    Two dozen Dairy Queen restaurants across Texas are closing, including two locations in Dallas-Fort Worth, and the stores' furnishings are up for sale.

    Online auction website localauctions.com is currently selling the "complete contents" of 24 Dairy Queen locations to the highest bidder with the auctions closing on Thursday, February 20.

    "Multiple Dairy Queen locations are closing their doors and must liquidate the assets," the website says. "Bid on a large variety of restaurant assets and related items that need to be removed from the location."

    Included in the list is the Dairy Queen at 5441 Rufe Snow Dr. in North Richland Hills. While Google still shows the location as open, a user review on February 13 says the store was closed when they visited.

    "Went last night for ice cream and they were closed. Sad for the local community," the reviewer writes.

    One other store in North Texas is also listed: the Dairy Queen at 1509 Corsicana Highway in Hillsboro. A location in Farmers Branch, at 2421 Valwood Pkwy., is also closing.

    The remaining 22 stores are spread throughout the state, with the majority located in small towns in East Texas and the Panhandle.

    A company spokesperson told the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal that 25 restaurants across the Texas Panhandle, North Texas, and West Texas/South Plains region have closed.

    The auction closes on February 20 and items must be removed by end of the day on Sunday, February 23. Any item not removed from the shuttered restaurant will be considered forfeited, and refunds won't be granted, the website says. Equipment such as soda machines, CO2 tanks, tea brewers, and IT equipment are excluded from the auction.

    The full list of Texas Dairy Queens closing is as follows:

    • 301 N. 2nd Street, Canadian
    • 609 W. Broadway Street, Fritch
    • 1850 County Road 11, Panhandle
    • 801 E. Park Avenue, Hereford
    • 1612 Highway 70, Olton
    • 108 Chesnut Street, Idalou
    • 5441 Rufe Snow Drive, North Richland Hills
    • 1509 Corsicana Highway, Hillsboro
    • 200 Legacy Drive, Hewitt
    • 1701 W. Pecan Street, Pflugerville
    • 304 Highway 79 East, Franklin
    • 4101 Gilmer, Longview
    • 580 N. Interstate 20 E., Waskom
    • 847 E. Sabine Street, Carthage
    • 175 N. Dickinson Drive, Rusk
    • 3121 N. Street, Nacodoches
    • 202 N. Temple Drive, Diboll
    • 602 Interstate 45 S., Huntsville
    • 14421 FM 2920 Road, Tomball
    • 515 S. Washington Avenue, Cleveland
    • 24022 E. Lake Houston Parkway, Huffman
    • 104 Highway 90 East, Dayton
    • 345 Highway 105 West, Sour Lake
    • 34250 US Highway 96 South, Buna

    There are still 20 locations in the Dallas area and 15 around Fort Worth.

Cocktails feature Don Draper, a dirty martini; Punching Zombies, with clarified papaya zombie milk punch, sugar, and spirits from around the world including Batavia and Cachaca; and Egyptian Tiki, made with a gin and bourbon split base. Drinks can be paired with new menu items like pigs in a blanket or Neiman Marcus chicken salad. Drinks are $19.

    MilkShake Factory
    Milkshake and chocolate shop in Grapevine is launching a milkshake happy hour, something for those who embrace the AF lifestyle.
