American food and drink restaurant Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar has announced an opening date for its new Stafford restaurant.

Lazy Dog is eyeing a June opening for its Stafford restaurant at 12223 Southwest Freeway, Stafford, restaurant officials announced on April 18.

“We are thrilled to soon be serving guests for the first time in Stafford,” said Chris Simms, founder and CEO of Lazy Dog Restaurants, in the announcement. “With 200 new positions available, we are looking forward to building a team of exceptionally friendly and talented people that will expand our Lazy Dog family.”

Designed to feel like a Rocky Mountain Wyoming escape, Lazy Dog’s interior will be complete with lodge-inspired furnishings, including fireplaces, ledge stone, a chandelier crafted from Aspen logs and artwork reminiscent of the Cowboy State. An outdoor patio will be built around a cozy fire pit and lounge area, according to the announcement.
