The Box Street Social is aiming to have the company's first brick-and-mortar, Box Street All Day, open at Hemisfair before the end of the year. 

After a pandemic-related slowdown, Box St. All Day is ready to open in Hemisfair. The business, which started as popular food truck and catering service in 2015, has grown into a full-scale restaurant in the heart of downtown San Antonio. 

Box St. All Day will welcome its inaugural guests on Thursday, December 16, from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., according to social media announcements. Owners Edward Garcia and Daniel Treviño are accepting bookings on OpenTable. Times are still available as of this write. 

"We can’t wait to brunch it up with you," the post says.

Chef-owner Garcia previously told MySA the restaurant will offer brunch all day, joking that his restaurant would be the perfect spot for a "third or fourth date." He described the space at The '68, a mixed-use development centered around the Tower of the Americas, as being "coastal" with indoor and outdoor seating.

The Instagram-worthy interior designed by Carolina Garcia-Bowman features fresh pops of pink, plenty of greenery, rattan pendant lighting, and a few selfie opportunities like an "It's all good baby, baby" wall and a neon light fixture. The patio, which boasts views of the tower, is canopied with luxe silky pink umbrellas for a classic touch.
