With the North End District just walking distance from NSU Tahlequah, visitors can enjoy local shopping and dining at their leisure. You can also take time to enjoy the Scenic Illinois River, Lake Tenkiller or immerse yourself in a Cherokee Nation cultural experience.

Main Street and North End District

Scattered along the brick-paved sidewalks of Tahlequah Main Street, are brilliantly stocked women's boutiques, a 50-year-old family owned bakery, one-of-a kind art galleries, the best cup of coffee, a men's boutique, soup, salads, gyros, steaks, beverages and Sam & Ella's Chicken Palace!

 

A fascinating and thrilling combination, the North End brings life to Downtown Tahlequah music, dancing, art and culinary pleasures. The gracious host to most of Tahlequah's festivals, Norris Park is the heart of the North End. Here families play, throw frisbee, watch movies, eat hot dogs and gather for community events.
