Not sure if this was already mentioned (at least I didn't see it anywhere), but it sounds like Fox & Hound may be closed/closing.

From the F&H FB page:

As some of you may have noticed we have been closed since Saturday. The ownership and the landlord have been in tense negotiations on a new lease. Obviously things turned south. Hopefully they can play nice and we can reopen in the next few days. Thank you for your understanding

Sincerely,

Fox and Hound Management

Fox & Hound hasn't been the same lately. Dirty and dark. Used to love the place for game watching

Turn Fox & Hound back into Frank's Bar and Grill - they had the BEST homemade potato chips and cucumber dip ever!

Trackside Kolaches opened recently I heard and sold out everyday. We have made a rule to give places time to get the tweaking to operations done but wife is interested. Anyone been yet ??

Bring back the old appetizers and I would frequent more often.

This. Used to frequent the place but haven't been in almost 2 years. Definitely got dirty. The beer wasn't very cold either.

I used to go there most Thursdays for happy hour with my parents. Over the past few years they seem to have really changed up the MVP loyalty program, which kind of pissed off my dad. That, plus having more options to go in town, have led us to not having been back in over 6 months.

Bring back Interurban.

I would be down with a Turkey Urban. But also dialing back to Zarape's in the house would be better with me. In general the town rats raced at my preferred rate when FedMart was the end of things of interest on University. But COCS thinks everyone here wants it to be like a houston or dallas suburb, out of control traffic and all.

When it comes to food service, cleanliness is next to Godliness. You don't often get a second chance on that one. What I have been hearing from some of my SBOs is that some landlords are getting pretty high in the rent. This may in part be due to the rising valuations of property, but IMO you can't charge Century Square rents when you haven't updated your property, maintained your landscaping to keep it up to date, or fixed your parking lot.

I saw a couple of posts on Nextdoor that said that it was really good. I may try them out on Saturday

Looks like Athena Learning Center has closed their doors. Place is empty and leasing sign is on the front door.

Food and people at 3rd and Main are terrific. The coffee is terrible; y'all need to not use our crappy tap water in it!

Great input for them........ with Culligan at a reasonable price, it's pretty unforgivable to make coffee with tap water in this town.....looking forward to trying the place.....just no coffee

Yeah, you should reach out to them and tell them this, if you haven't already. I'm looking forward to trying it for breakfast, but wouldn't want to spoil a good time with bad coffee!

I love Wade and Mary and always want them to make it, so def reaching out. Bad (hopefully temporary) coffee aside, I like the vibe of the place.

And to give them credit, they do use our local WTB coffee.

Love WTB coffee. When you say the food was great, do you mean breakfast, lunch or dinner?
FlyRod

Breakfast.

Caprock going in at Century Square. Presumably at the location that was already a failed 24 hour ER place.

Actually heard today that the parking for the urgent care (not a ER, and therefore lower charges ) is free...

It's great to see Downtown Bryan slowly make a comeback. It's come a long way in the past 20-25 years.....
Props to all that have helped rejuvenate it.

The Village Cafe is celebrating 10 years on Friday. They were really one of the first to help support and kick off the rejuvenation of Downtown Bryan. Congrats to Kristy Petty for her vision. She risked it all and knocked it out of the park! Support local restaurants and more like this will succeed.

I stopped here this morning on the way to work and got a pulled pork and a jalapeno sausage and cheese. I really liked both of them and will go again

Interurban Eating House was the best! It was where Fox and Hound are now. We used to go there all the time when we were lucky enough to live in B/CS.

Sure looked like somebody was emptying Fox & Hound of it's furniture this afternoon. So much for temporary.
