When you're feeling presidential, dine at 42. Amazing experience and a delicious brunch in Arkansas at The Clinton Center. Before touring the William J. Clinton Library and Museum we enjoyed brunch. Our server was fantastic, he gave us strong recommendations for appetizers and meals. We had a lovely time with some incredible views of the Arkansas River and the Clinton Presidential Park Bridge. Restaurant had a dignified feel with down home favorites.

Diane and I experienced an enjoyable lunch here while visiting the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum. My toasted President's Club Sandwich on Honey Wheatberry Bread was juicy and delightful. Perfectly salted and peppered Hand-Cut French Fries were excellent. And Diane received superior plump and memorable Cornmeal Dusted Shrimp. Service was brisk and accommodating. The view of the Arkansas River and Bridge through a glass wall, and comfortable chairs, contributed to a pleasant casual ambiance. XXXX-1/2 overall!

Presidential Club + Sweet Potato Fries

What a great lunch spot! Quick service and great atmosphere! I enjoyed the presidential club with sweet potato fries! The Wasabi aioli is a must with these fries!! Highly recommend for a good weekday lunch outing!

It's Nice!! I went for brunch with a group. I ordered eggs Benedict, and my eg was over cook, but my friend's poached egg was cooked correct. Service was good. But the fellowship with my friends was excellent!!

Fire pits

They take reservations but you do not have to have them. It is located on ground floor of Clinton Center with views of river and footbridge. Service was a little slow but waitress was friendly. The shrimp and grits had a creole sauce on it and had plenty of shrimp. Menu is brunch oriented. Pleasant outside seating with fire pits for cooler weather

Chopped salad is unusual in that chicken is breaded, but I liked it!
Richard T.

Great lunch. The setting is unique, the service is excellent, and the food is top notch! Highly recommended!

Flying through, I had a layover in Little Rock, and what better to see than the Bill Clinton presidential library. They have this great restaurant overlooking the river and with both indoor and outdoor seating. I sat at the bar and tried some local drinks and food. I started with the Breakfast Fries, which was a huge plate and definitely something to share. It was really good southern food. Breakfast Fries: Crisp French Fries covered in Country Sausage Gravy topped with Crumbled Bacon and Melted Sharp Cheddar I also had the Breakfast Plate; all tasted great and the Old Fashions were excellent. Get your southern fix right here. Breakfast Plate: Eggs Your Way, Biscuit & Gravy, and Breakfast Potatoes, with your choice of Bacon or Sausage

This is sweet potato hash and the burger. It is good!

The food is soooooooooooooo good! The service is very good. The lighting is good and the building is cool look

Free Valet Parking. The food was delicious. I ordered shrimp and grits with a Belgian waffle and it was succulent. The service was good. The only thing is we got our appetizer and then a few minutes later we received our plates. So our food started getting a little cold. The ambiance is delightful and relaxing.

This is quite a nice, upscale restaurant, especially for being in a presidential library (Clinton Presidential Center). And probably one of the best views in Little Rock! I sat outside on the open, pleasant patio, but the indoor space had door to ceiling, wall to wall windows, so those needing air conditioning would also get a great view. I had the pimento and ham panini, though I considered the roasted veggie wrap (I think both would have been equally great). Also had fries, which were fine, but next time I would opt for a different side. Lots of light choices--salads, wraps, sandwiches. Nice little cocktail menu. I loved the clean, refreshing Arkansas mule! Great bite to eat while visiting the Clinton Presidential Center (reviewed separately).

Chocolate cake!

My food was excellent! The service was quick and the ambiance was nice too. The patio is a nice vibe, if it isn't too hot outside. Great views of the Arkansas River. You must make a reservation, so make sure you do so before showing up. It's inside the presidential library, so you can go early or stay late if you want to browse around. I had the crab cake salad and it was so good,I probably will order the same thing next time!

Had the Black N Blue steak salad and it was excellent. Can't go wrong. Service was prompt but the restaurant was not crowded.

I was picking up a book at the library and it's right next door, they advertised on the sign they have toiletries so I thought they might have toilet paper. I didn't see any so I asked. There was a woman filling a bag with ice cream and told the person behind the counter to get it from the back, the clerk was trying to ask her how much to charge, but she didn't respond and then she left. So the clerk comes back with one roll of toilet paper unwrapped like it was taken from their bathroom. I was like, ok, fine, thinking she might charge me .50¢ or $1. I also was buying a yerba mate drink. She rang it up and it was over $7, I asked how much the drink was she said $3.49, so you are charging me over $3 for a single roll of toilet paper, and she says yes. I said no, I will get toilet paper somewhere else, I am not paying you over $3 for a roll of toilet paper, that's insane. I gave her cash, she was still holding the money in her hand telling me I could get something else. I was so confused why she just didn't take that off, she had not put the money in the register, the transaction was not complete, she was still holding the money. I pointed at the money in her hand, and looked at her as if she was trying to make a simple situation hard. She kept repeating you can get something else, I've already rang it up. I wasn't about to argue with her in front of the small child sitting on the counter. So i said well can I get another drink? Still confused why she just didn't give me my money. So I just left with two yerba mate drinks, so strange. I went around the corner to another store and got 4 rolls of toilet paper in a package for $2.49. Seriously!

It was busy and I felt rushed ordering only by the customers though. The cashier was helpful with our choice of what to order and amiable. My husband and I love cold brew coffee so we both ordered cold brews and we had them with a splash of mocha and vanilla sweet cream. I wish we would have ordered a pastry for the road but we weren't hungry. I'm eyeballing the honey almond bostock Next time hungry or not we're getting some. They look delicious. The atmosphere was warm and cozy but as a person just driving through it appeared a tad cliquey and hipster! Maybe I'm wrong. I'm still going in to get our cold brews when we drive through again though Keep up the astounding work!

Ordered the vanilla iced latte with oatmeal, topo Chico and a turkey sandwich! I love a good vanilla latte iced w/ oatmeal and this was not it! Kinda disappointed bc it's such a popular place and was expecting it to be the best. Maybe it was the ratio of coffee to milk. It wasn't terrible but wasn't the best. It felt like it was missing something. The sandwich was amazing! It was flavorful. Would definitely try more of their breakfast items! Love that there is a water station and can self serve.
