In-N-Out eyes new San Antonio location in red-hot UTSA development.

In-N-Out eyes new San Antonio location in red-hot UTSA development. Sep 2, 2026 | 1:30 pm Open wide, UTSA students. In-N-Out Burger is planning a fourth San Antonio location at The Merc, the $350 million mixed-use development taking shape on the Northwest Side. Alamo City locals don't need much of an introduction to the brand. The California chain opened its first San Antonio outpost in 2014. But for those with burger blinders: In-N-Out is known for its griddle patties, animal-style fries, and a "secret" menu that might as well have its own marketing team. The new outpost was revealed in new preliminary plans filed with the city. The company has not yet revealed an opening date and did not immediately return a request for a timeline. In-N-Out is the newest restaurant offering attached to The Merc, a 112-acre center anchored by multi-family housing and Park Golf, a nine-hole, par-three course outfitted with a putting punchbowl, beer garden, food trucks, and flexible green space. In June, the development announced its first hospitality tenants, including açai bowl chain Pure Green, plate lunch purveyors Hawaiian Bros. Island Grill, Canadian brunch café Pür & Simple, and Sora Sushi - a new concept from the founders of Wild Goji. According to a previous release, all of the above are on track for a 2027 opening. Eventually, the ambitious build will also include 1,600 apartments, 200,000 square feet of retail and commercial space, and outdoor amenities including pickleball and an ice house. The goal is to create a new walkable community similar to live-work developments like Austin's Domain. "Northwest San Antonio continues to be one of the most dynamic growth corridors in Texas, and The Merc is being built to meet that momentum with something more intentional," said project developer Rob Schumacher in the June release.

Sep 2, 2026 | 2:00 pm Donnie Dee, one of the Davenports frequent DJs, is no stranger to Jue Let. Still from Jue Let/ Instagram The San Antonio nightlife community is nostalgic these days. Pearl hot spot Jue Let is bringing back long-shuttered downtown bar The Davenport for a one-night pop-up on September 20. The sometimes rowdy spot ran from 2002-2007 at 200 E. Houston St., now the site of a Starbucks. Originally, owners Jackie Saha and Bruce Cooper imagined it as a quiet lounge similar to their Houston concept of the same name, but the open downstairs space has all the right makings of a dance club. The decor was of its time with saturated colors and a few abstracts from local artists on the wall, but the vibe was more determined by the faithful who showed up on Wednesday nights. It soon became the epicenter of San Antonio's electronic and hip-hop scene, hosting DJs who defined the era like Theory of Everything, DJ Jester the Filipino Fist, and Donnie Dee. But the fun wasn't as embraced by the club's landlords. The Davenport closed its New Year's Eve party in 2006 after an extended battle between Cooper and Saha and building owners Majestic Development Company, who reportedly used a lease loophole to force the couple out. "They wanted us to change our clientele, either not have music, or definitely not do music the way we're doing it," Cooper told the San Antonio Current at the time. "Our employees had to dress to their satisfaction. We would have had to redecorate the bar, again to their satisfaction. They had a vision for it that didn't conform to what it was. So they saw this as their opportunity to make us conform or bring in somebody who would." Almost two decades removed from the disappointing end, Jue Let is looking to bring back some of the magic. According to a release, the menu will be a combination of the club's classics with a few new drinks that riff on Davenport favorites. One of the original DJs will also be making a return, but the bar is keeping the name hush-hush for now. San Antonians in the mood to reminisce about hazy party weekends can also head to Southtown's Gimme Gimme on September 3. Former proprietor Jeret Peña is bringing back The Brooklynite for a one-night pop-up with many of its former bartenders. And if elder Millennials and Gen Xers need some inspiration on just what "going out" shirt to wear to the Davenport event, there's a Facebook group full of pre-iPhone shots that surely wound up on Friendster.

In-N-Out sued for religious discrimination, wrongful termination.

In-N-Out sued for religious discrimination, wrongful termination. In-N-Out Sued YOU'RE NOT AS CHRISTIAN AS YOU SAY YOU ARE!!! Published August 10, 2026 1:00 AM PDT In-N-Out is being grilled with a religious discrimination lawsuit... a former cook says the company treated her differently and ultimately fired her after she asked for a different work schedule due to her Christian beliefs. According to the suit, obtained by TMZ, Arianna Rodriguez said she had been working as a cook for the burger chain's Long Beach, CA location for nearly 5 years without issues with a schedule that allowed her to attend church on Sundays. She claims this wasn't an issue until a new manager started in October. She alleges her Sunday availability then became a "recurring source of workplace conflict" and she got her first-ever write-up during this time.

In-N-Out just made one of LA's biggest office deals this year.

In-N-Out just made one of LA's biggest office deals this year. Every few months another headline tells you California is bleeding companies to Texas and Tennessee. Sometimes it's true, although the reasons vary wildly. This is quite the opposite. In-N-Out just leased an entire 98,000 square foot office building at San Dimas Corporate Park in LA County, about ten miles from the Baldwin Park drive-thru where the company was founded in 1948. It's the third-largest office lease signed in LA County over the past year. In-N-Out is moving its headquarters back to LA from Orange County, closing the loop on a relocation the company announced roughly a year ago and plans to fully complete by 2029. Here's the twist that makes this worth paying attention to instead of just smiling at. In-N-Out is simultaneously opening a roughly 100,000 square foot office near Nashville to support its eastward expansion into the Southeast. Read a headline about that piece alone and you'd write "In-N-Out plants flag in Tennessee, California loses again." Read the whole story and it's the opposite. In-N-Out isn't leaving. It's growing in two directions at once, doubling down on its Southern California roots while it expands somewhere new. That's not flight. That's a company big enough to do both. The timing matters too. This lease landed during one of the roughest stretches the LA office market has seen, tenants have given back about 1.9 million more square feet than they've leased over the past year, according to CoStar. A company making a generational, multi-decade real estate bet on LA County in the middle of that environment is a signal worth more than the vacancy stat itself. This fits a pattern CBRE highlighted in its 2026 headquarters relocation research. Companies relocating within the same metro areas rather than leaving it are rising nationally as businesses rethink how much space they actually need in a hybrid world. Locally, you can see it everywhere if you're watching for it. Targus relocated its Anaheim headquarters (literally across the street) downsizing its office footprint from 200,000 square feet to 84,000 while upgrading its warehouse operations with taller ceilings and tighter racking to store more product in less space. UST just opened a new headquarters office in Aliso Viejo. Global law firm Goodwin is relocating its downtown LA office to the Arts District while simultaneously opening a new San Diego office this summer. Irvine-based Connected Dealer Services just relocated to a bigger headquarters in the same city. None of these companies are leaving Southern California. They're all restructuring how much space they use and where within the region they use it, smaller, smarter, better located, more efficient. That's a fundamentally different story than the one the interstate relocation headlines tell, and it's the one that actually matters if you're trying to understand what's happening to the office market you occupy. If you're a founder or executive evaluating your own footprint this year, the real question isn't whether to stay in Southern California. Almost nobody credible is asking that question. The real question is whether your current space still matches how your company actually operates, and whether a smarter intrametro move, like Targus, like In-N-Out, like Goodwin, could free up capital or improve your operations without uprooting your team or your client relationships.
