5&10
Experience the store that started it all. Packed with vintage charm, classic merchandise and fun throwbacks, this humble dime store is a tribute to Sam Walton’s retail roots.
From original fixtures to nostalgic toys and candy, every corner offers a glimpse into the small-town spirit and entrepreneurial drive that built Walmart.
Spark Café
Cool off with a scoop (or two) at The Spark Café, a retro-style soda fountain where Sam Walton’s love of ice cream lives on!
It's still serving Arkansas-made Yarnell’s ice cream (including Sam's favorite flavor, butter pecan) along with other Walmart-themed sundaes and sweet treats!
