FORT WORTH (WBAP/KLIF)- Construction has begun on the popular laid-back restaurant and backyard bar, Truck Yard, at Alliance Town Center, the 900-acre master-planned community in far north Fort Worth.
Alliance Texas will be Truck Yards fifth location to open. Other locations are open in Dallas, The Colony and Houston
Truck Yard will offer a relaxed environment for guests to unwind with live music, ample space to gather, a daily rotation of popular food trucks and full bar, and will feature a dazzling 38-foot, fully operational Ferris wheel. Just in time for cool fall weather, Truck Yard is scheduled to open in fall 2021.
Spread across two acres, spacious patios and an expansive indoor area will provide guests with a landing space for any occasion, including dinner, drinks, lunch, brunch, happy hour and everything in between.
Mark Miller Senior Vice President of retail for developer Hillwood says it’s not just another opportunity for jobs, it also brings a new wave of entertainment to the growing area.
“Truck Yard not only expands our dining and entertainment options at Alliance Town Center but also brings a laid-back atmosphere directly to the heart of AllianceTexas,” said Miller. “Unlike anything currently available in Tarrant County, the Ferris wheel, live music set up, ample gaming options and beer hall vibes up the ‘fun factor’ for every guest.”
In addition to the Ferris wheel, Truck Yard will also feature several vintage National Highway Rest Stop ramadas, made of “up-cycled” materials and rustic treasures plucked straight from Hillwood’s AllianceTexas ranches. Truck Yard will be open 364 days a year and will feature varying local food trucks daily, further diversifying the medley of culinary experiences available at Alliance Town Center.
“With construction now underway, we are one step closer to bringing Texas patio culture to AllianceTexas,’” said Jason Boso, owner and CEO of Brainstorm Shelter, the dynamic company behind popular eateries such as Twisted Root Burger, Tacos & Avocados and the three other Truck Yards in Dallas, The Colony and Houston. “This location will have a magnetic, Fort Worth honkytonk beer hall ambiance, featuring the largest amount of interior space offered by any of our locations. Just in time for cooler weather, the West Texas Pole Barn will keep the fun going year-round.”
With the Plan B Group serving as designer and Gilmon Fox as general contractor, the new venue will feature extended hours, adding fresh nightlife options in north Fort Worth just in time to enjoy a beautiful Texas fall.
