The award-winning Shady’s Burgers & Brewhaha, a family-friendly neighborhood restaurant and bar, will celebrate ten years on April 1. The Best Burger in Dallas winner, according to the Dallas Observer’s Best of 2022, opened in 2013 in the Canyon Creek neighborhood of Richardson, Texas. Then, in 2015, a second Shady’s location opened in Richardson’s Lake Highlands. Both casual dining restaurants are still neighborhood favorites and Dallas destinations for many burger lovers.

Five neighborhood friends became business partners when they decided one evening to come together to give families, friends and neighbors a unique place to gather while serving scratch kitchen favorites, local beers and the best margaritas in town.

“We set out 10 years ago to build a neighborhood place with a great patio that served a variety of fresh dishes and cold beverages. We are excited to reach this milestone and look forward to another ten,” said Shady’s partner Don Bouvier.

Shady’s will kick of the anniversary weekend Friday, March 31 at 3:00 pm with a continuous Happy Hour that will run through Sunday evening. In addition, Shady’s will debut their new light lager, Slim Shady’s, created by the Oak Highlands Brewery specifically for Shady’s in honor of the ten-year anniversary. “We are excited to introduce this new, flavorful, namesake beer to our customers and friends,” said Bouvier. “We know our guests are going to love it as much as we do.”

Both Shady’s locations will celebrate all weekend long with giveaways, drawings, new merchandise, music and more. “We invite all our customers and friends to come out and celebrate with us by raising a glass to ten years,” said partner Greg Cooney. “The five partners have a lot to be thankful for, including our supportive families, stakeholders and the entire Shady’s team! We love to serve and we love our guests. They’ve become our Shady friends.”

CCBC Enterprises is the parent company of Shady’s Burgers & Brewhaha and The Fifth Fireside Patio & Bar. The three restaurants are casual dining restaurants and bars with a focus on becoming neighborhood destinations that serve scratch food, local beers and cocktails.
