In this edition of dining news around Fort Worth, there are a few closures in the categories of Irish pub, breakfast, and burgers. But there's also an opening or two, a re-opening, and some new meal times — dinner, brunch — being introduced by favorite local restaurants. Chin up.

Here's what's happening in Fort Worth restaurant news:

Dublin Square, a bar just off I-35 in the Fossil Creek area, closed on March 29 after nearly 2 decades. Owners Mike and Sheri Hudgins-Muller said that, "for 19 years, Dublin Square Fort Worth has been more than just a pub—it’s been our family’s legacy, our home, and a gathering place for so many of you. We are profoundly grateful to each and every one of you who chose to make Dublin Square part of your lives. We’ve always stayed true to what matters most: a warm welcome, good service, great food, cherished friendships, and an honest pint."

Another Broken Egg Cafe has closed its location in Southlake after eight-plus years. There's still a page dedicated to the location on the company's website, but its hours are marked as PERMANENTLY CLOSED. Located at 410 W. Southlake Blvd. # 160, this was the chain's first location in Texas which opened in October 2016. The locations in Dallas and The Colony are still open.

Burger Extreme, a family-owned burger joint in Arlington, has closed after 12 years. According to a post from the owners, "we've tried everything in our power to keep our doors open, from adjusting our menus to streamlining our operations, but unfortunately, the current economic climate has made it impossible for us to continue. .. As many of you know, we've faced some tough health challenges lately, and we've come to realize that it's time for us to prioritize our well-being. We're heartbroken to admit that this chapter of our lives has come to a close, but we're also hopeful that many more exciting chapters are yet to come."

Pinstack has opened its latest location, adjacent to Circle T Ranch on Parish Lane and Highway 170 in Westlake. According to a release, it's the largest Pinstack in the U.S. Besides bowling, Pinstack has laser tag, bumper cars, ropes courses, rock climbing, and hundreds of video games and simulator technology. The Westlake location also has a restaurant and a bar dubbed "The Bowl Bar," with 24 beers and 12 wines on tap.

Dayne's Craft Barbecue is opening for dinner on weekend nights, beginning April 11. On Fridays and Saturdays, they'll be open from 7 am-8 pm. "It’s been our plan to eventually open in the evenings, so we’re sticking to it and answering the demand from our community," the restaurant says. "We’ve worked really hard to make our food more available for y’all, and we’ll continue doing that as we entertain the idea of adding Sunday or Thursday to the lineup as well."

Cane Rosso in Arlington has reopened after getting hit hard on March 4 by a storm that may have been a tornado which blew their ceiling off. Such is the risk when you do a cool thing and repurpose an old building — in this case the former Joe’s Radiator Service, founded in 1963. "These past 10 days have been nothing short of crazy since that storm came through and knocked us down but w're back in business," they said.
