Pflugerville restaurant steeped in history
PBK Stem & Stein serves as downtown Pflugerville's newest dining option and a tribute to a bygone era of the city's history.
According to some accounts, the original PBK Tavern operated as a speakeasy during Prohibition, serving alcohol out of the back of a downtown candy store.
"We thought it would be cool to open a restaurant to capture the feel of the original PBK," Pflugerville Mayor Jeff Coleman said.
Coleman, his wife, Shannon, and a group of seven local investors opened the new PBK Stem & Stein on Oct. 8 in downtown Pflugerville. Since opening, the restaurant has rotated its food, wine and beer menu, and added more live music.
