Dining & Nightlife for Groups

Whether you have a group of 10 or 100 and want a casual or upscale meal, there are tons of welcoming restaurants serving various cuisines with group accommodations in Uptown Rogers. Book private rooms at Loma or Capriccio Ristorante, which can accommodate up to 14 or 35 people, respectively. Or treat your attendees to steaks and seafood at Crabby’s, which can accommodate up to  80, or opt for Tex-Mex at Chuy’s, a restaurant with space for 50.  Wright’s BBQ also has a large outdoor patio for private events, while Theo’s has multiple private dining options.

To encourage mingling, book space at one of the area’s local craft breweries or bars such as Fox Trail Distillery, which can serve bourbon, vodka, gin and other tasty small-batch spirits to up to 150 guests at a time, or Rendezvous Junction Brewing Co., where up to 200 patrons can sip the maker’s pilsners, hefeweizens and ales. Or get group tickets to a concert or event at  Walmart AMP , named one of the top outdoor amphitheaters in the country.

If you’re simply looking for an event venue for groups to gather  outside of the main meetings, consider the Supply Chain Hall of Fame, which can accommodate up to 108 indoors and 186 on the patio with great views of Uptown from the top of the Kellogg’s building. 

Shopping & Boutiques

Strolling through Uptown Roger’s many local shops and boutiques, which sell everything from brand-name clothing and accessories  to locally made souvenirs, is also a great activity for groups. Find well-known retailers such as Kendra Scott and Athleta at Pinnacle Hills Promenade, or shop for outdoor goods at Bass Pro Shops. In the Pinnacle Hills area, you can also browse for home goods, jewelry and Arkansas-centric gifts at The Dotted Pig  or kitchenware and spices, dried fruits, pickles and other pantry staples at The Fancy Frog Boutique.

Outdoor Activities & Team Experiences

Groups can also explore  northwest Arkansas’ local parks, trails and natural wonders together. There are tons of options in and around Uptown Rogers. Go for a hike or bike ride amid the beauty of the Ozarks or pop on the 40-mile Razorback Greenway—a route that connects Bentonville, Rogers, Lowell, Springdale and Johnson—from Mercy Trailhead.
