FORT WORTH, Texas — A brewery in Fort Worth’s West 7th area will close by the end of the year, but plans for a new chapter are in the works.
Bankhead Brewpub at 611 W. University Drive announced in a post on social media that its last day at its current location will be Dec. 30 after accepting an offer for the property.
“Earlier this year, we received an exceptional offer for our Fort Worth property, one that made perfect sense for our long-term plans. We accepted it, and something even bigger is coming into that space soon,” Bankhead’s post read. “But this isn’t a goodbye story — it’s a growth story. We’re already exploring new locations and are excited for what’s ahead in 2026 and beyond. To our incredible guests and employees: thank you for the love, the memories, and the loyalty. If you’ve shared a beer or a meal with us, you’ll always be part of the Bankhead family.”

Bankhead also has a location at 13090 Bee St. in Farmers Branch in addition to the original location at 3840 Main Street in Rowlett.
While known for its beer and live music, Bankhead’s food menu includes BLTA dip, which consists of bacon, spinach, sundried tomatoes, artichoke and three cheeses, Texas Twinkies, a wagyu burger, fish and chips, meatloaf, pizzas and more.
Bankhead said in their post that they will have a going-away party on Dec. 30 with live music from Latin Express.
