Bike Rack Brewing Co.

Probably the busiest spot in the 8th Street Market this evening, just about every table outside had folks enjoying a beer and enjoying the weather. I was able to order a tasty adult beverage and sit inside for a half hour or so as I was still early to meet up with my friend. Comfy space with a friendly family sort of vibe, there were some kids running about and everyone seemed to be having a good time. As did I!

Stopped in for a quick drink, tried the strawberry lemonade beer and it was very unique and tasty light beer, I would love to try more of their stuff. Atmosphere was chill and they had a fun trivia game you could join online plus a good selection of board games.

Cool spot to hang out with friends and family. Good layout of both indoor and outdoor space. Food trucks offering a mix of cuisines. The help was a little..inattentive, but it was later in the night..I don't fault them. Beers were decent, plenty to choose from. 4 outta 5 for me.

Love it! Really chill spot! Their drinks were good too! Dog-friendly. Definitely recommend this place!

I was very impressed with Bike Rack Brewing last night. The entire 8th Street Market was packed on a Friday night, but there was plenty of parking in the new garage. We tried 4 different beers and liked them all. Bike Rack was slam packed, but they were well staffed, and I never waited more than 2 minutes to get a beer. I was seriously impressed by this! It was a perfect evening with good friends, great beer, and nice live music. Can't wait to return.

We had a great visit to Bile Rack Brewing while in NWA! The beer was great, they are dog-friendly, and they had lots of outdoor seating. They also had a good selection of food trucks available outside the brewery. We had a flight, and enjoyed getting to try a selection of the beers available. We would definitely return to Bike Rack, and would recommend it to anyone in the Bentonville area!

We stopped in on a very slow Sunday evening, there were no signs about seating yourself or where to order. All of the food trucks were closed so we went inside and sat at a table. After waiting ten minutes for a server and watching the bartender literally just sitting behind the bar watching tv (we were one of 3 total pairs of people in the place) I got up to ask the bartender if we are supposed to order at the bar. To which she said yes. She was nice but definitely saw us and didn’t feel the need to take a break from watching tv to let us know there weren’t any servers and we needed to go over to the bar to order (I had kids with me that aren’t allowed at the bar). This really set a poor tone for the evening. The food that was available seemed to be microwaved. The wings were DRENCHED in salt and inedible. $50 later we left having ate 1/3 of the food, and none of the $10 glass of a $4.99 bottle of HOT wine. I get that it was a Sunday evening but you’re better off just closing than ruining your brand with poor service and TERRIBLE food.

Awesome place to hangout with friends and family. They have everything for all ages, we went with our kid. We ordered food for our kid and for ourself from the trucks and it taste good. Our kid enjoyed playing in play area and also he ride bike a lot. They do have a dog park where dogs can play and owner can sit and have food/drink Overall a good place to hangout with friends and family

Great atmosphere and great beer Options of food trucks but can bring your own food to enjoy the spacious outside area

Bike Rack Brewery exceeded expectations, offering a stellar experience from start to finish. The beer selection was a true highlight, boasting diversity that catered to all tastes. As a stout enthusiast, I was thrilled to discover that their stouts were nothing short of awesome - a rich, flavorful treat for the taste buds. The friendly bartender added an extra layer of enjoyment to our visit, going above and beyond by recommending a non-stout option that turned out to be a delightful surprise. It's a testament to their expertise and willingness to explore diverse tastes. The environment at Bike Rack Brewery struck a perfect balance - calm and cozy, creating an ideal setting for sipping and savoring. Whether you're a solo beer explorer or part of a lively group, the ambiance caters to all. In summary, Bike Rack Brewery left an indelible mark, and I'm already planning my return. If you're seeking a place with a diverse beer selection, awesome stouts, friendly service, and a calming atmosphere, look no further - this brewery has it all. Cheers to future visits!

Loved this place! We had a big day at Crystal Bridges and sort of magically just ended up here on the sun-drenched patio in 80 degree weather, during happy hour, and on St. Patrick's no less. Hard to beat that. The area around is definitely looks like it's been developed very recently, but also includes a lot of things to like. There are outdoor food trucks and an indoor food hall, and friendly folks all around. While the brewery was filling up late in the afternoon, it's a big space so it never felt too cramped. The staff was hustling and slinging tasty beers at an insanely low price point.. I want to say happy hour prices were $2.50-$3.00 per draft? We lingered here for a while and the vibes were good. The food truck experience wasn't the best, but that's a separate deal. This spot is very Bentonville, and glad we made it over here.

We stopped here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and were thrilled with the location. There is plenty of parking. There were 4 food trucks parked there but not serving, likely because it was the middle of the afternoon. The sides/doors of the brewery were open which created a nice open and inviting atmosphere. There were lots of seating options and we enjoyed our flight outside. The bartender was helpful and accommodating on our flight request and all of the beer that we tried was great!

Amazing atmosphere. Nice beer selection. Lots of food options at the brewery garden seating area. Free electric charging at the brewery.

Cute little place! Tucked away in a newly developed area. I don't live in the area (live out of state, actually) and in the area for my boyfriend's family visit. If I was local, this could be a nice little hang out when the food trucks are open. No food trucks were open when I was there, but OK with that because we weren't looking for food, just to kill some time. BIG KUDOS they had a coffee beer (stout?)!!! I'm not an avid beer drinker, more of a craft cocktail person, but I have developed an interest in coffee beers (you don't get them where I live). Try it!! AANNDD they have mini 5 oz pours - perfect for me since I sip on beer like I sip on wine. Always love a place that considers us timid beer drinkers :-)

After leaving The Momentary, I walked the short path over to the 8th Street Market and found Bike Rack Brewing. It appears to be a satellite location of their main facility closer to downtown Bentonville. Bike Rack is a prefect name for an area brewery, I have never seen a town filled with as many biking enthusiasts than I have here. I love Farmhouse Ales, but I'm hit and miss on sours so I asked for a taste of the Grapefruit Farmhouse Ale. After just a sip, I was all in for a $6 16 oz. draught. Nice! Limited seating indoors, due to Covid restrictions but lots of space outside.

Nice selection of IPA beers. Did a flight and it was hard to decide which one to get a full pour. Great way to end the work week.

Bike Rack is one of my favorite places to be in Bentonville during the summer! It has a large outdoor area with lawn games and often there is live music on the patio. It's a great place to go out with friends after work or on the weekend for drinks and hanging out!

Perfect place to stop after a day of biking. Great location and its close to food court. Go grab food here and bring it back or they also have food trucks. Their beer was decent. I got their stout and lager. We were in town two nights and came both nights! I enjoy drinking local and this place hit the spot! Their logo is pretty cool too. I like their merchandise and ended up buying a hat. I'll be back on My next bike trip!

Had a little time to kill in Bentonville, so we went over to the 8th Street Market, which is a really cool place with a bunch of different food & drink & retail spots plus a ton of outdoor space. A lot of the places were closed (it was a Monday) but the beer was flowing and we got lucky showing up during Happy Hour. Three of their flagship beers were like $3 a pint. I'll take that all day, every day. Started with a refreshing radler and finished with their stout. Wife had their peach hefe and a grapefruit ale of sorts (can't remember specific style). Everything was solid, easy to drink, and their patio seating was rad. Lots of dogs and kids running around. I'm sure this is a really popular spot for locals--could definitely see myself frequenting on the regular. Cheers!

I love breweries, especially in small towns. But this one missed the mark in a couple of ways. The samples were offered in 5oz pours, but there wasn't a flat flight price, making a small flight $8-10 I can deal with that, but what I can't deal with is unfriendly bartenders. I'm not asking for a red carpet, but a smile and a recommendation are always appreciated. Tried their basic brews (blonde, amber, pale, rye ipa), but they all fell short. Went with their double IPA which finally had just enough flavor and bite to it. I'd give this place another try, but would hope to find a friendlier face behind the bar and beers with a little more umph to them.

The location and setting alone deserves 5 stars! The beer has always been refreshing as well and the staff has been attentive.

Great place to wait for a table! Ordered the cider beer Kent and Mark ordered the Urban Trail beer. I'm a happy camper.

What a great place to grab a cold brew and enjoy the downtown Bentonville scene! Snickerdoodle cookies FTW! And might I also add, this establishment is dog friendly. YOU WIN MY HEART BIKE RACK BREWING! :)

I had a good experience while on a road trip through the area. When the weather is nice, they will open up their garage door type windows; allowing the breeze to roll in. The staff was helpful and they typically have some food trucks parked outside. If the food trucks aren't there, just around the corner are a few tasty eateries. After a couple of good draft beers from Bike Rack, I went over to the trendy Mexican restaurant that was just a stone's throw away. Overall, the beer was pretty good as was the atmosphere. It's worth stopping in, for sure.

This is located in the 8th street market area. It has a very cute setting with indoor and outdoor seating. I was surprised by the music playing -they had a very good playlist!!! The menu is on the board and there are three prices $2 or $2.50 for the tasting size and then up to a full glass. I'm not a beer drinker and the two I preferred were the Blueberry and Hibiscus which were ciders. There are also board games available to play-we tried the FML game which was hilarious. The outdoor seating also had a ping pong table nearby and some other games games you could play with a group.

Hard as hell to find with the construction, but worth it once you get there. We saw a local comedy show here the other night. This would also be a great place to sit out on the patio and enjoy a few cold ones, while listening to some music.

Very nice beer garden-deck out front but it's pretty small (inside and out). If you are behind people who are ordering flights, it can be a bit slow. I liked the vibe. There were lots of bikers (bicycle bikers) stopping by for a pint. Make sure you stop by the pub next door at Pedaler's Pub (which has an awesome back patio area. (There's also The Forge across the street and the Foxhole Pub down just a ways....great area for brews.)

Have visited several times and always had good service. Beer is cold and when the weather is good all of the doors are open. No food but food trucks are usually parked in the parking lot. Not going to recommend a beer as I enjoy trying different ones and ones I like might not be your taste buds favorite. Definitely take your friends and try it out.

Great stop in 8th Street Market to grab a glass and enjoy a snack from the south market. Their sitting area was nicely spaced out and clean. The decor is industrial modern, with garage doors lining the east side. I love their Slaughterpen IPA. I enjoyed one today while sampling some food from the south market. In the back is a restroom and an area where you can view the brew room. The staff were friendly, masked, and helpful. They were happy to help you make a selection. They have a TV in the sitting area, where we watched a basketball game.

It's okay. The atmosphere is nice. Outside tables lights food trucks. My problem was with tge beer. We tried 4 different ones and we didn't love any of them. We also didn't love the crazy ness of the Latina bike riders that came in. They were just very loud and took over the joint.

Upscale storefront and space for miles, check. Food trucks, check. Multiple Cornhole boards, check-check. Most importantly, beer, check-check and check some more. I purchased four taster sized beers for a modest price and took a tour of Bike Rack Brewing Co. At first I was looking for the reason... they had it all up to this point. Most of their standard brews were pretty standard, but then, then I tasted the Sticky Passion Milkshake DIPA....... and I found out why my friend suggested Bike Rack. Beers and tastes are subjective and I recognize that fact. I found the one beer that if I lived in the area would bring me to frequent this brewery. So far the space, the people, and the beer have helped me enjoy Bike Rack Brewing Co. it really does have it all. I only have one thing I wish they did a little better, and it involves my lady-love. She has a wheat allergen and because the brewmaster wasn't working any longer we had to fly solo to figure out beer styles that were sans wheat on the menu. But in the end we figured it out. Though things would've been far easier if there was a readily accessible list but I digress into irrelevancies. Bike Rack Brewing Company checks all the boxes and probably a few more I haven't found yet. So give them a try and see which checks they mark off on your list.

Love this place and the atmosphere! I love where it is located. Right in the 8th Street Market District. Chill vibes, and good beer. They have performances on the weekends. Also, this place is pet friendly! I took my friends here for the first time the other night and they absolutely loved it. We did the flights of beers and tried every flavor. The price is also very reasonable. MUST VISIT if you are in the Bentonville area.

Went here tonight for a date night for the first time. The atmosphere is super upbeat and happy. The bartenders were super nice. I got a delicious citrus tasting light beer that tastes so different from anything I've ever had. Zoji Hefewieizen is what it was called. They have several food trucks right outside the patio and seating inside and at the bar. This is a great place to go.

Love this spot to grab a drink and sit outside. They always have 2 ciders on tap, and I love that they support local breweries. FYI--they don't offer any food, but you are allowed to get food from other places and bring it in, so get a to-go order from Yeyo's or the Holler, and bring it with you. They also stock board games to play while you drink, which is awesome!!

I liked the ambience, the open-air feel, the picnic tables, the cornhole board, and the bartender gave us some great travel tips for the area. More of a personal taste, but I didn't care for the beer or ciders. My friend really enjoyed hers! I'd go back, but not for the drinks.

Bike rack at the 8th street market is nestled on the outskirts of downtown bentonville and has great outdoor seating along with a variety of food options to select from that should satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. On certain days there is live music and is kiD/ pet friendly. Most importantly if you need a drink and want a taste of what the local beers are like then bike rack should meet those needs. You can order 2oz tasters, flights, and 16 oz drinks. There's also wine for those preferring that. So if you're in the mood for local craft brews, with a variety of food options, good indoor outdoor atmosphere then come on over to bike rack on 8th street for a good time.

The vibe in this place was awesome and laid back with some tasty brews to top it off. The bartender was kinda all over the place but decor was pretty cool. It's a solid location to get some beers in Bentonville.

Super cute and trendy craft brewery founded by a former Walmart executive. Been here twice after dinner and it's very crowded and lit both times. I'm not a big beer person but I tried their 2 ciders - hibiscus and apricot. Both were light and yet so aromatic, flavorful, and delicious! The apricot one is a bit more sour so if you're looking for an acidic taste it's perfect. Neither are too sweet so you don't get sick of it as you consume. I always see a ton of cool food trucks by the brewery but haven't tried any. There's also a taco shop and other small restaurants nearby that I may try in the future to support local businesses! The bartenders are super friendly and the vibe is awesome, so I highly recommend this place for casual hangouts and corporate events.

I really enjoyed the selection of beers and the friendly service. We had a quick drink while waiting for a table at Pedalers Inn next door. They have a variety of games to keep you occupied whether you are staying or not.

The beer is great and the bar is nice. The outdoor area is so cool and it's in a great location to go hang out all day. Things can be a little hectic at the bar, though, and there tends to be a lot of "cutting" due to people walking in the doors and straight up to the bar to order, passing people waiting for service. The bartenders are relatively bad at recognizing who to give service to first.

Great atmosphere and brews! Food trucks for food if you get hungry. Family friendly. We played games while enjoying our beer on the "patio" area. Seemed like a tourist and local hot spot so we felt right in there!

The location just outside of Downtown Bentonville allows for easy access and makes it feel a lot more private than it actually is. Plus it seems that Arkansans don't really appreciate what they've got here! It has some good outdoor seating but could easily get crowded due to lack of space. Proximity of food options is great as they don't serve any but let you bring whatever you want: Peddler's Pub is literally 5 feet away and there are myriad options within 5 mins of walking Ambiance is pretty good. I really like the lack of television and the music level is kept pretty low making conversation easy. Beer: AMAZING Imperial Trooper Porter. I'm still thinking about this. The Biere de Garde was also yeasty and a bit sour and so enjoyable after a sweltering day. It'll be nice to try more in the future.

This is a really cool space to have a beer - in doors or out doors and whether you drove your car or rode your bike to the brewery. I enjoyed the Slaughter Pen IPA and a saison that was on tap.

Cool spot. Spent the evening listening to great musicians and drinking several wonderful Oatmeal Stouts. Bartenders looked like they had had a long day & weren't very personable - otherwise would have been a 5 star. I will definitely be back as the weather warms up - large patio and food trucks outside are ideal for sunny weather.

Small local craft brew place! Nice outdoor area and plenty of games to play! Flight came with all of their beers on tap!

I admit right off: I've never been here. But!!! I called Bike Rack Brewing because it looked like THE perfect place to park our bikes and sip a brew. I was scouting the area of Bentonville (online) and I was amazed at the mountain bike trails! We live across the other side of the country and are thinking about packing up and moving to Bentonville for it's outdoorsy fun. I wanted to get a feel of the area by speaking with a local (who likes good beer), so I called Bike Rack and took a blind chance and whalah! Addie answered the phone and she was wonderful! She took the time to answer my dumb questions about the area. If God willing, we move there, the first thing I'll do is visit this really cool place, who has super cool peeps working there! Looking forward to tasting the beer! Cheers Addie!

I've been several times now and the beer is always amazing! I'm not typically a fan of stout beer but their Oatmeal Stout is incredible! Orange creamsicle is one of my favorites! We went recently on a Thursday night when a band was playing and it was too loud to have a conversation, so will avoid going if a band is playing! Great place and fun atmosphere!

Beers are good but service is lacking. For a Friday afternoon only one person behind the bar.

Love this new location. Brightwater is an amazing facility. Lots of parking available. Nice open pub that has largest steel bay doors that open to a large patio. The patio has lots of seating and shaded areas. Dog friendly (yay!) Food truck currently there is Big Rub, also delicious.

We love trying out new breweries, near and far. Craft beer has a special spot in my heart. I opted for the flight of beers-usually I do this when I haven't visited a brewery before. I got the flight of four 4oz pours for $5, which isn't bad at all. Out of trying the IPA, Double IPA, Pale Ale, and seasonal Grapefruit Saison- I enjoyed the IPA and saison the best. Please try this place and love your local breweries! Only reason I'm giving 4/5 stars is the flies.... we decided to sit outside and enjoy this Arkansas summer heat... the flies were swarming. Easy fix as an establishment though.

I always enjoy coming here and hanging out outside. They are dog friendly and they also have cornhole and many board games. Some nights hey have live music.

Another fantastic brewery I visited today! Amazing beer, bartenders and the people at the brewery were friendly. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the beers as much as my group was! Can't wait to visit again one day but in the meantime I had to bring some back with me!

Legit. Perf selection, feel vibe, bar bro is legit. Music on point. V suggested for a loner like me or groups like y'all. That cardinal kiss cider is yumbo

We were visiting the area and looking for a local hangout to enjoy for a few drinks. We came across Bike Rack and was pleasantly surprised. They are located in/at 8th Street Market. It's a great place that has indoor and outdoor places to relax. There is no food at the Brewery but they do have food trucks and there is a restaurant, Holler next door that you can get to go. We didn't eat either. But we did have a great local brew and listened to an amazing band! Definitely a great place for people to hang out!

Wonderful place to grab a delicious beer in the Bentonville, and NWA area. They have tasty beers on tap and a great atmosphere. The staff and brewers and very friendly and helpful. They make sure that you are happy and they help you find a beer that you will enjoy! Nestled in the 8th street market this is a great place to go hang out with some friends and enjoy a cold brew!

Great location downtown. Loved the atmosphere, small (very small) but nice outdoor seating. Great place to relax with some awesome tasting beer after some trail riding. For those who would rather have coffee/espresso over beer, they got you covered too.

Such a great spot. The beer is terrific and loved all their well branded merchandise.
