Bennigan's adding Texas unit

January 3, 2013

Bennigan's Franchising Company announced today that a new location has opened in Fort Worth, Texas. Located at 4646 S.W. Loop 820, at the intersection of I-20 and Hulen St., the new restaurant features the brand's recent remodel additions, including a bar and an outside patio. This opening marks the company's seventh restaurant in Texas.

"It was always my dream to own a Bennigan's," said Sunny Shaikh, Bennigan's Fort Worth franchisee. "The people of Fort Worth were missing the iconic Irish brand they remembered from the 90s, and I am excited and humbled to be the one to bring this legendary brand back."

The new Fort Worth Bennigan's will celebrate its opening with a grand opening party on Jan. 9. Radio station, 105.3 The Fan, will broadcast there from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m., and a ribbon cutting ceremony will take place at 4:30 p.m. To celebrate the grand opening, guests will enjoy food and drink specials and have the chance to win gift cards and prizes from drawings throughout the night.
