In a Jan. 30 Instagram post, CEO William McLucas called it a “temporary” closure and said he is working to reopen at the Summer Street site.
The details
The brewery, located at 2101 Summer St., Houston, did not open during usual business hours Jan. 26. The lockout notice was from Silver Street Holdings, the landlord.
According to the lockout notice, Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company was locked out of its premises due to delinquent rent payments.
The notice states:
“Provided Tenant pays the entire amount of delinquent rent via certified check or money order, a new key to the premises may be obtained Monday through Friday, during the business hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.”
Community Impact has reached out to Sawyer Yards for comment.
What’s next?
McLucas said he is navigating challenges amid business being “temporarily halted,” expressing gratitude to employees and supporters in a Jan. 30 Instagram post.
McLucas said despite the temporary halt in business due to the closure, efforts are underway to settle the financial commitment swiftly and return to serving customers.
The exact date of resuming service was not provided in the statement.
“As I work day and night with our legal team and investors, please be assured that Buff Brew will return to serving the best craft beer in Houston in the very near future,” McLucas said in the statement.
