Dos Amigos to reopen as multi event venue under new management
Dos Amigos, long a West Texas icon, will reopen next month under new management after months of renovation into a multi event venue and patio bar. The reborn site adds a wider stage with canopy, eight bars, new bathrooms, balconies, a 30 tap beer garden, and segregated event spaces to host multiple gatherings without changing the bar’s rustic character. Original owner Ronnie Lewis built it in 1982 and praised the updates while Bubba Saulsbury of Bubba Properties LLC notes the aim of more room and shorter lines for big and small events.
