Revelers at much-anticipated Loop 1604 nightspot Elsewhere Too partied so hard at its Saturday grand opening that the business was forced to close Sunday and Monday to restock.

“We partied our hearts out and need a couple days to recover,” Elsewhere’s owners said in a Sunday Instagram post.

On Saturday, capacity crowds descended on Elsewhere Too, 4531 N. Loop 1604 West, to check out the 6-acre beer garden and dining spot, which features a 52-foot-tall Ferris wheel, a flower tunnel, a hedge maze and a Victorian greenhouse.

As result of the throngs, Elsewhere Too is briefly closing its doors to restock food and drink items, according to its Instagram post. It will reopen at 4 p.m. Tuesday.

“We’re taking a short breather to restock the wonder, recharge the starlight, and polish the Ferris wheel halos,” the post said.

Elsewhere Too is the successor to Elsewhere, a popular downtown nightspot located on the San Antonio River.

Elsewhere owners Terrin Fuhrmann and Nolan Ellis first announced plans to open a second location in 2022, with an initial opening planned for late 2023. However, construction delays pushed back the groundbreaking until last year.

The new location features 30 draft beers and fan-favorite boozy lemonades along with burgers and other pub grub.

Moving forward — and assuming at least a little of the grand-opening luster has dissipated — Elsewhere Too will operate 4 p.m.-midnight Monday through Thursday, 2 p.m.-midnight Friday, noon-1 a.m. Saturday and noon-10 p.m. Sundays.
