We came to Wood's Riverbend Restaurant for lunch. The place has a great view of the Spring River. It also has plenty of seating indoor or outdoor. The lunch menu has various options. We enjoyed the meal and Sabrina S. was very attentive. She asked throughout our meal if there was anything we needed. Kudos to her and the staff. The drawback is the parking can be a challenge. There is not a lot of room on the lot so street parking is the alternative. Enjoy! :) read more

Wood's Riverbend Restaurant - Pork chops, pinto beans, grilled veggies, fried okra and a corn bread muffin - American Near Me - Mammoth Spring, Arkansas

Great catfish plate! Burger was also flavorful and moist, fresh ingredients. Super friendly staff and they got us in and out in less than an hour at lunch on a Saturday. Friendly folks here in north Arkansas!! We had a great time here. Ever see a river that bubbles right out of the ground!?? After you eat, go across the road and check out the amazing Mammoth Spring! It's beautiful and very interesting. 9M gallons an hour come from that little spring. read more

From texas! literally ordered a Large salad , paid $12 and received a small portion salad. and a small town is crazy. will never come here again . i'd rather take my buisness to a restaurant that you get what you pay for instead of a buisness that is milking money and serving kids portions read more

I ordered Asian stir fry and got soggy Brussel sprouts . this place is disappointing . It also smelt like a dog house!!!

Food is good home cooking with an outstanding view. We're here at least once a week and everything we've tried is delicious. Service is friendly too. read more

Each time we go to Arkansas we eat here. Great atmosphere, great service and friendly and welcoming staff.!

The food slowly declines year by year as the prices continue to increase. If country cottage is closed we used to go here, but not anymore.

This place wasn't bad. The food and service was good, but not great. The view looked great, but the waitress didn't ask if we wanted to sit outside. Maybe the tables out there were full? Anyway, I really wanted breakfast, but we'd gotten there during the only time they don't serve it (Sundays 11 - 2). I ordered the Open Faced Hot Beef and hubby had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. It was good. I think breakfast would'a been better. P.S. Dry county. read more

Good food fair prices nice outside dining area that looks towards the spring river...........

stopped here on the way to our MO destination to meet some friends for breakfast. We were able to choose our own table; the waitress was nice & friendly and the view is spectacular! I ordered the biscuits & gravy, they were a little firm and the gravy tasted like canned gravy. Another of our party ordered eggs over easy and crispy hash browns; the eggs were barley done and the hash browns had crossed the crispy line into the burned section. Definitely a little disappointed here read more

The view of the river is 10 stars... the food is just OK. Just my opinion, but be known for something. Steaks, Great burger, awesome fried catfish, etc etc! All your food is good, don't get me wrong, but none of it is food network worthy and I think you could be that easy. read more

Wood River bend Mammoth Ark. nice little restaurant on the White River near the Springs. Slow service grill isn't keeping up so right now some items are t available I.e hash browns at breakfast. Nice atmosphere, nice waitress, coffee slow to come , but the river is peaceful! Serve breakfast until 11am on Sunday. Couple came in at 10:40 waitress came by and said they cancelled Breakdast not a good way to run a restaurant for sure and they could be sitting on a gold mine read more

We just had a fabulous lunch and even better service on our way home to KC. Lovely views and the menu was wonderful! Even had a great kids menu. We will definitely be back! read more

Some of the best biscuits and gravy. Love the outside patio area. Amazing view of the Spring River. Good place for friends and family to enjoy a meal. read more

Food was cold. Not busy at the time. Fish plate was just okay.

Food was ok, but I had to take out a loan because the prices were so out touch. I know there's inflation but these people are taking advantage of the situation. The lunch special may be your only hope. read more

We've been here twice this trip. We came back through on the way home specifically for their vegetable soup. It's awesome. Homemade and LOADED with veggies and flavor. My fiancé got their signature burger once and bbq stuffed potato. He says both were awesome. read more

We were pretty disappointed by the meal here. The place has a classy look and provides a great overlook of the river from the porch. This is pretty much the only reason for the two stars. We had the chicken and dumpling lunch special. It was way too salty and I'm fairly sure the dumplings were just cut up canned biscuits. We also had the shrimp meal. This ran about $15. It came with plenty of shrimp but they were the kind that you get frozen at the grocery store. Mostly breading and soaked in grease. The staff is friendly enough though it seems forced at times. Don't think I'll be back again. read more

Wood's Riverbend Restaurant - Beautiful view!! - American Near Me - Mammoth Spring, Arkansas

Several people have already commented on the view of the spring, and it is truly stunning! For the food, Wood's had the best restaurant fried catfish and hush puppies I have ever had. The cornbread was seasoned well, and nothing was greasy. The fish was still flaky, and the hush puppies were tender with just the right amount of green onion. Even the homemade coconut creme pie was delicious. Our server also got bonus points for being incredibly friendly and attentive. A great place for a simple down-home kind of meal! read more

We were meeting at this place for lunch, the halfway point for friends in Missouri and us in Arkansas. We got there early and the wait staff was gracious in knowing we were going to be there up to half an hour or 45 minutes. They never seemed annoyed by that. We left the server a really good tip to compensate for any loss she might've experienced. Food was good, customer service was great, view was wonderful. read more

Stopped here after a hike at Grand Gulf State Park and sat out on the deck for lunch. I had the Philly Cheese steak which was delicious. It was filled with hearty meat with onion and peppers served on one of the freshest rolls. The fries were crispy and very tasty. My friend had the grilled chicken sandwich with grilled vegetables which she said were both delicious. There wasn't a bit of food left on either of our plates. The only complaint was the flies out on the deck. Service was good and waitress was attentive. Prices were reasonable and the view was spectacular. read more

Wood's Riverbend Restaurant - View from our table - American Near Me - Mammoth Spring, Arkansas

Great food and awesome view. The river right below you along with ground hogs that play the whole time you eat. Awesome experience if you sit outside. Just don't get causing in the rain like we did read more

Looks cool on the outside and can offer good outdoor experince, however the food is almost always dry or overcooked to the point you think you are eating a fossil. Another thing is the poor service. I realize that it is usally busy but that should not warrant a rude waitress, they always shove the food and drinks on you. Half the time you order something,you have to wait 15 mins for the waiter to take service then another 25 for the actual food. Then for a good 10 mins it just sits on the window ready to be served as the waiters ignore it. This could be a great hangout but with a high price and horrible service it just doesnt work. Its a shame as its basically the only local food place to eat out in mammoth. read more

Situated on the banks of the Spring river, and just at the Arkansas/Missouri state line, this is a picturesque and quaint eatery. The parking is a bit of a challenge, but if you're handicapped, you've got lots of room, as all the spaces up by the front of the place are available to handicapped vehicles. Everything else is not marked and pretty much come as you please. Inside, there are LOTS of places to sit. There's even a sweeping porch out back that over looks the banks of the river and the local wild life (Animal & human alike) Service was fine. Mom got the special of the day, Chicken fried steak w/baked potato and a salad. And I got their New York Strip, with Salad and fries. The food was cooked well and quite tasty, The portions were large, but the salad.. *chuckles* was from a bag and pretty limp. The oddest thing I can mention about this place is that -all- the condiments, except Steak sauce & ketchup came in individual serving sizes: the Lemon Juice, the Sour cream the dressings.. All of it. Just found that as Odd. read more

I had the Philly Steak sandwich and it was delicious! I enjoyed the food and the service was great! Ann was our server and she did a great job catering to us and filled up our drinks before it was empty. And as the other reviewers said, the scenery was nice. Got to see a beaver! But yea I'd reccommend this place for good food and environment. read more

Wood's Riverbend Restaurant - American Near Me - Mammoth Spring, Arkansas

Great food and service. The view is spectacular , atmosphere is very pleasant. I stop here most every time I'm passing through. The Wood family would give you the shirt off their back!!! They are a great family and you can see it in their business. Keep up the good work ya'll! read more

The wait for a outside seat was so long and the same was said for inside seating. So, it's rather difficult to eat at a place with that kind of service especially during the pandemic and when we as people have to wear masks to maintain social distancing. read more

5 star view! Really liked this gorgeous view for a great lunch break on our drive. I'd read the reviews on the food and didn't expect much but was pleased that it was good. Nothing fantastic, but definitely fine still. My husband and I both enjoyed BBQ pork sandwiches and my 5-year-old was delighted with her French toast. Service was pleasant as well. Overall, we went for the views and it was all that we hoped for including a beautiful tree in full color still on December 1st. At 50 degrees it was too chilly to eat outside but I'd love to go back in warmer weather. Either way, we'll definitely go back if/when we are nearby again. PARENTS: this is a GREAT place for kids. There's a kids menu as well as grilled cheese and a full breakfast menu any time. Also, there's not just a diaper changed in the ladies room, but it's mounted about 6-8" higher than others. This may not seem worth mentioning, but if you're wrestling a 25 pound sack of potatoes like I've got, it's a very noticeable and welcome break for your aching back!!! Staff was even very pleasant and helpful when my baby finally achieved reaching one of our plates for the first time and flipped BBQ, fries, beans, and slaw around the floor around us in one victoriously quick swoop. It's a humbling experience and the staff was unfazed as they swept up around me and my apologies. Sorry and thank you! read more

If your in the Mammoth Spring area, check this place out. The out door seating is on a deck overlooking the river. It is very pleasant. The waitresses are super friendly and very attentive. The food is great! It is right across the street from the state park, so you can make a full outing of it. read more

We were just passing through and looking for a place to have lunch, other than fast food. This place was great! We both had the barbecue and it was delicious. I had the barbecue baked potato with spicy sauce and white rotel cheese dip. Can't go wrong there! My husband had the barbecue nachos and demolished them. Great place for a quick lunch or dinner. Bonus: The service was top notch! And great view of the river. read more

The food was good home cooking. Nice variety for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The apple pie was yummy with really good crust, which is basically my favorite part. Pretty place with a great deck overlooking the river. The only reason why I didn't rate this place higher was because of the service. I have no idea why, but not once was the staff welcoming; they just seemed like we were keeping them from doing something else. Never came to check on us-dropped the check while serving the meal, and gave barely one word answers. I had to call her over to ask for a piece of warm apple pie. It came out ice cold-since I didn't want to put her out anymore than we had by ordering lunch from her I didn't say anything. I felt pretty uncomfortable throughout the meal. We had made it a point to stop here on our trip too. read more

This restaurant is along the banks of the Spring River and across the highway from the state park visitor's center. It looked like a very appealing place to have lunch, so I stopped in. I only ordered a hamburger ($3.99), with bacon added, fries ($1.99), and iced tea ($1.69). The burger was very tasty with fresh toppings. There were just a small hand full of fries for my $1.99 extra. The big surprise was the $2.09 extra charge for two tiny pieces of over-cooked brittle and burnt bacon that was added to the burger. With tip, it was almost $13.00 for what should have been about a $7.00 meal. I felt totally ripped off on the charge for the bacon. BEWARE of this huge overcharge. Service was fine. Not much parking space. Doubt I'll ever go back. read more

Food was mediocre. Service was not the greatest. Waitresses rolled their eyes at us. They were a little too close for comfort and they yelled when they talked. The wait staff also was arguing in the kitchen. Would not recommend dining here. read more

used to be a nice place with good food, last 2 times I ate there it was like nasty truckstop food. won't go there anymore.
