🥗 Stu’s Clean Cookin Moves to Van Buren — and Answers Your Top Questions

The River Valley’s favorite clean-eating kitchen opens a new chapter in Van Buren while clearing up what customers ask most.

Stu’s Clean Cookin — known across the River Valley for its balanced, ready-to-eat meals and high-protein comfort food — has officially moved to 2925 Alma Highway, Suite B6 in Van Buren, joining its sister stores in Fort Smith and Russellville.

The new spot offers a brighter space, easier access, and the same signature grab-and-go coolers packed with freshly prepared meals.

Regulars will still find all the favorites — BBQ chicken, turkey meatballs, and those clean desserts that make eating healthy feel easy.

“Same clean meals, new location,” the team said in a recent video.

“We’re so thankful for the community support and can’t wait to welcome everyone to our new Van Buren home.”

And to answer the flood of questions they get each week, Stu’s shared this handy Q&A 👇

💚 Quick Q&A with Stu’s Clean Cookin

Are you gluten-free?
Not as a facility — but many meals have no gluten added. They can’t guarantee a completely gluten-free environment.

Do you deliver or ship?
No delivery or shipping right now. After some trial runs, Stu’s decided to focus on in-store quality. Shipping isn’t allowed under current USDA rules, though they hope to someday.

Are you expanding?
Expansion across Arkansas is a long-term goal, but for now the team is focused on serving the River Valley community.

Can I customize my meals?
Not currently — the prep system is designed for consistency and efficiency.

Do I need to pre-order?
No! Walk-ins are welcome anytime. Pre-orders are convenient but not required.

What are the hours?
🕓 Monday–Friday 10 AM – 6 PM
🕓 Saturday 10 AM – 4 PM
🚫 Closed Sunday

Should I freeze or refrigerate my meals?
Freeze them! Meals keep far longer and reheat beautifully.

Do you have vegetarian options?
Not yet, but it’s on their radar for future menus.

Whether you’re meal-prepping for the week or just grabbing a quick lunch, Stu’s keeps it simple: healthy meals, no contracts, no fuss.
