    McDonald's Batesville, Arkansas terrible store management Earl Robinson.

    Another horrific customer service experience at this McDonald's location in Batesville, Arkansas. I was waiting to pick up my mobile order inside the restaurant. I asked for a small cup to get some water while I waited on my order. The girl working the front desk, rolled her eyes and huffed, and then turned towards the automated self-order machines hoping somebody would walk over towards her that she could help instead. Just ignored me. I politely asked again. May I please have a small cup for some water while I wait? She actually turned around got a small cup and very angrily gave it to me and said here! Very sarcastically. Once my breakfast meal was placed upfront, I asked for a packet of strawberry jam and two packets of pepper. The response? Another very angry sarcastic. You actually want strawberry jam and pepper?!? I replied yes please. She again, angrily gave me the items, inexplicably handing me grape jelly instead, rolled her eyes and huffed again. I told her that I really didn't appreciate her attitude and asked what was the matter. At that point, she started cussing so I turned and left. I have had many such experiences since the store hired a new manager. if you politely complain to him, you are the problem he wants removed. His name is Earl Robinson. I believe he moved here from Houston, Texas. His response whenever the store gets something wrong with your order is to be angry at you and make it very difficult and embarrassing and loud to have it fixed. I have complained to McDonald's corporation, asked them to have the local franchisee owner to call me. Zero response. The employees are acting rude. The manager is mean towards customers, service at this location is terrible. The store is usually dirty, the employees have taken over the stool top counter by the drink station, that customers need to use. Employees taking deliveries out to the parking lot routinely about run over you bump into you and give you weird looks like get out of their way when you're trying to just get in or out of the restaurant or past "there table where they hang out and snack and keep their drinks". The employees clogging up this area make it difficult to get your own drink or napkin. I have enjoyed McDonald's all my life and especially appreciated the consistent quality of the food and good service at any location you go to. Freddy's burgers is next-door, Wendy's is down the street, Burger King is also nearby. All of these locations have wonderful employees and customer service experiences. And frankly, the manager shown in the picture is not to blame, he is allowed, even encouraged to run the store this way by the regional franchise owner and the McDonald corporation. I encourage others in Batesville to reach out to the McDonald's corporation and see what can be done to bring our McDonald's location back up to the high-quality standards this community deserves.

    I ordered a bacon egg and cheese mcgriddle and this is what I got won't be going back

    A breakfast burrito that rides the rails straight into legend…read more Some meals feed you. Others announce themselves--plant a flag in your memory and refuse to leave. Jesse James Foods, a train-car restaurant tucked into Batesville, Arkansas, does the latter with the confidence of a place that knows exactly who it is and what it's doing. I arrived from Austin with the quiet skepticism of someone who's eaten well and often. I left recalibrated. The stage is already set the moment you step inside: a railcar theme reborn as a diner, humming with the kind of honest energy that only comes from food made by people who care. And at the center of it all is Jesse himself--part conductor, part craftsman, wholly in command of his kitchen. I ordered two takeout breakfast burritos (mom in hospital) that could not have been more different in temperament yet equally accomplished in execution: the Ghost Aioli Ham Breakfast Burrito and the Sausage Breakfast Burrito. Let's talk about the ghost pepper first--because Jesse did. Knowing my Texas background and my respect (and caution) for ghost pepper heat, he paused. He explained. He offered a taste, not as a dare, but as an assurance. That confidence was earned. The ghost aioli, when paired with the ham, is a masterclass in restraint. The heat is real--but it's civilized. The richness of the ham tempers the ghost pepper's fire into something warm, aromatic, and deeply satisfying rather than aggressive. It doesn't shout; it hums. Of the two burritos, it was the clear favorite--layered, bold, and balanced in a way that tells you this wasn't an accident. This was thought through. The sausage burrito, meanwhile, is comfort done right. Savory, grounded, and generous without being heavy. It's the kind of breakfast that steadies you for the day ahead. And then there's the detail that separates good from great: a proper crispy hash brown aside the burrito. Not limp. Not steamed into submission. Crispy. Structural. Intentional. It adds texture, contrast, and proof that Jesse understands breakfast at a fundamental level. Service matters, and here it shines. Jesse and his staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely proud of what they're serving--because they should be. There's no pretense here, just hospitality backed by skill. Jesse James Foods isn't just a stop. It's a destination. If you're anywhere near Batesville, you owe it to yourself to climb aboard. This is a must-try--and a reminder that some of the best food in America isn't found in big cities, but in railcars run by people who care enough to get every detail right. - M. Brown

    This place is perfect for drinks and bar food that is restaurant quality (not your standard grill)…read more My kids really like the food here, but the atmosphere can be overstimulating for some of us. Get the thin and crispy fries!!! They're worth the wait. My first time here I ordered one of their loaded fry entrees and it was okay, but when I returned for a second shot I had a spicy grilled chicken sandwich that was very good and generously portioned. The drink menu looks promising, unfortunately I haven't made it to this restaurant without kids yet so I haven't tried anything from the bar.

    The Bourbon Blitz Smashburger at Twisted Spud (Batesville)…read more Some burgers try to impress you. This one hits you square in the chest and then politely asks if you'd like fries with that. Twisted Spud's Bourbon Blitz Smashburger is what happens when a kitchen understands restraint and swagger at the same time. Let's start with the build. The double smash patties are pressed thin enough to get those deep, lacy, beef-forward edges--the kind that crackle when you bite in. That's not accidental. That's someone back there paying attention. The beef flavor leads, not the toppings, which is the first sign you're dealing with a serious burger. Then comes the pepper jack, melted just enough to coat the meat without hijacking it. You get heat, but it's controlled--no gimmicks, no cheap spice tricks. The bourbon glaze is where things turn special. Sweet, smoky, and just sticky enough to linger without drowning the bite. It's not dessert-sweet; it's confidence-sweet. The kind that knows exactly when to stop talking. Chipotle mayo adds a quiet, creamy warmth underneath everything--less "hey look at me" and more "you'd miss me if I weren't here." And those hand-breaded onion tanglers? Absolute chaos in the best way. Crunchy, savory, slightly wild--textural contrast that keeps every bite interesting all the way through. All of it comes together on a soft potato bun that actually understands its role: hold, support, and get out of the way. Paired with fries, this plate doesn't feel like bar food--it feels intentional. Thought through. Respected. Now let's talk about the vibe. The staff at Twisted Spud are exactly what you want in a place serving food like this: friendly without hovering, proud without being pushy, and clearly happy you're there. Service is quick, warm, and genuinely welcoming--the kind that makes you want to come back even before the check hits the table. Add to that multiple screens to watch some sports and have a drink with friends Bottom line: This isn't a "pretty good for a small town" burger. This is a flat-out good burger, period. If you're in Batesville and you skip Twisted Spud, that's on you. If you order the Bourbon Blitz and don't close your eyes on the first bite--check your pulse.
