H-E-B will open in its second store in the Dripping Springs area on July 5.

The buildup

Texas grocery retailer H-E-B submitted plans to build a more 100,000-square-foot store in March 2021 at the former site of the Nutty Brown Cafe & Amphitheatre. H-E-B purchased the 65-acre property located at 12225 W. Hwy 290, Austin, in 2015.

The details

The new H-E-B is designed to honor the historic amphitheater by showcasing memorabilia from the landmark, such as the red brick from the Nutty Brown food oven, according to a previous H-E-B press release. The store will also include a mural, featuring photography from the amphitheater.


The location will include a deli, bakery, flower section, pharmacy and more. Learn more here.
