Another Beloved San Antonio Restaurant, Texadelphia, to Close Its Doors This Sunday

Another Restaurant Heartbreaker in San Antonio: Texadelphia to Close

For the food lovers in San Antonio, today brings a wave of sadness as we learn that beloved cheesesteak destination, Texadelphia, will close its doors for good this Sunday, October 13. This closure marks a bittersweet end to the happy memories shared over delicious cheesesteaks and crafted bites that the diner has served since its opening.

Texadelphia has a rich history, having first opened in Austin in the early 1980s when founder Joel Stanley decided to share his Philadelphia roots by introducing the Lone Star State to mouth-watering cheesesteaks. Its success quickly led to a chain expansion across several states, delighting cheesesteak enthusiasts everywhere. However, the San Antonio location, nestled in The Strand at Huebner Oaks, is set to close following a lease expiration, with no renewal in sight.

Business Announcement: A Hard Goodbye

The announcement came via a heartfelt post on the restaurant’s Facebook page on October 9, leaving many local customers shocked. “Our last day of operation is 10/13/24, this Sunday. Our lease is up, and we have decided to not renew. Come in for a final cheesesteak this week!” the post read. A message many may have never expected to encounter, especially those who have come to cherish this convenient spot.

As the news circulated, some loyal customers took to the comment section, sharing their sorrow over the unexpected development. Words of support flooded in, with hopes that the Texadelphia chain would contemplate opening a different location in the San Antonio area in the future.

Community Reacts: A Shared Sense of Loss

Facebook user Geno Garza voiced his love for the eatery, noting, “I waited a year for this one to open when I found out they were coming to San Antonio.” It’s clear that many residents were excited about this addition to the local food scene, and the impending closure feels like a personal loss.

Another local, Lori De la Garza, echoed the sentiment by stating, “No! Such sad news. I love Texadelphia. I hope y’all reopen somewhere else in San Antonio. Austin is too far to go for my Texadelphia fix!” With only days left to enjoy those iconic sandwiches, residents are rallying to make this a grand farewell for the cherished local eatery.

A Look to the Future

Once this San Antonio location closes, cheesesteak lovers will need to hop in their cars to visit the nearest Texadelphia, which is over in Sunset Valley near Austin or even in Laredo for those looking to satisfy that Texadelphia craving. How far will you go to indulge in your favorite cheesesteak?

Bid Farewell, Not Farewell

So, if you’re in the area and haven’t visited yet, don’t wait long! Treat yourselves to that delicious Chimichanga Philly cheesesteak or whatever your favorite order might be before the doors permanently close. Let’s create a memory, one last time, at Texadelphia.

Goodbye, Texadelphia! You will be missed!
