Locate on Malvern Avenue and named for its street address, Cafe 1217 is THE lunch spot in Hot Springs. Their menu is chef-inspired and full of healthy gourmet options. To keep things really interesting and fresh, the menu changes monthly to highlight seasonal foods. This is a wonderful place to eat in or call and get to-go food for an afternoon hike/picnic or afternoon on the lake. They do serve early dinners but close at 6 PM.

Spa/Massages

Hot Springs has many spa retreats to enhance your relaxation. Check out my favorite three...
The mosaic tiled dome of the original Quapaw Bathhouse makes it the most striking building on Bathhouse Row today. Vacant since closing in 1984, it was the first to be leased for adaptive reuse. After extensive renovations, it reopened as a family-oriented spa in 2008. Visit the Quapaw Baths website at http://quapawbaths.com/for more information, a menu of services, and pricing. The local phone number is (501) 609-9822.

Learn and relive the history of this great National Park city... Bathhouse Row is a collection of bathhouses, associated buildings, and gardens located at Hot Springs National Park in the city of Hot Springs, Arkansas. The bathhouses were included in 1832 when the Federal Government took over four parcels of land to preserve 47 natural hot springs, their mineral waters which lack the sulphur odor of most hot springs, and their area of origin on the lower slopes of Hot Springs Mountain.

Boat riding, fishing, swimming, floating or dining out with the beautiful lake views, Lake Hamilton is right at your fingertips. There are boat rentals, fishing tours, and several great "on the water" restaurants to look into. Just lazy floating with friends or loved ones makes for a perfect afternoon in my book!
