Since we moved to Bella Vista, Papa Mikes has been a popular, excellent, friendly, comfortably casual, and reasonably priced place to gather and dine. We always took our guests there for breakfast or dinner and often times both. Besides that it is a convient place for the bikers to stop for a quick lunch or relaxing dinner. Please don’t make him close

I feel like Papa Mikes has been meeting the needs of our Bella Vista Community. He has offered great food at an affordable price. I feel he actually knows members of this community personally. He calls my sister and I the Shrimp girls. We get his fried shrimp on fridays. He knew my parents and always personally welcomed them by name when they were living. My father ate their at least once a week. He collects marketing intel by listening to negative and positive feedback then adjusts. He took great risk during COVID to keep food being served to the community. It would not surprise me if he knew Asa Hutchinson personally! He is very connected with friendships including the owners of Allen’s whom is another business everyone in Bella Vista counts on and loves.

Good service, good food. Papa Mike's deserves our support and to go against the people's wishes will gain the board negative feelings.

This is not the 1st time I have asked to please allow Papa Mike to continue to do his GREAT JOB for the city of Bella Vista. One of the only affordable places to eat in BV.

Papa Mikes should stay with the present management.

I’ve known and worked with Mike for about 24 years. He takes pride in his work and is dedicated to prepare and serve a quality product at a reasonable price. He’s is wonderful “fixture” in the Bella Vista family and culture. It would be in our best interest to keep Papa Mike in our family!

As residents of Bella Vista, we have been so pleased with Papa Mikes. His long time service to our community should be celebrated, and not be a hindrance for him.

Papa Mike's offers us residents a reasonable place to eat. And it is an awesome place for so many to have lunch & play cards.

We, the Bella Vista members need to have our voices heard. The POA should not have been allowed to become authoritarian.

Papa Mike's is very popular. BV has issues with restaurants staying open. Why would you not want to support this restaurant? Didn't we go through this a year ago or so? Keep Papa Mike's open and no increase in the rent. His restaurant is good for Bella Vista.

We love this place. We would like the POA to renew his lease for another year, without giving him a substantial raise in rent.
