Ep. 57 - Goodcents: Bentonville's Newest Sub Sensation

A culinary revelation has arrived in Bentonville, and the B-Team couldn't wait to sink their teeth into it. Meet Jason, owner of Goodcents Subs, who's brought this Kansas City-born sandwich shop to Northwest Arkansas just five days before joining us in the studio—complete with an impressive spread that left our hosts speechless (and stuffed).The magic starts with the bread—pillowy soft and baked fresh daily in three varieties. The Garlic Pepper bread quickly emerged as a favorite, delivering bold flavor without needing additional toppings. Even our most critical hosts—those with East Coast Italian roots who typically dress their sandwiches with every condiment available—were astounded by how delicious these subs tasted completely unadorned.But Goodcents isn't just another sandwich shop. Their pasta offerings—Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Alfredo, and Meatball—became instant showstoppers at just $7.99 per generous portion. "I was not expecting that," admitted Josh, our resident Italian meatball expert, as he went back for seconds.What truly distinguishes Goodcents from its competitors is its remarkable value. Signature 16-inch subs start at just $13.49, with classic options even more affordable. Their catering options, including boxed lunches and party platters of 4-inch sandwiches, make feeding a crowd both easy and economical.Located at 2508 Walton Boulevard (next to Love's Donuts), Goodcents represents Jason's passion project after previously opening a popular breakfast restaurant in Bentonville. With 14 employees already on staff and plans to expand to Bella Vista, Pea Ridge, and Rogers, this sandwich sensation is just getting started.Ready to try it yourself?
