Last week, CRAFT Restaurant & Beer Market officially opened its first U.S. location in the Preston Center at 5974 W. Northwest Hwy at Kate St. in the high traffic commercial district in North Dallas in Texas. The 10,500 square foot location also includes a 5250 square foot rooftop patio, with a full bar, booth seating and a games area, providing an atmosphere for both casual gatherings and special celebrations. CRAFT’s expansion into Texas marks a major milestone for the brand as it brings its community-driven hospitality model to the U.S. market. “Dallas is an exciting market for us, and opening here represents an important next step for the brand,” said founder PJ L’Heureux. “We’ve created a space that’s designed to be versatile and welcoming–whether it’s a quick lunch, rooftop brunch, or a large group celebration.” Founded in Calgary in 2011, CRAFT Restaurant & Beer Market is a premium casual dining concept known for its chef-driven menu, extensive craft beer selection and vibrant social atmosphere. The chain presently operates nine locations in Canada, in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.
