About 3 years after a military themed sports bar and restaurant announced a Lubbock location, it officially opened on Wednesday, according to a company news release.
Bombshells Restaurant & Bar, 6415 TX-327 Spur, is a military-themed restaurant and bar owned by RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. Travis Reese designed the concept after his grandfather, who flew more than 100 missions during World War II. The inspiration can be seen throughout the space’s design, menu and staff’s uniforms.
The company offers a 20% discount on meals and drinks for veterans and active service members.
Lubbock’s location touts a 3,200 sq. ft. covered patio and 110 employees. The location also has a 17.5-foot wide video wall, 90 65-inch high-definition TVs, and 32-inch high-def TVs in the booths.
“Elevate your game-watching at Lubbock’s newest sports hub,” said Rafael Pedraza, Director of Operations, Bombshells. “Our state-of-the-art venue will redefine how Texas Tech fans and our local friends in the military and veterans catch the action with unparalleled viewing and an electrifying atmosphere. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or a casual enthusiast, we promise an unmatched viewing experience, perfect for groups, game-day gatherings, and more.”
Some other elements Bombshells is known for includes:
The location is open between 11 a.m.-2 a.m.
This business comes just over a year after Lubbock’s Hooters, 4950 S. Loop 289, unexpectedly closed on Sunday, June 23. Hooters suddenly shut down 40 locations across the company, citing pressure from market conditions.
