Sparky’s is a family operated, locally owned one-of-a-kind restaurant with a fun environment and delicious food. The burgers are made fresh every day from meat coming from the local grocer. They have been around for nearly 25 years in Eureka Springs sharing their hilarious saying S.U.A.E. “Shut up and eat”. Sparky’s is also know for their beers. They have 99 different beers available and 25 of them on tap.
Sparky’s made it on our list of 20 Family Fun Things in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. If you haven’t already, be sure to check out our full list!
The Environment of Sparky’s
The building itself is interesting because part of it used to be a car wash and the other part used to be a gas station. They connected both buildings creating what it is today. It’s fun seeing the different rooms and how different they all are.
They have two outdoor seating areas both unique and fun. You will see the first outdoor area upon entering the building. The second area is in the back that has misters to keep you cool during the summer.
Each room is decorated with all kinds of fun things. The room we ate in had a bowling lane complete with a bowling ball and pins hanging upside down on the ceiling. There were also all kinds of things on the walls and shelves to keep us entertained as they prepared our food.
Another room has beer taps covering the walls. Everywhere you look throughout Sparky’s has something fun to look at. It kept the boys happy as they were spying different objects across the building.
Sparky’s Food and Drinks
Sparky’s has all kinds of American Food but they are known for their burgers, which have been voted, “The Best Burger in Arkansas” in the past.
We started out with some chips and queso. The queso was different than what we get at the Tex-mex restaurant around Oklahoma but it was a good kind of different.
I ordered the burger that had been voted as the best in Arkansas, The Wally Burger.
It comes with grilled onions, sautéed mushrooms, & swiss cheese on a ciabatta bun. (I’m not a big fan of mushrooms but I like trying new things so I had them placed on the side). The burger was delicious and the fries were so good!
Kayla was torn between the chili and the bean burger until our waitress suggested she get the Chili Burger made with a bean patty. It was very filling, as she was only able to finish half of it in one sitting, but it made for great left overs!
Cash got the kids burger and ate it up. He enjoyed it and the fries. It’s rare when we don’t have to beg him to eat his food!
Cale got the chicken and fries. It came with a cup of ranch, and if you know Cale is his ranch obsessed.
I ate some of his chicken because it was a large kids plate and he was unable to finish it all. The tenders were large and tasty with a nice crunchy breading.
We finished it off with dessert, a big Brownie Sunday which we quickly demolished. The brownie had nuts mixed in and it was perfect for the 4 of us to share.
Side note:
Sparky’s isn’t a fast food place, they cook the meals per order but it seemed to come out fast for us. It may be because there were so many entertaining decorations to look at and the staff was fun to talk to.
They also have some Sparky’s Merchandise for sale so be sure to check that out before you leave!
Parking at Sparky’s
Parking can be a hassle for many restaurants, especially in busier areas. Thankfully Sparky’s has a parking lot in the front of the restaurant, and additional parking on the side. All the parking here is convenient and free.
