Bionics by Onyx
1 Airport Blvd, Bentonville, AR
Crema's Take
“This Bentonville location features Onyx's distinctive Bionics robotic coffee machine, an eye-catching automated brewing system that handles the entire process from bean to cup. While the concept is genuinely innovative and the shop stocks quality Onyx beans, the execution has been frustratingly inconsistent—customers report frequent mechanical failures, incorrect drink compositions, and drinks being discarded mid-pour. If you love the idea of watching automation at work and don't mind a bit of unpredictability, it's worth a visit, but traditional barista-made drinks might be more reliable elsewhere.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout. Quick-grab spot.

Big fans of Onyx coffee. Tried the Hot Chocolate for an evening warm up. The concept of Bionics is cool, but the Hot Chocolate was very underwhelming. Minimal chocolate flavor and no added sugar at all. Basically was steamed milk, water, and a tiny splash of chocolate powder, as…
The machine started to make an iced mocha, then threw the cup and the ice out because it didn’t put enough ice in. Then it proceeded to make another, filling the entire cup with ice and then making the most bland iced mocha I’ve ever had. We also tried the vanilla latte. Same…
This robotic coffee machine Bionics by Onyx has an overall process of making coffee from beans to latte - it was smooth and efficient. However the final result of my experience here was disappointing due to poor service. I ordered a drink, the machine made whole drink but that…
