There is an Embassy Suites on campus across from the Arena with a Houlihan's Restaurant and Bar inside of it.

Across Johnson from the stadium is JTown's Grill. https://www.facebook.com/jtownsgrill/

More local flavor near campus that is new locations for some local restaurants is at the corner of Aggie Road and Marion Berry Parkway on the west side of campus (opposite the FB stadium/Arena). I like BA Burrito who now has a location there.

501 Club has good food near Hilton Garden Inn/hotel row a couple miles from campus off of Red Wolf Blvd.

The rest is downtown on Main St. which isn't that far - also a couple miles. Omar's is good there. https://www.omarsuptown.com/

Jonesboro has come a long way when it comes to nightlife and restaurants. It's become one of my favorite trips, believe it or not. All of the above suggestions are great.

And, that Embassy Suites is the nicest one of it's kind I've ever stayed at.

However, if you're going to drink, Arkansas charges about a 30% tax on alcohol purchases (and technically, Craighead County is dry, so you can't go buy it in the stores.)

That explains why my uncles were always so broke living in the crappiest houses with the junkiest of cars but were always drunk with a Busch Light in there hands no matter where they went.

J Town Grill is AMAZING. Also get Shadrach's Coffee while in town. It's locally owned and good tasting if you're into coffee. I also second BA Burrito. If you like Sushi going to Hiro during the lunch deals is my favorite.

Is that in the spreadsheet? If not place it there. I have editing set for anyone.
