A luxury development on San Antonio’s Northwest Side is adding some neighborhood charm to its mix.

Éilan has announced a new venue, George’s Keep, which will occupy 3,027 square feet of retail space along the Terrace level of the development. That figure includes 1,500 square feet of exterior space that will overlook Éilan’s Piazza and the dancing fountains.

George’s Keep is the latest creation from Steve Mahoney, who also owns the Blue Box Bar at Pearl and the Green Lantern in the Stone Oak area on the city’s far North Central Side.

“We want George’s Keep to become the neighborhood bar for northwest San Antonio, and also be a destination for Éilan’s office tenants, residents and hotel guests,” explains Mahoney. “Éilan is definitely somewhere we want to be and we’re excited to be in the first wave of retail development at the property.”

The design of George’s Keep will feature a mix of European and art-deco influences. It will be an upscale, intimate venue, with some more laid back features of a neighborhood watering hole. The venue’s branded umbrellas, for example, will be the only signage identifying the bar.

George’s Keep is scheduled to open this coming January.

Designed with the look and feel of a Tuscan village in mind, Éilan spans 120 acres at Loop 1604 and La Cantera Boulevard, just a few miles north of the Loop 1604/Interstate Highway 10 intersection. The project features two office complexes, 539 multifamily units, a 165-room upscale hotel and spa, and 34,382 square feet of retail space.

George’s Keep joins Piatti, which will open at Éilan on Oct. 22. It will be the second Piatti in San Antonio — making the Alamo City the only market within the San Rafael, Calif.-based chain to have two restaurants.
