A liquor license placard for Hill Country Summer Barbecue at the National Building Museum says:
“New “C” Tavern with 250 seats and a Total Occupancy Load of 499. Applicant has requested a Summer Garden endorsement and Entertainment Endorsement to include Dancing.”
Hours are listed as Sunday through Saturday 12 pm – 11 pm. In previous years (2013/2014) the set up was described as:
“The immensely popular outdoor experience will open Thursday, May 1 and run through Labor Day weekend. In addition to award-winning Texas-style barbecue and ice-cold Shiner beers, the Backyard Barbecue will offer live music from local and touring artists.”
I assume they’ll aim to open May-Labor Day again – updates when they issue their full press release.
