Juice Palm to come to Bentonville

BENTONVILLE -- Juice Palm owner Omar Kasim said he'll open a second location in Bentonville this October.

The 801 S.E. Eighth St. location will join a Fayetteville location just eight months after it's opening.

The inspiration for a cold-pressed juice bar came to Kasim when he was visiting a friend after the hectic opening of his first restaurant, Con Quesos at 2016 W Martin Luther Blvd. in Fayetteville.

"I took a vacation to New York and noticed health-conscious restaurants on every street corner. I wanted to bring that to Fayetteville," he said.

Kasim said the health-forward approach, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture's certified-organic certificate on all Juice Palm ingredients, saves health-conscious, quick-moving customers time because they won't have to examine labels or vet the product.

Juice Palm of Fayetteville is located at 3959 N. Steele Blvd.

When the Bentonville location opens, Kasim said hours of operation will mimic the daily hours the Fayetteville location has.
