SAN ANTONIO – There’s always something to do in San Antonio and soon there will be a new entertainment venue - Chicken N Pickle.

The new hot spot will feature a full-service restaurant, a rooftop bar, lawn games and 6 indoor and 5 outdoor pickleball courts. It’s expected to be fully open by mid-April at 5215 UTSA Boulevard, according to a news release.

Pickleball is a hybrid of tennis, badminton and table tennis (or ping pong). It’s played with paddles and is considered to be a good sport for “all ages and skill levels," according to the USAPA.

The news release describes pickleball as “most popularly played as doubles on a court half the size of a tennis court with an oversized ping pong paddle and a ball similar to a wiffle ball.”

“We cannot wait to bring the Chicken N Pickle fun to San Antonio,” said founder Dave Johnson. “We are confident people will fall in love with our delicious, wood-fired rotisserie chicken, a cold beverage, and some friendly competition on the pickleball courts.”
