"My husband Dick and I poured ourselves into Billy Miner’s and we have been so thankful for the support of Fort Worth and Sundance Square,” said Peggy McMullin. “Since my husband passed away, I have been considering the right time to retire. I am ready to leave the restaurant business and slow down.”

Billy Miner’s Saloon opened in downtown Fort Worth even before the 35-block development that would become Sundance Square was revitalized. The restaurant has become a landmark over the past 27 years.

Dick McMullin was a visionary, forecasting and implementing offerings such as free WiFi long before it was common.

“We are proud that Billy Miner’s Saloon has been an anchor in Sundance Square for nearly three decades,” said Johnny Campbell, president and CEO of Sundance Square. “Dick and Peggy McMullin opened the restaurant at a time when downtown Fort Worth was being revitalized and they helped build a base for people to gather. We are saddened to see the restaurant close, but we will cherish the memories of Billy Miner’s Saloon. We wish Peggy well and thank her for a great run in Sundance Square.”

There are more than 20 full-service restaurants in Sundance Square, one of the country’s leading mixed-use developments. More than half of the full-service restaurants have been in Sundance Square an average of 14.7 years.

Riscky’s has made Sundance Square home for 18 years, Uno and Razzoo’s with 17 years, and 8.0 has been in Sundance Square for 15 years. Mi Cocina and Flying Saucer moved in more than 14 years ago with Cabo Grande and Chop House each taking up residence more than 12 years ago.

Located in the heart of downtown Fort Worth, historic Sundance Square is a 35-block commercial, residential, entertainment and retail district where people work, live, shop and dine. Sundance Square’s beautiful landscaping, red-brick streets and turn-of-the-century buildings make it a pedestrian’s delight.

Named after the famed Sundance Kid, who used the Fort Worth area as a hideout, Sundance Square has been hailed as a monumental achievement in urban redevelopment. Sundance Square is comprised of restaurants, three live theatres, an AMC movie theatre, Bass Performance Hall, two museums, three art galleries, numerous retail shops and boutiques, as well as two upscale residential complexes, and some of Fort Worth's prime office space.
