They are unconcerned with the customer, or customer input unless you compliment them. (Don't take my word for it, just visit Facebook). If you want a menu item without mayo, or perhaps no corn or onion, too bad. You either have to lie and say you have an allergy or order something else that you might not want. And why can you not get an item made to your preference? Good question. The answers that have been given range from "We have a small kitchen" to "If we modify everyone's food, the wait times will be an hour". The latter may be true because you'll wait 30 minutes or more anyhow. And what happens if you insist you would like an item made to your liking with only a minimum of modifications? You'll get lambasted on Facebook and told that "maybe restaurant dining isn't for you". As long as they have traffic on Hwy 65 they'll get a lot of one time, last time customers. It appears they've already crapped on the locals pretty hard as the owner is repeatedly begging for business when tourist traffic is slow. These are just my opinions, and I encourage you to draw your own conclusions. I've not just been one time, I've been several times in the last year and have tried to give this place a shot, but I just can't anymore. This has nothing to do with the owner's political beliefs, although she claims that's a reason people don't like her. She's pretty unlikable no matter who she may vote for. That said, you do get a sense of how she might vote just based on the attitude and nastiness. There is a bright spot though. There's a shorter lady server who smiles all the time and is pleasant to deal with. I feel like the others have been warned to secure the happiness.

    There is a segment in the restaurant community that does well by making the simple things you can…read moremake at home. There is not only nothing wrong with that, it is sometimes exactly what you need. Exotic flavor combinations and ingredients that aren't in your regular shopping cart is not what you want. A simple sandwich, BLT for her, Club for me, with crinkle cut fries gets the job done sometimes. It satisfies that 5th grader that lurks inside of all of us no matter how old we are. I also think the older we get, the more satisfied we are with safe, neutral flavors. A pinch of salt, the indication of a whisper of pepper, a patina of mayo. We were in town for my wife to visit a quilting cornerstone spot for her. We are retired now, and closer than we had been over in MD, so we hopped in the car and made a 3 day odessy, good time had by all. Our visit got off to a little of a rough start, [at the time an unexplained delay after tea delivery - the other staff could have taken the initiative of coming to take our order, but I don't know the internal dynamics here] however the young lady bounced back well, and there are no complaints on actual service or the food. I suspect it is quite popular with the locals, I see a lot of lofty praise in the reviews, and our hotel clerk recommended we try it.

    I'm so disappointed with Whistle Stop. After reading some very positive reviews I met some friends…read morefor an early evening dinner. First what was done right... We ordered the green tomatoes to share and they were yummy. Probably the best I ever had. My friends were both satisfied with their meal, one ordered a salad, and the other one had a chicken sandwich. Unfortunately, for me, I ordered a hamburger with fried okra. The okra was pretty good, however the hamburger was absolutely inedible. Dry and flavorless! I took one bite and couldn't believe how bad it was! Worst of all, when I complained the girl said "Oh, sorry about that." and walked away. I didn't want to make a scene, since I was with new friends. Needless to say, I will not be going back. There are other options in Batesville.

The interior is charming, clean, and decorated with a friendly, welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger and enjoy your meal. The menu has a fantastic variety of options, and everything I tried was delicious. My sandwich was perfectly made, fresh, and flavorful, and the baked goods were incredible--soft, perfectly sweet, and clearly made with care. The coffee was rich and hot, and it complemented my meal perfectly. It's obvious that they use high-quality ingredients and take pride in everything they serve. The staff went above and beyond to make my experience pleasant. They were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely friendly. My order was ready quickly, and they even offered helpful suggestions when I asked for recommendations. What really sets Daisy's apart is the attention to detail and the care put into every part of the experience. From the presentation of the food to the friendly service, every aspect felt thoughtful and welcoming. I left feeling completely satisfied and impressed. I would highly recommend Daisy's Lunchbox Cafe and Bakery to anyone looking for a delicious meal, fresh baked treats, and a truly welcoming cafe experience. I will definitely be coming back again and ag

They sell out of baked goods fast so get there early at 11am. The poppy seed chicken was sadly disappointing as I am not at all exaggerating when I say there were exactly two small cubes of chicken in what was actually rice casserole. The rice wasn't bad tasting but just entirely mislabeled. Single cinnamon rolls were sold out so I got a half dozen for around 8 bucks. They were soft and tasty and not too sweet without being dry at all. The chocolate chip cookie earned this review the stars it has. It was soft and smelled of made from scratch ingredients- delicious flour and butter flavors with good chocolate chipping and soft but not falling apart texture. Very good cookie right here! Sadly the "Death by Chocolate" cupcake was actually a dry chocolate muffin with a topping of hard yet flavorful chocolate frosting with darker chocolate glaze and chocolate chips. The frosting came off the muffin in one hard chunk and was tasty but the dry muffin was not enjoyable. The monster cookie was like the CC cookie- homemade, soft, so flavorful, and all around fantastically done. The honey pecan chicken sandwich came on a really delicious soft sweet roll. It came with chips and choice of side. The chicken salad did have some small pieces of pecan but there was no honey flavor. It tasted like the dill sprinkled throughout which was still tasty.

One of our crew got a sandwich, in the case but made from scratch, of course. I may have eaten some before I thought to take a photo. Bacon, arugula and cheese on a toasted bun, also made from scratch. If you are in Searcy, they are easy to find.

    Impeccable service, food and coffee was amazing, and I loved the vibe of this coffeehouse!…read more I ordered a hot vienna coffee, which is a vanilla and cinnamon coffee served hot with frothed milk. It was incredible and had a beautiful design with the frothed milk. My boyfriend got a hot woodsman, which is a macadamia nut, maple syrup, and cinnamon coffee served hot with frothed milk as well. It was also very good the leading flavor was macadamia nut. We also got a cheesecake slice with chocolate and caramel syrup on top which was also very good but a little frozen, definitely a none bake cheesecake. There is a selection of board games and card games available to play indoors as well as a ping-pong table outside. And tons of seating options. The vibes in this coffee shop were truly immaculate. If you enjoy local art, there are a lot of beautiful painting throughout the Cafe that can be purchased as well if one catches your eye. It is a little on the pricey side but well worth it for the atmosphere and quality of the food and coffee. Pro tip, wait for your order at the counter, they can be a little quiet when they call out the names of the orders after making them.
