Hotel
Graduate Fayetteville

Please take advantage of our group booking for which you will need to make a reservation by 9/20/2024 to receive the group rate.
Flight
Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA)
XNA is the most convenient airport if you're flying. Located in Bentonville, AR. It's a quick 10 minute drive to the house, so we can pick you up if needed. It's about 20-30 drive to Fayetteville (where the wedding will be).
Flight
Tulsa International Airport (TUL)
Tickets into Tulsa tend to be cheaper than XNA, but its a longer drive to get to the area. Tulsa is 1.5 hours from Fayetteville. So sometimes it makes sense, but XNA is usually the best choice.
Travel Note
A Taste of Thai
Brice's favorite restaurant. A frequent stop for us and our coworkers. Our patronage over the years has been so excessive they should really build a statue of us in the lobby. There was a time where Brice would go a few times a week. Try the Pra Ram, Masaman curry, and the Evil Jungle Prince curry!
Travel Note
Atlas, The Restaurant
Aryn's favorite restaurant. Fine dining at its finest! It is expensive and would be a splurge, but the food, drinks, and service are incredible. Aryn wishes she had two birthdays so she could be taken here more often.
Travel Note
Rolandos
Located on Dickson street, Rolandos was where Aryn and Brice had their first dinner date. Very unique Latin American cuisine that goes great with an on the rocks margarita or three. Brice highly recommends the Pollo Chuchaqui, but would dare not try to pronounce it. Aryn highly recommends their unique salsa!
Travel Note
Theos
Another excellent fine dining restaurant in Fayetteville. A personal favorite of both Brice and Aryn. It's more affordable than Atlas and has a killer sous vide pork chop. We also would very much recommend the bone marrow appetizer paired with their brown butter old fashioned. Fun fact - it's a place we often have business dinner and Brice has a long standing record of eating there for free. The streak lives on!
Travel Note
Bordinos
Bordinos has consistently been a top place to eat in Fayetteville, being conveniently located on Dickson street. It's Italian food with a creative and unique cocktail menu. The Wild boar sausage fettuccini is very good!
Travel Note
Wrights BBQ
This may be controversial given how many people from Texas will be coming to the wedding, but hear us out... Wrights BBQ is as good as it gets! It is 'Texas style', so there's that. Everything on the menu is great! Don't let the line scare you - it moves fast.
Travel Note
Hugos
A Fayetteville classic, just off the square. It's in the lower basement of an old brick building, but you can't miss it! Excellent burgers and sandwiches. There can be a bit of a wait, but it does not disappoint.
Travel Note
Wood Stone Craft Pizza
Can't go wrong with pizza. Great place with unique pizzas and dipping sauces. The Bloomington is so unique and tastes great. There's even a Thai pizza!
Travel Note
Tavola Trattoria
If you're in Bentonville, we recommend Tavola as an excellent Italian restaurant. Shockingly, the eggplant lasagna is one of the best things on the menu. Great sangria. The fried olives are also choice.
Travel Note
Table Mesa
Another Aryn go-to. This is also located in the Bentonville square. Very tasty Mexican / Southwest food. Aryn has a well known, medically diagnosed brunch addiction. Table Mesa has just the medicine!
