Grateful Head Pizza & Beer Garden is the grooviest place in Hot Springs to eat pizza and drink a nice cold beer, offering a casual, relaxed ambiance and moderate prices.
Owners Billy and Kevin Carper attribute the foundation of their Hot Springs success to their dedicated, exceptional staff. Grateful Head is family friendly, and your dogs are welcome in the outdoor seating areas that host magical views of Downtown and Hot Springs Mountain. The terraced outdoor spaces seat 60 and there are three areas for entertainment.
The pizza is phenomenal with fun names like Psychedelic Supremo, Maui Waui, Tree Hugger, Dire Wolf, Rooster Cogburn, and more. Local vendors are used whenever possible, e.g., always on tap is Superior Bathhouse Brewery craft beer, the world’s first to utilize the thermal spring water as the main ingredient, as well as Bubba Brews. There are also 2 rotating taps weekly.
The Beer List is amazing and includes beer from Arkansas, Louisiana, Nebraska, Belgium, France, Germany, Brazil, Thailand, Spain, India, Ireland and Scotland.
The “Gin Joint” downstairs is a work in progress and features live, local entertainment every week. The Gin Joint’s extensive drink list includes period cocktails that are a must try. Entertainment includes Jazz Sundays, Country, Jug, Rapper, Blues and much more including a Burlesque Show on May 30.
