Tommy Bahama, a pioneer of the combined restaurant-retail experience, opened a new Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar at The Shops at La Cantera in San Antonio. Opened on February 21st, this is the first Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar in Texas.
The 7,500 square foot open floor plan features a retail store alongside the restaurant, bar and outdoor patio. The retail store displays an impressive assortment of Tommy Bahama men’s and women’s sportswear, swimwear, accessories, and home décor items. The restaurant and bar offer indoor and outdoor dining options from the Marlin Bar’s menu of shareable food and cocktails. Clean modern interiors are accented by tropical print wallpaper and custom artwork.
“We are excited to open the Marlin Bar at The Shops at La Cantera and present a new Tommy Bahama experience to the San Antonio market,” said Doug Wood, CEO of Tommy Bahama in a statement. “The Marlin Bar concept is one of the ways Tommy Bahama is different from other lifestyle brands. We’ve had a retail store in La Cantera for almost 20 years, and by adding our food and beverage along with a beautiful new retail store, we’re creating a new way for our guests to enjoy the full Tommy Bahama shopping and dining experience.”
The existing Tommy Bahama retail store will be closed and moved to be part of the Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar. This new location is a bridge between the retail and restaurant areas of La Cantera, that will attract both shoppers and diners with indoor and patio dining, an outdoor fireplace, and a fun-filled bar alongside the retail store.
The Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar features a new style of service–orders are placed at the bar, then the food and drinks are delivered by servers to the table. This streamlined approach appeals to a more casual diner while still providing guests with the signature Tommy Bahama experience conveniently located in The Shops at La Cantera.
The menu offers fresh, locally sourced guest favorites & signature dishes, including Tommy Bahama’s Coconut Shrimp, Blackened Mahi Mahi or Filet Mignon Tacos, All American Beef or “Nashville” Hot Chicken Sliders, Ahi Poke Bowl, salads, sandwiches and Pina Colada Cake or Key Lime Pie for dessert. The full bar offers signature cocktails, Island Rum drinks, martinis, wine, beer and Zero Proof Cocktails. The Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar is open from 11am-10 pm daily with Island Time/Happy Hour 3-6 pm and live music from 5-9 daily and 12-4 on Saturday and Sunday. For more details on hours see below. Online ordering is also available for take-out or delivery on all menu items.

In addition to the new Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar at The Shops at La Cantera, there is also a Tommy Bahama Restaurant, Bar & Store at Legacy West in Plano and at The Woodlands.
