Joys of Joplin Dining

Dining out is always a delicious adventure in Joplin with plenty of one-of-a-kind restaurants for groups to pick from

When you’re the hub of where four states (Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri) come together, Joplin, or JOMO as locals lovingly call it, offers more than its fair share of fun things to do. And that goes for its dining scene too. With some 200 restaurants to choose from, Joplin aims to satisfy all the culinary cravings diners are searching for. Surrounded by a vineyard, mature trees and a tranquil pond, Christine’s Vineyard, just 15 minutes north of downtown Joplin, offers a lovely setting to enjoy a glass of wine. Not far away and located in an equally stunning setting, Keltoi Winery offers an extensive selection of its wines. When the temps drop, head inside to The Cottage , which features a fireplace that pairs perfectly with their gluhwein. Part of the Ozark Mountain Wine Trail , both wineries are popular with roving food trucks. Prefer to pair your food with a cultural experience? Head to the Joplin History & Mineral Museum, two mining industry-centric museums with historical exhibits on town life and mineral collections, or the new, state-of-the-art Cornell Complex, home to Spiva Center for the Arts. Visit Joplin can assist with coordinating delicious catering options, including sophisticated yet affordable fare from Red Onion Café and Mythos Greek Kuzina, for both spaces.
