How Hurtado reached Front Street
The Arlington restaurant at 205 E. Front St. is Hurtado’s first permanent location. Its path from a brewery pop-up to a former railroad station explains why this address is central to the Hurtado story.
Brewery pop-ups
Brandon and Hannah Hurtado began serving barbecue at brewery events across Arlington, Denton and Fort Worth.
Division Brewing food truck
After the pop-ups, they opened a Saturday lunch truck at Division Brewing in Downtown Arlington and soon expanded its hours.
The Front Street restaurant
The first permanent Hurtado opened in a roughly 120-year-old former railroad station. Early pandemic restrictions pushed ordering online.
The Front Street restaurant is separate from Hurtado’s Globe Life Field concession, so check the location before using this page’s menu prices. Read Hurtado’s history or the Arlington location details.
