211 Cafe

YOU FOUND THE BEST

At first I liked Starbucks and was relatively happy with all the coffee places in town, but after going here a few times, nothing else compares. It’s not even close. I’ve been going here almost every day for years and when they’re closed we go home and make coffee with their awesome Guatemalan beans.

HERE’S WHY

I think I’ve figured out why it’s so much better. I can speak to the heart and the taste.

They roast differently - they only use a medium roast and I know that every other shop mostly serves a dark roast and I don’t know why you would, because you lose the coffee taste, the caffeine and have to replace it with sugar to taste decent.

THE TASTE & WHAT TO TRY

The coffee is so pure tasting and never bitter! Not even the espresso. I love the breve and don’t usually get sweet drinks, but their honey, cinnamon latte is on everyone’s list of favorites. All their syrup are made in house and are not too sweet. They’re the perfect blend of sweet and coffee. Also the iced, decaf, mocha with oat milk is like a oatmeal cookie. Oh yeah and they’re decaf doesn’t have any chemicals because they use the Swiss water technique to extract the caffeine. Every little thing it perfect.

NICEST COFFEE SHOP AWARD

They also are so flipping nice! I went in once 5 years ago and we were friends because all the sudden we had coffee in common and that’s all it takes. Ask anyone who goes there and they’ll tell you the same. Mauricio the owner is your friend and Katrina is secretly the best barista in town.

FOOD OPTIONS

Their food options are mostly made in house and although they sound plain - they all have an extra little detail that makes them something you can’t get anywhere else. The prices are great for a budget too.

They have large patio and fast WiFi for working or letting the kids play too.

-OK NOW GO TRY IT-

This is the best coffee shop around in every way. Every time I travel I compare places to 211 and rarely find one as good. It’s the new standard. Try it and you’ll know what I mean.

Absolutely amazing little place in the heart of Bentonville. It's main entrance is located at an alley located behind Bentonville's City Hall. You can also find breakfast burritos and incredible Guatemalan Hot Chocolate! Definitely recommend!

Excellent coffee, remarkable service, delish scones.
This is a great little coffee shop, fresh ground, comfy seating, and they feature items from local artist for purchase.

Love the coffee at 211! The staff if always great!

It was so relaxing, clean and the barista was the sweetest cutest thing ever.

Tried their decaf coffee because they use a process without chemicals. It was really good. Sometimes you just want coffee even when you know it is too late! It is nice to buy their beans to grind at home for the perfect cup.

This is a wonderful coffee shop. It is located in the Bentonville AR public library. It has it’s own entrance or you can enter from the library. The coffee we had was over the top. Very very good. You can have it in a to go cup or an in house glass cup. They, also, have pastries. Sadly, we had already eaten breakfast. There are tables and chairs on the inside. Tables, chairs and benches on the outside on the porch. The porch has a roof over it. It is shaded by mature trees. Very clean. Very friendly. Don’t miss it if visiting Bentonville.

We went to visit the shop today and Mauricio welcomed us like we were rockstars. We had a couple of lattes, the black bean and cheese sandwich, and the turkey egg and cheese croissant, which were great. This cafe has great plans for the future and is a very recommended visit if you are interested in a little taste of the Guatemalan flavor.

The atmosphere of this little hole in the wall is wonderful. The art on the walls is beautiful and for sale! The drinks that me and my husband got were quite delicious. I will definitely return here! It's charming and warm.

Great Guatemalan coffee served by a passionate owner and his staff. Always smiling, Mauricio is a genuine individual who will elevate your day when you meet him. Did I mention great Guatemalan coffee brewed using many different methods?

Friendly staff and cozy setting. Some of the best coffee in NWA. The mixed berry smoothie is highly child approved and they even enjoyed a taste of my mocha.

Great establishment. Friendly people. Unique coffee. Ask the owner about his story, and the meaning behind the name 211. You'll be hooked for reasons other than unique blends of Guatemalan coffee. You can get YeYo's breakfast burritos served here.

211 has been a fabulous find for my wife and I. One of the best Latte's I've ever had, and I've personally become a big fan of the Chemex coffee.

It's quiet, generally not super crowded, good wifi and atmosphere, a perfect place to escape for a bit in Bentonville! Highly Recommended!

Excellent coffee, a solid set of regulars, and staff that knows your favorite orders. If Cheers! the bar was a coffee bar in Bentonville, this would be it.

Favorites: Americano, Katrina sunrise (espresso + orange juice; it's an oddly effective wake-up), cappuccino, coffee beans

If brewing at home, I like the beans at a 1g coffee to 14g water ratio in the French press. (I'm from Seattle. We take coffee Seriously :)

Best mocha in NWA! Perfect atmosphere for working remotely or hosting a book club. There are couches and tables to accommodate both. They also have tasty pastries and chorizo burritos.
They display art from local artists for sale.

Gotta love this place. Good coffee and great people too!

This is my favorite coffee house by far. I love the people and the beans they roast. I usually just get an aeropress coffee but today I tried a drink called a "little Italy " that Jonah came up with and it was amazing.

Friendly staff, very clean, wonderful outdoor seating available. Easy internet access plus an incredible library with activity events throughout the month. Thank you Bentonville citizens!

Amazing coffee, bright casual atmosphere steps away from the Bentonville square. Located behind the dog bakery, definitely a local spot. The owner is from Guatemala and knows coffee!

There's nice friendly people working there. They have a good selection of items and it looks like a very modernized coffee shop. I support small business! Let the word get out there.
