To Whom it May Concern in Alpine and the Surrounding Communities,
It is with heavy hearts and heavy regret that we must inform you that as of February, Saturday 23rd, The Saddle Club has closed it’s doors. We are terribly sorry to disappoint and inconvenience our loyal customer base, and have had an incredible ten years serving this community. We would not have been as nearly as successful as we were without the love, support, and patronage of the city of Alpine, and the Big Bend Region of West Texas.
In the wake of this transition, Stephen Wood will be following his long-time dream and passion of opening a meat and seafood market, in order to continue to proudly serve our local communities. Located in the newly renovated adobe building at 501 West Holland Avenue (directly across from The Railroad Blues), The Bearded Butcher will feature such gourmet food items as locally sourced beef, poultry, and game, fresh fish and seafood, house made sausages, cured meats, organic stocks, as well as other epicurean goodies.
We cannot wait to get this new and exiting business venture up-and-going, in order to provide the families of Big Bend with such a high-quality, valuable, and much-needed service. Our page will be debuting shortly, so please stay turned for upcoming news and announcements. We’ll see you on opening day!
