Snack Lab opening new location next spring

A hybrid restaurant/grocery store is opening a Fayetteville location next spring.

Snack Lab is planning to be open by March 2020 at 2341 N. College Ave., near the intersection of College Avenue and Township Street.

Business partners Bobby Bland and Emily Amadon founded Snack Lab with the opening of a Bentonville store in the spring of 2017. They opened a second location in August 2019 in The District at Pinnacle Hills in Rogers. Their concept offers healthy options for all times of day, including breakfast and lunch bowls, hand-crafted smoothies, grab-and-go meals unique pre-packaged snacks and catering.

Amadon said the mission is to make healthy eating more convenient for consumers seeking a balanced, active lifestyle.

“We are so excited to be a part of the Fayetteville community,” Bland said. “We have guests in our stores on an almost daily basis asking us to come to Fayetteville. Our mission is to make healthy food easy and convenient for people, so we spent a lot of time looking for just the right spot to achieve that goal.”
