North Central San Antonio bar Rod Dog’s Saloon will reopen Saturday, May 1 after a lengthy renovation brought on by a 2019 blaze.

The space has undergone massive construction, and will celebrate with a grand reopening party that will feature a pool tournament, darts, drink specials and eats from local chef Will Nichols of Lil Joe’s Smoked Wings.

The neighborhood haunt near McArthur Park was in operation for nearly 25 years, but has remained shuttered after an October 2019 fire.

The grand reopening event will begin at 6 p.m.
