What Happened to The Brick Tavern After Bar Rescue? (Sachse, TX)

The Brick Tavern appeared on Bar Rescue season 8, episode 15, "Personal Assistant, Professional Failure," which aired April 3, 2022, at 7340 S State Hwy 78 in Sachse, Texas; a fan recap source places the filming in November 2021. Per Bar Rescue's own episode description, the bar had seen moderate success but was held back by a breakdown in management and trust between the owner and the personal assistant she had put in charge of running it. As part of the on-air rescue, Jon Taffer renamed the business Char Bar and BBQ; a fan recap source reported the relaunched bar held a soft opening on November 19, 2021 and a grand opening the following day.

A fan recap site devoted to tracking the bar's post-show status carried a header marking the business open and, in its main article text, formally last updated March 9, 2023, reported that Char Bar and BBQ was still open and serving customers in Sachse. That same page's comment section included unattributed, undated reader remarks suggesting the property had since been sold to new owners, but those comments carry no named author or verifiable date and are not treated as a source for this record. Google Places, checked as part across the show on September 8, 2026, lists the location's business status as permanently closed, which conflicts with the recap page's 2023 account of ongoing operation under the Char Bar and BBQ name.

No website, current social-media post, or dated review confirming either an open or closed status in 2026 was found within the single search performed for this record, and the gap between the 2023 open account and the 2026 permanently-closed flag could not be resolved with the evidence available. Status is accordingly recorded as unknown pending further, dedicated research. The property's coordinates and street address are drawn from the Google Places record supplied with the show; no discrepancy with that location was identified.
