I ate here 4 times during my stay at The Best Western Inn. Twice for breakfast and twice for dinner. Breakfast had the standard offerings but I loved their biscuits to order anything else. I had the grilled chicken sandwich and added bacon and it was tasty. They offer a huge salad bar with soups too. But whatever you do, save room for the pie. It's the best!! read more

Myrtie Mae's - Possum Pie - American Near Me - Eureka Springs, Arkansas

First, the good. My son enjoyed 2 generous trips to the salad bar. Crispy fresh greens, tasty salad dressing, variety of options. Possum pie was a major yummy. Our waitress was sweet. Thumbs up to Gift Shop!!! The bad is hard for me as I have always enjoyed Myrtie Mae's. Perhaps I'll go again and get something grilled. My fish had more coating than fish and then deep fried. Lots of flies around which is likely due to how the door operates. Annoying just the same. Of course I'll go back! They have too many offerings for me to judge just one plate! read more

Myrtie Mae's is located inside the Best Western Inn of the Ozarks in Eureka Springs, AR. My daughters and I dined there for supper on July 23, 2025, then we ordered breakfast to go the following morning. Our order: 1 Jack Daniels & Coke = $6.00 2 Kids Juice = $3.98 2 Mac & Cheese = $13.98 (my daughter had two servings) 1 Kids Grilled Cheese = $5.79 1 Patty Melt = $9.99 1 Slice Possum Pie = $3.99 Service was on the slow side both times. The food is reminiscent of Cracker Barrel. The ambiance is similar too, although, Mae's has many old photos of historic Eureka Springs which I adored. We all shared a piece of possum pie which is a famous layered dessert of Arkansas. I'd never had it, but was dying to try it. Highly recommend. The sweet two little old ladies beside us asked about it... There is a small gift shop with local items on display such as jewelry, books, and several foods in jars. Not sure if I'm a raving fan just yet, but it's a good go-to restaurant if everything else is crowded. They do close a bit early, though.

My wife and I stayed at the Best Western so Myrtie Mae's was a convenient spot for breakfast and dinner. Breakfast is what you'd expect from a classic American diner. I had bacon eggs and hashbrowns with a pancake à la cart. It was good and the service was fast. We came back for dinner, mostly because we wanted some pie. While everything on the menu sounded good we only shared an appetizer of potato skins to save room for Opossum Pie. The pie was soo good. We also ended up getting a cinnamon roll to go, and we ate that in the morning before hitting the road. read more

While vacationing here we came to eat breakfast and my husband and I both ordered the steak and eggs with biscuits and gravy. The gravy had absolutely ZERO flavor, we even tried to add more pepper and salt to give it something, didn't work. The steak tasted like it had been marinated in salt, but it was at least cooked okay. My husband's scrambled eggs were runny. Then to top it off, there was a couple next to us who were getting upset because they had been sitting for 20-30 minutes and hadn't even been served drinks yet. When the waitress finally brings out their coffees she tells them, "Okay, it's time to perk up and be happy!" My husband and I almost died right then and there. The other couple was obviously very upset and it was really hard to look my husband in the face because neither of us could believe she just walked up to them and said that. read more

Been dining at this classic restaurant for many years. Recently returned to Eureka Springs for a quick visit; and after paying our respects to the awesome Crescent Hotel Myrtie's was a must. Things hadn't changed a bit in 6 years - thank God. Classic country cooking done right, bountiful salad bar, lots of good eatin! Was like coming home. Thanks, Mytie Mae's for staying true. We'll be regulars for years to come. read more

Great food and great service. Went there during the UGO conference and expected a long wait, but was seated and served almost immediately.

Exactly what we needed to start the day. Fresh coffee, great food, and a bright and friendly face. Lesley was delightful. She was handling several tables but took great care of all of us. Myrtie Mae's is one of our favorite places for breakfast. read more

Southern hospitality at its best! Great staff and great food, at a fair price. Perfect fried chicken, crispy on the outside, juicy inside! read more

Basic breakfast menu. The food was good. I ordered the Myrtie Mae's omelette with hash browns, and biscuits and gravy. The hash browns were a little overcooked for me but still not bad. The service was okay. Our waitress was trying to get everyone taken care but was going to fast and about spilled coffee on us. All in all I still recommend giving this place a try. They had a salad bar that was being set up for lunch, while we were eating, and it looked fantastic! read more

Food: limited selection for what is considered "healthy options" but what they have is fantastic. Service: FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC!!

Stopped at the restaurant when driving through Eureka Springs area. Was very clean. Comfortable atmosphere, not too loud, though I bet when it gets busy it's hoppin'. Got the turkey club, split onion rings and fries with hubby, and salad bar. Sandwich was exactly how I'd make it at home, with crispy bacon and Swiss. Beer battered onion rings were fabulous. Fries were crispy goodness. Nice little salad bar with good options. Service was excellent. Left totally full and wishing we lived closer. read more

This truly is a wonderful find in Euerka Springs! It is slightly hard to find as it is off the main rd and inside of the Best Western. But what a cute and cozy restaurant open to the public! They have a very nice, stocked, and clean salad and soup bar with lots of fresh veggies, fruit, muffins, dressings, and 2 hot soups. It is $10 for adults, $8 for kids, or add to an entree for around $3. My family loved the salad and soup! I got the liver and onions, which our server said was one of their most requested entrees, and it was delicious. My husband got their famous fried chicken, and it was perfectly fried and seasoned. Their mashed potatoes and gravy were homemade and delicious, too. We ended our meal with a slice of Arkansas Possum Pie, which was the best version I have ever had! It has pecans, cream cheese, and chocolate mousse and was $4 a slice. Our server, who I believe was named Arthur, was amazing. He was waiting on numerous tables, but he made time for everyone and never seemed rushed. We never waited for refills, and he cleared plates continuously. He was both polite and professional. Prices were very affordable, especially for the area. They even have a cute gift shop next to the restaurant. Bathrooms were downstairs, and you have to go down a very steep stairwell, so be advised. There were a lot of flies, which seems to be a big problem everywhere. I wish they had some discreet bug zappers by the door to prevent the flies on the salad bar. Overall, a wonderful casual restaurant for the whole family! We will be back soon! read more

Went for breakfast. Food was typical diner food. Nothing extraordinary. We were told biscuits and gravy very good. I liked the non-biscuity biscuit but gravy was not my fave. Little too think and not enough sausage. What I really liked were the little gifts everywhere and snacks. Bought a bunch to bring home for friends and fam. The staff was also really nice. There POS system seemed to slow things down, but we weren't in a rush. read more

This place has been amazing all weekend! We had a minor hostess MIA the first night... but this girl works non stop! I had chicken fried steak, it was amazing! Steak and eggs the next morning, it was amazing! Finally had my phone to take a picture and this was a fabulous omelette, hash browns, and biscuits and gravy! All are amazing! Place is clean, a little dated but interesting pictures dated around the 30's of Eureka Springs. Husband's new favorite place to eat now! Coffee was good too! We will definitely be back here every time we visit! read more

The food and service was average. We had breakfast. Nothing to write home about. Parking was a nightmare.

My sister n I stayed at your Best Western hotel in Eureka Springs for the past 3 days n upto this point the service was wonderful. Tuesday evening we had dinner at your restaurant, Myrtie Maes. We ordered our dinners with a baked potato. When our waitress (Joy)brought our dinner out mine was fine, but my sisters bake potatoe was plain n dry with nothing on it..I asked the waitress why my sisters baked potato had nothing on it. She responded because she didnt ask for anything on it. I said oh I didn't know we had to ask for what came on the potatoe, if anything. I asked for a roll with my dinner, which is very common and she responded we usually save those for senior citizens. I said so I can't order a roll. She didnt respond, she just wrote it down n walked away.. My sister and I drove all the way from Texas to visit Eureka Springs, it was an 9 hour drive. We had been site seeing all day and came back to our hotel and wanted to have a nice dinner. While eating my dinner I got choked on a piece of chicken fried steak and it took me about 10 minutes to get it to go down. She came to our table and started taking our plates without saying a word. She never acknowledged that I was choking. My sister said please do not take our plates we have to go boxes here, because we are taking our food with us, but my sister got choked. She did NOT even acknowledge that I was choking. She simply walked away. This type of treatment in a well known establishment or any establishment is unacceptable. However after choking I was feeling anxious n needed to leave. My sister paid our ticket and we left..After, I began to feel better I decided to make you all aware of how we had been treated today in your restaurant. June 10th, 2025 at approximately 445pm. I believe her name was Joy. This experience was very disappointing. read more

Good was great and price is reasonable!! We ended up eating a few meals here. Definitely recommend!

Visited eureka springs for the first time. Didn't feel like battling the crowds of the Main Street. Service was kinda slow. But once we got someone, she couldn't have been more accommodating!! I got the 2 piece fried chicken. When it was delivered, she said the cooks said it's the biggest chicken breast they've ever fried up, at 19.2oz! I said, well this is a challenge then! Accepted! Lol! Super flavorful, super juicy! I did finish it, but didn't have room for the wing or Fries. But I had a few fries. Outstanding. Boyfriend had the catfish. Not good. No flavor. And not fresh, definitely from frozen. Friend had the salad buffet (5 stars!!!). The onion rings (2 thumbs up), and the Texas fries (just ok). Will return for that fried chicken!!! read more

We walked in with low expectations. Seeing that the restaurant was inside of a hotel. We had to wait 25 minutes for a table. A little while but I understand it. We got seated and waited for an additional 15 minutes for our waiter to even acknowledge us. Thankfully he was amazing and really nice. I ordered the Myrties Eureka omelet with wheat toast. The omelet was excellent and so was the toast. If you are in a hurry I would not recommend this place. But if you are just trying to get out of the house and have a slow paced meal that is good then this is the place to go. read more
