Tucked beneath Bentonville's historic Massey building, Lady Slipper is Bentonville's hidden gem. Our intimate basement lounge welcomes you with rare art—including a stunning 10-foot Kehinde Wiley original—and Executive Chef Arturo Solis' globally-inspired cuisine that draws from Spanish, French, Italian, and Latin American traditions. From hand-rolled pasta to inventive cocktails, every plate and pour invites you to settle in and savor. We'd love to see you soon.

    i loveeee this place, especially austin and kaleb!! they’re the best bartenders ever and were so kind and willing to help me navigate the menu. however, i was extremely disappointed when i heard the new hours. i arrived at 10pm on a saturday night and was extremely disappointed when i heard last call was shortly after i arrived. the basement section was even closing! for such incredible drinks and service, i wish it was open longer so that people had an opportunity to enjoy the space and community. hopefully this changes soon, especially since it’s such a nice indoor space for the cold weather.

    New owners have successfully turned this into a place that is boring. Closes at 11, can only get drinks if seated. The strategy is to turn away customers?

    I quite literally love everything about Lady Slipper. I’ve been to a lot of restaurants and bars in NWA, and Lady Slipper hands down has the best food, drinks, and service. It’s also such a pretty atmosphere. The menu is small, but everything on it is AMAZING. I’ve also tried a variety of drinks there and truly liked them all. Everyone who works there is so helpful and friendly. We visited Lady Slipper last night, and the service couldn’t have been better. This has quickly become my favorite place in NWA, you have to try it!!

    Great little bar with a cozy vibe, but what truly made the experience exceptional was our server, Emily. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. She turned a solid 4-star visit into a 5-star one. Highly recommend!

    Not a fair rating. Didn't eat went for santa con so crazy busy but, after an 18% tip $50 for 2 half drinks in a plastic cup come on. And both were not good. All the other bars were fabulous even fir Santa con drinks. Had been looking forward to finally trying this place out. Disappointed...
