Best coffee beans I’ve ever smelled or tasted. Mr Stanley is a delight to talk to and its clear he has a real passion for the craft of roasting beans.
I bought a bag and left it in my car and the whole day my car smelled absolutely incredible.
I will surely be ordering for shipping once I leave Fort Smith.
10/10 recommend.

Stan the Owner rocks!! Showed up for a latte and left with a wealth of knowledge on coffee. Including why a blonde roast will have more caffeine and how to ask for hot cold brewed coffee to avoid acid reflux! Loved the coffee, the vibe, the ambiance and the whole lot. I would visit these guys over the national franchise whom will not be named here. Love you guys and see you soon.

Very cozy, I was passing (road trip) by and got a lot of homework done while enjoying my coffee, very spacious, I was the only 1 there tho, everybody just orders to go. Unfortunately they do not cook (temporarily due to covid), they do have pastries/muffins. Parking (metered from 8am till 5 pm, up to 2h, accepts coins only). The space is beautiful and features art work for purchase!

Good espresso and cozy/quaint atmosphere.
I sipped the crema right off the top of the espresso and it blew my mind.
I wasn’t sure what to except from a Fort Smith Cafe, but the Artistic Bean delivered. I ordered a double shot and my wife had a traditional cappuccino. Both were good. The espresso is made on a Victoria Arduino manual espresso machine. It’s a gorgeous machine and it made a gorgeous crema on their fresh in-house roasted beans.
Lots of local artists selling things on stands and shelves. Much of the merchandise was faith based, making me think it’s a Christian owner.
It’s not a traditional specialty coffee shop space, but my visit was good!
The place has a lot of tables and some cozy looking lounge space in the back. Had a good chat with the barista and really enjoyed the vibe. I’ll definitely be going back. Worth the visit.

Not your traditional coffee stop, you won’t be getting a triple shot frappemochachino or whatever. No, here you get organic, house roasted, small batch coffee beans. The owner is knowledgeable about all things coffee and a wonder to talk to. A cup of coffee is FREE, but be sure to tip and probably buy a bag of his signature blend. I took one home myself today! Definitely worth coming to sit and relax, enjoy a cup, and bask in the cozy atmosphere. Why are you still at Starbucks?

The service was amazing. The barista assisted me with which local favorite to order based on what my usual flavor preferences are.
The coffee wasn’t the best I’ve ever had, but it was very good.
This is a very cute cafe, and it seems that it would be a great place to hang out and enjoy some coffee with friends.

So cute. I got the lavender latte my friend tried the salted caramel latte. We both enjoyed the flavors and coffee. They roast their own which is really cool. ☕

There’s a beautiful starry night mural that spans the top of the walls! Loads of art displayed as well. The baristas were very kind and accommodating. I was there between 9-10:30am and it was relatively quiet. Plenty of seating!
I got an americano and later a drip coffee. You can taste the quality. Yum!

Fantastic place ! We came here while travelling from California and the coffee is amazing ! We got the pumpkin latte with oat milk, she made sure it wasn’t too sweet and they were so friendly. Very cute little spot. We would for sure come back .
