Fred's Texas Café is a Fort Worth institution for burgers and beer.
There is good news and very surprising news about Fred’s Texas Café that might knock you off your feet.
Please, sit down for this.
Fred’s is closing its original location on Currie Street on Dec. 31.
If that griddle could talk.
On the surface, this is worse than losing Facebook for most of a day, but there is good news: Those righteous Fred’s burgers are only moving — to a bigger, more expansive location at 7101 Camp Bowie West Blvd., the famed Fort Worth food joint announced Thursday.
Most recently on the site of the new location was another restaurant, Buffalo West. Fred's is targeting a spring 2022 opening.
"The decision to move Fred’s is a hard one, but the right one if we want to keep making great food for great people,” Quincy Wallace, co-owner and operating partner, said in a statement. “I’m gonna miss going into that building every day like a lot of our loyal regulars.”
