Stonebreaker Announces Opening Date For Restaurant and Members' Club in Fayetteville

Specialized Real Estate Group (SREG), in partnership with Hay Creek Hotels, announces the October 30, 2024, opening of Stonebreaker’s restaurant and members’ club. Situated atop Markham Hill in Fayetteville, Stonebreaker features a 78-room hotel, restaurant, members’ club, and event venue. The restaurant opens for dinner service daily, while the hotel is scheduled to open in early winter.

John Canavan is the General Manager of the property and brings extensive international hotel and restaurant management experience. “We’ve eagerly awaited the opportunity to welcome the Northwest Arkansas community into this beautiful space, and we couldn’t be more proud of what our team has built. Every aspect of the guest experience has been thoughtfully considered, and we are excited to open our doors," Canavan said.

Executive Chef Tyler Rogers, an Arkansas native with a renowned culinary background, leads the restaurant. Rogers refined his skills under celebrated chefs Thomas Keller, Grant Achatz, and Iliana Regan and was previously Executive Chef at Hail Fellow Well Met! in Johnson, Ark.

Michael Meeks serves as the General Manager of the restaurant, utilizing his extensive hospitality experience, most recently from Ropeswing Hospitality Group. Cognac Franklin is the Club Manager and brings expertise from managing Bentonville's BlakeSt House.

Stonebreaker was designed by Austin-based FÖDA™, a design and brand firm honored twice by the James Beard Foundation.

"Stonebreaker is an important addition to the growing Northwest Arkansas hospitality scene,” said Robert Apple, SREG’s Director of Strategy and Communications. “Our team's experience and vision will make Stonebreaker a standout destination.”

While the restaurant opens with dinner service initially, breakfast and lunch will launch soon. With a seasonally focused menu celebrating Arkansas flavors, the restaurant aims to be a culinary destination for locals and visitors. For more information, visit www.stonebreakerhotel.com.
