The former Cattleguard Restaurant, an old-western-style wooden facade planted in front of a bundle of metal buildings in the parking lot between the Drury Inn & Suites and the Wyndham Hotel at 1010 Hwy. 6 North, just north of I-10, is being made over as a fourth location for Christian’s Tailgate. Christian’s Mazen Baltagi tells Swamplot the Energy Corridor spot is being outfitted with more than 35 beer taps and more than 50 teevees, and should be ready to open within 5 or 6 weeks. The Cattleguard Restaurant had lasted more than 20 years at the site, but shut down early this year.

Kudos to Cattleguard for making a 20-year run. But I suppose it should have been a warning sign to see a well-established restaurant resorting to Groupon to stir up business in the past few years.
I haven’t been to a Christian’s Tailgate yet, so I guess new burger opportunities await….
good burgers, but that’s about it
Will probably close within a year due to simply awful location, especially so now since the old Holiday Inn (now Wyndem?) put up their iron gate making the walk around excessive
who cares, too much of a pain to go out anywhere for lunch in the energy corridor.
Lunch??? Oh, no. This is obviously a sports bar that is aiming for the night and weekend business. Good for those of us who actually call the Energy Corridor home now.
