While the rain continues to fall, many of us are starting to suffer cabin fever. The good news is there are some new restaurants opening around town in the upcoming months or in early 2019. Hopefully, by then, we will begin to dry out.  If this weather has you going stir crazy and you need to try something new now, check out our 2018 master list of openings.

Babe’s Chicken House – 6711 NE Loop 820, North Richland Hills

The newest location in eight years and it will be well worth the wait.  Located about 13 miles from the original Babe’s in Roanoke, the North Richland Hills restaurant will move into a 73,000-square-foot building and is expected to be joined by a Sweetie Pie’s Ribeye’s next door. The bigger location is excellent news for those that already love their chicken and mashed potatoes!

Rodeo Goat – The Sound at Cypress, Irving

The newest location for the burger joint who changed the way Ft Worth thought about burgers is just a hop, skip and jump from the mid-cities located in The Sound at Cypress, which is part of the new Cypress Waters development.

Alamo Drafthouse – 8380 Davis Boulevard, North Richland Hills

While the favorite cinema house won’t be open until Spring 2019, there is much to be excited about. Offering up a unique and innovative cinema experience at every location. Enjoy a menu that includes casual dining options, fine wine, and cold beer. Splashed with a focus on local breweries whenever possible. The theater stays true to the latest and greatest in projection technology and offers unique programming and special events you won’t find anywhere else.
