Wright’s Barbecue is opening a second location in Little Rock, according to media reports.
Wright’s is planning to build on Rahling Road near its intersection with Chenal Parkway in west Little Rock. Arkansas Business first reported the news.
Based in northwest Arkansas, Wright’s currently operates six locations — the original in Johnson, three in Bentonville, including a new restaurant on the Walmart corporate campus, one in Rogers and an existing Little Rock location on Rebsamen Park Road in Riverdale.
This past fall, Wright’s announced that it was opening a location in Benton.
Established in northwest Arkansas in 2016, Wright’s moved into the central Arkansas market in 2023. Wright’s hit No. 1 on Yelp’s list of “Top 100 Barbecue Spots of 2024,” and last year, owner Jordan Wright was nominated for a James Beard Award.
