Things To Do In Little Rock
At The Corner
At the Corner is a tasty local diner. It's great for a quick bite of breakfast or lunch.
Big Dam Bridge
If you want to get some exercise, the Big Dam Bridge is a walking bridge that goes over the Arkansas River Dam. There are several miles of trails that extend from the bridge, and it is a great place to learn a little about Arkansas nature and to take in some beautiful scenery.
Fassler Hall
Our local biergarten. This is a fun place to go for some beers and bratwursts or pretzels.
Heifer Village & Urban Farm
Heifer is a nonprofit founded in Little Rock which seeks to provide environmentally sustainable living to villages around the world. The headquarters has a small farm and educational exhibits that is great for kids!
Kavanaugh Boulevard
This is a great street to go to for some shopping and lunch! We recommend starting at the corner of N University Avenue and Kavanaugh Boulevard and walk you way down. There is everything from clothing boutiques to specialty kitchen stores to restaurants.
Museum of Discovery
The Museum of Discovery is a lot of fun for kids! I remember going to this museum as a kid many times and loving every minute of it.
Old State House Museum
A great museum to learn about Arkansas history.
Pinnacle Mountain State Park
Pinacle Mountain is located approximately 30 minutes from downtown Little Rock, but the views you can enjoy from atop the Mountain are so worth it! Climbing the mountain is great exercise, but just make sure to bring some water.
River Market Pavilions
The River Market Pavillions are home to a food hall with several different kinds of cuisines available to choose from. This is a great place to go for lunch. Just note that it is not open on Sundays.
Rock Town Distillery
Rock Town Distillery is the first legal distillery of any kind to open in Arkansas since prohibition. They specialize in Bourbon Whiskey, but they make all kinds of spirits. The distillery offers tours and tastings open to the public daily.
The Root Cafe
The Root is a recently opened cafe that is great for breakfast or lunch. Guy Fieri visited the cafe to film an episode of Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives that aired on Food Network this past year--that's as good an endorsement as any!
Three Fold Noodles + Dumpling Co.
This is a great restaurant for a casual lunch. Note that they are not open on Sundays.
William J. Clinton Library and Museum
This museum is perfect for history buffs. The museum offers exhibits detailing the years of the Clinton Administration, as well as information about Bill Clinton in Arkansas before he became President. The museum also offers a restaurant for lunch, 42 Bar and Table, open Monday-Saturday.
