Texas Roadhouse, an American steakhouse chain, has announced the opening of a new restaurant in New Braunfels.

   According to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, construction of the brand new Texas Roadhouse should begin Feb. 1, 2024. If everything goes smoothly, construction should be completed by Sep. 30. Its location, 3206 IH 35 S New Braunfels, will be right down the road from the popular shopping center, Creekside Town Center. 

   According to an article by San Antonio Express News, construction will cost an estimated $2 million. This cost will include a new sports counter that will serve signature drinks. The location will also serve classic Texas style steak, ribs, chicken, burgers, and more.

   Many local New Braunfels residents are looking forward to this new addition to 

their city.

   “My family and I absolutely love Texas Roadhouse, but we have to travel so far to get it,” Canyon High School student Jasmine Martinez said. “We are excited for this new build.”

   The nearest Texas Roadhouse’s are located in San Antonio and San Marcos, so a new one in New Braunfels offers a nice middle ground for those in the Spring Branch, Schertz, Bulverde, and of course the New Braunfels area.
