Dickson Street is a great spot for walking - Go out of the Cosmopolitan, take a right, walk about 3 blocks and there is Dickson Street. Take a left - it has many shops, restaurants (all different kinds - Mexican, sushi, coffee shops, brew pub) - many with tables outside on the street, Dickson Street Book Shop is there, Walton Arts Center has a nice gallery, post office, drug store, art galleries. It is the heart of the Fayetteville Entertainment District - bars with music are there also - the street leads right up to the university. Again, nice street to stroll on.

Tiny Tim’s Pizza Delicious, right in the town square a block away from the hotel with a bar attached. The bar is open late.




The Flying Burrito Voted BEST PLACE EVER by Jennica Hampson, Its Chipotle times 10. Its very good, build a fantastic burrito and thank me later! Kate (Ryan’s Sister-in-law here in Los Angeles) eats there numerous time per visit, so she would probably agree with Jennica’s recommendation.


Arsaga’s: good café owned by old family friends of the Schwartzman’s who live on the land next to Ryan’s parents. Carrie Arsaga, the owner, used to change Ryan’s diapers then when Ryan went to college he had to learn to change his diapers himself.
