Exciting Changes Ahead for San Antonio’s Shops at Rivercenter
San Antonio is buzzing with excitement as the Shops at Rivercenter is gearing up for a lively transformation! After 36 years, this once-popular shopping destination is reshaping itself into a vibrant hub of entertainment and fun, and the changes are looking fantastic.
Welcome to Holey Moley!
One of the biggest highlights of this rejuvenation is the arrival of the Holey Moley Mini Golf Club, which is set to open its doors in early December. This is no ordinary mini-golf venue. Spanning an impressive 12,000 square feet, Holey Moley offers a completely reimagined experience that’s miles away from the simple putt-putt courses we remember from our childhood. With three uniquely designed courses boasting 27 holes, two karaoke rooms, and a stunning riverside patio, Holey Moley promises a fantastic outing for families, friends, or anyone looking to have a good time.
In a clever nod to nostalgia and the social media craze, the decor will include retro elements and eye-catching neon signs. The Caddyshack bar and restaurant, inspired by the classic 1980 film starring Chevy Chase, will complement the fun atmosphere. While details are still under wraps, expect an impressive cocktail menu featuring boozy slushies alongside non-alcoholic options. Food will also be a highlight, with offerings described as “from-scratch Americana-inspired fare with a Texas twist,” which means tasty pizzas, burgers, and even Tex-Mex specialties!
Fun for Everyone
Michael Schreibe, Funlab’s Global CEO, shares the excitement, stating, “Holey Moley is more than just a mini golf course – it’s an unforgettable adventure.” Whether you’re a seasoned fan of the ‘80s and ‘90s or exploring these vibes for the first time, Holey Moley is designed to whisk you away from the digital era and plunge you into a world of friendly competition and unfiltered fun!
A Renewed Shopping Experience
This addition fits perfectly into the strategy by Ashkenazy Acquisition Corp. to breathe new life into the Shops at Rivercenter. Feeling a sense of community and entertainment comes first! Over the past two years, this initiative has led to some exciting new arrivals in the area. Renowned Spanish jamón provider Enrique Tomas Experience and the Instagram-famous Sugar Factory American Brasserie have already made their mark, and there is even more on the way!
Food enthusiasts can look forward to chef Jason Dady revamping the food court with an innovative project called Mexico Ceaty, which will blend culinary delights and artistic flair. Entrepreneur Jorge Cueva, better known as Mr. Tempo, is also planning to open the King & Queen Cantina within the mall, further diversifying the culinary scene!
Mark Your Calendars!
Although an official opening date for Holey Moley hasn’t been firmly established, eager fans can pre-book visits as soon as December 6! Anyone interested in checking out this thrilling new experience should keep an eye on holeymoley.com for more information and booking links.
Hello Kitty is Back!
But wait, there’s more! San Antonio is also welcoming back the beloved Hello Kitty Cafe Truck on Saturday, October 26, at North Star Mall. This cute truck will be serving snacks and exclusive merchandise to fans of all ages as part of the franchise’s 50th anniversary celebration! Expect to find limited-edition items with that shiny ‘50’ logo, including an iridescent tote bag and cookie sets boasting pastel designs.
Make sure to arrive early, as last time the lines were quite long! Whether you’re snacking on rainbow macarons or taking home a bright pink tote bag decorated with delightful desserts, there’s no doubt this pop-up event will be a great time for everyone!
So, if you’re in San Antonio, get ready for a season filled with excitement as the Shops at Rivercenter and its surroundings grow into a lively destination bursting with entertainment, fine food, and unforgettable memories!
