I always like shopping the Supercenters. Larger selection than local stores.
Just needed 2 keys made. After asking 3 employees for help. After walking from car care center to grocery aisle And back to car care center 2 1/2 times. I finally got the answer that there wasn’t a key in stock and he couldn’t make me any keys.
There was only1 cashier on duty
Convenient and clean
Horrible customer service. Its all self-checkout while employees watch. The other two grocery stores in town are better.
Sold out of a lot of things you would think it is gona come blizzard or something
I went to WalMart in Alma this morning to pay our electric bill. When I got to the desk i handed the older lady the bill. She looked at the bill and told me she couldn’t let me pay it there because it was a shut off noticed. After discussing it, I walked back to the car. I told my wife what had happened and she said she had another bill in her purse that wasn’t a shut off notice. So I took that bill back to customer service, to my delight there was another lady there ,Viviana, who showed no foul with me paying bill. Never take a shut off notice to Wal Mart, they won’t let u pay it there. Company policy.

Everyone craves their favorite McDonald’s food choice. At least once in a blue moon; some more than others, but nonetheless! It’s all your favorite good mood fast food in one! So let your heart win and grab a big mac and fries every now and again! Plus they’ve updated their 1, 2, 3,&&4$ menus! There’s something the entire family will love! &&Now breakfast is served at every location! (*Some items not available on breakfast menu all day)
I paid for an extra med French fries that was left out of they order. Everything else was okay.
Good service
Food was done right and fast
Not happy right now. I ordered a un-sweet tea and was given a sweet tea. Good thing I am not diabetic. However I do have lupus and the sugar could aggravate my inflammation. This is not a good mistake to make on the part of the servers. Usually they are pretty good, but this mistake can hurt someone if they’re not paying attention to what they are getting.
Is drive-through Was slow
Too expensive for what you get
4. The Musician’s Exchange
Address: 2221 Alma Hwy, Van Buren, AR 72956 , Alma , Arkansas , United States
Bill and his crew have taken care of me and my family and my friends for YEARS. Prices are well within reach, whether your are looking for new, or gently used. I’ve taken banjos for repair, as well as amplifiers– again, repairs done in a timely manner and the price was extremely fair. Although I am nothing more than a customer, both Bill and Bob as well as Rachael and the others have always treated me like a king. I highly recommend this business. I can’t say enough good things about them!!
Hey, I and a collection of preachers, musicians and singers always stop there on our way to PRISON to play and sing and share Gods love with the boys in Tucker. The staff are smart, working players. The prices are great. Area players swear by the place. When I’m on that side of the river, that’s where I Go. Once, they were out of a brand of strings for ms and gave me a FREE SET of equivalent to make up for it. THEY ARE GREAT
Cool place friendly
Drove by & stopped because I’m new to the area and was looking for a music store. I’m a new drummer, so I was only curious about their drum supplies. Sadly, they had very little drum stuff, with only a handful of used cymbals for sale on display that I could try out.
The few drum sets they had were used, in bad condition & were stacked (not on stands or with heads on them). So, I was a bit disappointed.
Store looked a bit old, dirty & run down. The two guys working behind the counter were busy chatting with regular customers, but did welcome me when I entered the store. They were pleasant enough (which is why I gave 3 stars instead of 2). Wish they had more quality drum stuff to offer.
Friendly people but kinda pricey
Had a hard time trying any of the basses or bass amps….nothing was even plugged in…..had to run extension cords all over the place . Then the basses and amps were so crowded could not move to even try the gear out. Didn’t feel like rerunning power to the whole department to try any other amps out. Shame would have tried more gear out….but just wasn’t expecting to hook it all up myself. Sorry guys you lost a sale….take ten minutes plug In couple bass amps everyday instead of sitting out smoking…..dude you know who you are….you shut the door on my wife as you went back in after your cig break….seriously….Shame store has potential
Hate it I could not find a clarinet ,:(
Dropped a guitar off for the owner to look at. He told me over the phone he’d give $150 for it and only a few hours later when I came in to get the money he prints me a ticket off and hands me $100. I reminded him that wasn’t what we agreed on and all he said was “that’s all I can do unless you want me to undo the transaction”. Not good business in my opinion. He lost a customer over 50 bucks. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
And now he’s calling me a liar. This isn’t some story I made up when I was bored, it actually happened. Remember the guitar was dropped off so it could be appraised. I don’t enjoy writing bad reviews but this one was earned.
Dropped my guitar off before Christmas was told it would be ready 2nd week of January. Called 3rd week was told not yet. Called 1st week of February was told it was being repaired. Called 4th week was told it would be ready today or tomorrow. Still not ready. Called March 2nd was told still not ready had not started on it had no idea when they would start on it or when it would be ready. Then the smart ass says if I am in a hurry I could just come and get it he did not care.
5. Alma Performing Arts Center
Address: 103 E Main St, Alma, AR 72921 , Alma , Arkansas , United States
Every event I have attended here has been top knotch from elementary school performances to name touring celebrities. The sound system always works and people moving is great.
What can you say?☺
Good
Beautiful mid sized venue with modern amenities.
Great facility.
Great facility
Handicap accessible means sitting in the very back of the lower level. To get to any other seats requires stairs. We had to assist my mother to a seat as the back row was filled with non-handicaped people. The side door exits are very loud, the doors close with a big bang. The baby was getting fussy so I moved to the seats against the wall by a side door exits so not to interrupt others, but that diminished my having a good experience. If you are sitting near them it is a constant interruption of loud banging. I understand not wanting food or drinks in the auditorium but the show we attended was over 2 hours long. It would have been nice to purchase a bottle of water in the lobby and dispose of it before returning to the show. Water fountains are provided in the lobby but as I approached one for a drink the hillbilly ahead of me spit in it. There are no changing tables in the bathrooms. I had to change the baby on a bench in the lobby. This facility has a lot of potential but as it stands now, it’s very disappointing.
Alma is so rich they built this place… Just because. The roads are in dire need of repair. Someone help!!!!!
Please help!!!!! They are putting FLOURIDE IN OUR WATER.

Really good place for buying what you need. Best prices an service. Check them out.
Happy
Been there, they have a good variety of parts they are comprable to others and sometimes cheaper they have good great parts
Very friendly and accommodating employees. The merchandise is expensive.
They treat delivery personnel like garbage. If you don’t want trucks next to your precious Bro Country Chevy, don’t park it next to the receiving door. It’s very simple.
9. Alma Gunworks
Address: 114 Evergreen St, Alma, AR 72921 , Alma , Arkansas , United States
Erik Conner is a solid guy! He is very knowledgeable and does great work. He’s honest and will walk you through any questions you have. He truly wants you to be comfortable with your purchase. Alma Gunworks is worth the drive!!
Awesome shop. Super friendly service. Always have ammo and suppressors what more could you ask for? Glad they opened
I love shopping at alma gunworks. they are very family friendly and a one stop shop for all of your needs. If Erik doesn’t have it he will order it for you. He will buy and trade your unwanted guns. Alma Gunworks also offers onsite gunsmithing. He has plenty of ammo. I wouldn’t shop anywhere else.
Do NOT recommend!! I made an appointment with him and on the day of the appointment he wouldn’t answer his phone. Made multiple attempts and even left messages. He has still never returned my call!! I wouldn’t trust him with anything of mine!
Alma gunworks seems like a very nice place
I highly recommend staying away from Alma gun works AKA Erik Conner….This guy will lie directly to your face and then stab you in the back. Avoid at all costs!!!!

Diamond in the rough. This place is a wellspring of music in this town. Kinda out of the way. But they have all the stuff you need for playing. Great service the owner is very knowledgeable. Good prices.
My uncle and dad are the ones who work there and run the place, but is actually a very nice place where they get things done but if they can’t help you they will give you other places where people could help you. the’re very helpful
These guys were very helpful and helped me with everything I needed. Gave me some awesome advice as well.Great music shop!!!
Cool small town music store
Ok
I bought strings here a few times.
Called just now to ask if they hard guitar technicians, got a “well yeah”. I asked if they could help me set a neck on a guitar kit i had bought, “I dont have time for that, i can do it, but i dont have time for that”. I can buy strings anywhere. Haha. Goodness. I dont have time for that.
Open just for certain customers, they are going out of business because everyone is using the web to buy. Alot of old vintage instruments in there.
Not much in store but friendly and helpful

Cool place to stop on Route 66. Clean bathrooms and friendly staff
friendly staff
Outstanding inside and out
bathroom too far
Love Love’s
They offer a wide variety of products.
There pretty slow at the fuel desk and there fountain drinks doesn’t work well!
Not a bad stop, just some lazy workers standing around, I had to complain about getting the shower cleaned, I was waiting for one for over 30 minutes, and the shower was empty, only had one lady that I guess was the only one working while the others did nothing, first time I had to complain to get a shower cleaned, uggg
Signs for trucks vs cars is very confusing
14. A to Z Gifts & More
Address: 3801 N Hwy 71, Alma, AR 72921 , Alma , Arkansas , United States
My place to shop, the prices are great and you never know what treasure you might find. Several buildings on both sides of the road in Alma, Ar. Anything from home improvement to decor, all types of tools for inside and out, from the house to vehicles. Other buildings for furniture, sports, hunting and fishing. Another large building for gifts, food, crafts, pets supplies, kitchen supplies, holiday decoration, baby showers, weddings, and whatever is in stock at that time.
Lots of. Useful gadgets
There’s always new stuff in stock and you may have to look, but you can always leave w/ a good deal on something or a hidden gem!
Lots and lots to choose from. Sometimes you just get lost in that big warehouse. They have a wonderful selection of artificial flowers and wired ribbon.
Went to get flowers for headstones. Prices are alright but so much junk. The main reason for the bad review is when I was at the register and another customer came in with a service animal. The woman at the register checking me out stopped ringing me up to tell the woman the dog must be in the cart and they are not really supposed to have dogs in the store. Telling me that the health department was investigating again and checking in and they serve food there. I was shocked she treated the other customer this way even after the customer stated she had all the service animal paperwork and offered to show it. She was allowed to shop and the worker finished my transaction but continued to talk negatively about service animals and the dog being in there. Very rude and uncalled for.
I haven’t been here in awhile and decided to visit again to find flowers. they now have a new owner and the prices have gone way up and the flower arrangements did not look good at all!!
It was ridiculous just trying to exchange a sunspinner, i hd purchased 5 days prior for one that actually worked. Ive shopped there for yrs, but do hv second thoughts now. It ws so ridiculous i ws crying & very angry, hd even called them before i took it back.

I recently started violin lessons with Miss. Lisa and it really helped me get back into one of my passions (music lol). I thank PMC and Miss. Lisa, love you guys
Great people , great work . Very knowledgeable I highly recommend this place to everyone if you have repairs or are looking to learn how to play an instrument.
Definitely the best place to find your music needs in Conway! And if you need drum work of any kind look for Bear he’s your guy.
I was looking at electric guitars and they didn’t offer to let me plug any of them in. How are you truly going to know if you like one or not if you can’t hear the sound.
Usually busy because they’re good at what they do!
Talked to Joey in the store today. He took some time to help me plan for an upcoming purchase for our church. They have a large selection of all kinds of musical instruments and they do lessons, as well. Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Highly recommended! Thanks, Joey!
Go to GUITAR CENTER instead (you can actually have FUN there).
Went in expecting to buy a new guitar on 01/26/2023. The man behind the counter was very unfriendly & unhelpful.
I found one I wanted to buy but I just didn’t really want to give my money to a person who didn’t know how to smile.
Another employee walked by and was even more emotionless than the other guy. I left feeling very unwelcome.
I will not be back.
17. Olive Coffee Company | Alma Branch
Address: 505 Fayetteville Ave, Alma, AR 72921 , Alma , Arkansas , United States
My favorite drink is the Iced Caramel Latte! Very smooth taste. I love the alternate milk options such as oat milk. Cannot wait for them to be officially open to the public.
Wonderful local coffee and beans
The owners offered a sample of some of their menu items. Everything was very good and the family is very nice and knowledgeable about their coffee! Can’t wait for them to open.
