    The post-pandemic retail comeback continues at Southlake Town Square, with a slew of new openings happening through the end of 2022.

    These include not just stores but those all-important, modern "brand experiences," where shoppers "are invited to connect in person with their favorite brands, products and experiences," according to a release. They include a couple of restaurants making local debuts, too.

    Here's a rundown of what's coming soon, where, and when.

    Stores

    HeyDay: Offering "a personalized skincare experience along with products ranging from cleansers to exfoliants, as well as moisturizers and sunscreens," they say, HeyDay is debuting its second location in Texas (behind one in Dallas' Knox-Henderson area opening this summer). It'll be a 2,329-square-foot store between Athleta and Fabletics on State Street, opening this fall.

    Brandy Melville: New to the area, this European clothing and fashion accessories brand will make its DFW debut at Southlake Town Square this summer. It's going into a 2,200-square-foot space between Anthropologie and Sephora on Grand Avenue West. "The 'it' brand is popular with young women for its cool, casual style," they say.

    Nike: Opening to offer "a brand experience directly to the Southlake customer," they say. Located on Grand Avenue between Bath and Body Works and Victoria’s Secret, it's expected to open this fall.

    Lululemon: Not brand new to the Town Square, but a bigger, grander location. The new 7,000-square-foot store, near Tesla and Apple on Grand Avenue, will be known as a flagship. Lululemon carries high-performance athletic apparel and accessories; it's expected to open in time for back-to-school shopping.

    YETI: The Texas-based premium outdoor brand will fill Lululemon’s current space between Travis Mathew and Peloton. It'll be be YETI’s second location in DFW and the first in Tarrant County and is expected to open before the end of the year.

    Aerie: Popular clothing store specializing in athleisure, swim, and undergarments "at the crossroads of comfort and style." Opening a new location on Grand Avenue next to Starbucks before the end of the year.

    Restaurants

    Ferah Tex-Med: This restaurant does modern Mediterranean cuisine with a Texas twist, and is expected to open in June on Carroll Avenue, next to Nothing Bundt Cakes. The first local Ferah opened in Garland's Firewheel Town Center in 2019; read more about what to expect here.

    Nikko: The restaurant specializing in sushi and Asian cuisine is scheduled to open in August on Southlake Boulevard, next to Trader Joe’s.

    They join Stella Trattoria, a new Italian restaurant that opened in April on State Street, across from Market by Macy’s, as well as EVO Entertainment, the 68,733-square-foot entertainment and dining destination that opened in March in a former movie theater.

    “Southlake Town Square continues to be a top shopping destination in Dallas-Fort Worth, one that attracts top brands through our careful selection and placement of high-quality retail options that bring shoppers back again and again,” said Jason Kasal, vice president and senior leasing director with Kite Realty Group, in a statement. “2022 is already seeing a flurry of activity, setting the stage for another incredible year of highly sought-after brands opening their doors at Town Square.”

    Spa Castle Korean bathhouse in Carrollton reopens after renovation

    An Asian spa is about to celebrate a grand reopening: Spa Castle Texas, located in Carrollton at 1020 Raiford Rd., will re-open on January 1, 2026, following a multi-million-dollar renovation.

    Established in 2012 as a retreat combining traditional Korean bathhouse culture with modern resort amenities, the facility closed in late July with a plan to bring refreshed pools, enhanced saunas, modernized locker rooms, and hydrotherapy systems.

    The renovation was designed to elevate performance, reliability, and the guest experience, while staying true to its Korean “jjimjilbang” roots.

    A jjimjilbang is a large, 24-hour Korean public bathhouse and spa featuring gender-segregated wet areas with hot tubs and saunas, plus unisex zones with themed dry saunas like clay and ice rooms. Some also have snack bars, sleeping areas, and entertainment options like TV lounges or PC rooms. In Korea, it functions an affordable destination for families and a cultural hub for relaxation, socializing, and wellness.

    Dallas has not only Spa Castle but also King Spa, a similar facility that opened in 2008 on Royal Lane in Dallas' Koreatown district. There is also a Spa Castle in New York.

    Highlights of Spa Castle's renovation in Dallas include:

    • Re-Engineered Hydrotherapy Experience: Upgrades to indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, and hydrotherapy systems to deliver a more authentic Korean bathhouse experience.
    • Reimagined food and beverage menus featuring traditional Korean street food, barbecue, and beverages.

    A day pass is $65 for adults on weekdays and $80 on weekends; for 17 and under, it's $45.

    Phase II
    The re-opening marks the completion of Phase I of Spa Castle’s renovation.

    Phase II, slated for spring 2026, will include upgrades to the on-site boutique hotel and the expansive 8,000-square-foot banquet and event space, to position Spa Castle as a destination for weddings, corporate retreats, and special events.
