The Busy Bean Coffee-Walnut Ridge — Restaurant in Walnut Ridge

My coffee has only been right at a rate of 1/10 times! I request a simple coffee: Americano on ice with a little sweet cream. Shadrach's in Jonesboro nails it at a rate of 10/10, so I know it's a simple cup of Joe. I have continued to stop in as a matter of convenience (I live in Walnut Ridge) and to support local business. However, I have been shorted twice now on my loyalty rewards. A few days ago I had asked how many points I needed for my bonus cup, and I was told one. The next day I came in and purchased a coffee (my one point), so I came in today knowing that I had enough points for a free coffee and requested to use my points for the purchase.

Would recommend!

4 stars due to one of the orders being the wrong size and and order without whipped cream came out with the whipped cream. Atmosphere is also 4 star due to the lack of decoration...missed opportunity for the holiday season to decorate the shop, I think! But overall was very pleasant. Would stop by again when I visit the...

This used to be my go to coffee (lattes) every morning for the last going on 3 years. The ladies in the morning were almost always on time baring bad weather. The last roughly month the service has turned horrible. Not sure if it is the same lady every morning, but she shows up in the parking right at 0600 when they are supposed to open and it takes 10 plus minutes to get my order which hasn't changed ( 2 lattes) since I started coming. I am now going to the other coffee place down the road to save time. I drive by each morning tonsee if they one of the original ladies are back, but the lot 5 minutes before they are supposed to be open is...
