As their second San Antonio location, the eatery hopes to gain more exposure in a downtown setting, according to Co-Owner, Lee Beekly.

“The Avenue B site just makes sense, in size, as well as in the neighborhood, with an ever-expanding urban footprint downtown, we see a lot of pet activity in the area,” said Beekly.

The popular beer garden known for its dog-friendly atmosphere will have a large dog park and plans to incorporate corporate spaces for companies to reserve for meetings and community-centered events.

“We feel positive about the community impact on this location. We will be able to offer an acre and a half on the Riverwalk for large gatherings of any type, birthdays graduations, community events, and corporate offsites,” said Beekly.
