The Jenks Riverwalk sits on the west bank of the Arkansas River. It's a great place for shopping, walking, and has several yummy food options, Like: Andolini's Pizza, Los Cabos Mexican Restaurant, BurnCo BBQ, Marble Slab Creamery and Great American Cookie, and the Melting Pot. There's also a newly installed playground for the kids. At the far end of the Riverwalk is Suite Shots - a golf driving rank with food and entertainment.
Forget something? Tulsa Hillls probably has it! Shop at stores like: Target, Dicks Sporting Goods, Mashall's, Best Buy and more. We're even getting an Ikea (due to open fall of 2026). Or grab a bite to eat at Cava, Hideaway Pizza, Panda Express, and more. And of course, there's a Starbucks :)
