best ice-cream and treats. I know they also serve salads and sandwiches. I've always ordered the molten lova cake with ice-cream. Such good service and it's really relaxed. No rush hang out enjoy! They are closed on Mondays

Even though they lost power, they still served us and were SUPER nice. We loved our ice cream, especially the banana split. The atmosphere is relaxing, down to the front porch swing! The strawberry flavor was my favorite.

Small mom and pop ice cream soda shop. You get 2 huge shake specials for $20. Better bring an appetite. We missed the un-fried pies. They were already sold. They must be good. Look at the photos and go get some ice cream.

Great place for breakfast and lunch, well worth the stop. The kids lived their ice cream.
Beef Brisket Melt was a show stopper

Owners are so friendly. Came here during our CMA rally nearby. This place is beautiful and the fried pies and ice cream are brilliant together. A must experience when you are here.

Such a cool shop! The food and drinks were well worth the hour drive. I will definitely be coming here again.

Gypsy and I stopped for an ice cream after our motorcycle ride over the mountain road.
The ice cream was very good. We will definitely return when we get back to Mena.

What an awesome little shop. The staff was awesome, the ice cream delicious, and the price right all inside an awesome building.

Really liked this place. We stopped and ate breakfast. Not a lot on the breakfast menu that I saw. My wife got a croissant and I got a BLT and ice coffee. It was good and a nice place. Wish Mena had more places for breakfast on a Tuesday morning.

While visiting Mena a friend brought me to grab some coffee. I’m so glad I went! The decor and vibe was so incredibly cute and fun, but the coffee was even better! Definitely worth stopping by if you are travelling through the area.

Contrary to what Google says The place is not named the q, is called Susie Q's restaurant and ice cream parlor. It's a really nice building with a great atmosphere but limited seating. The staff is very friendly although the service is a bit slow if you want actual food, but the food is absolutely worth the wait. Super high quality and very fresh ingredients. Well worth checking out

First time visiting and loved the atmosphere! I had the most amazing and fresh salad and brown sugar iced coffee and it was delicious!! Can’t wait to visit again!

Great place to go and relax and eat an ice cream or drink some coffee.. I love buildings like this,,,

Best ice cream in Mena! And it's served in ice chilled bowls!
Great Great treat after leaf peeping all day!
