Popular Fort Worth sourdough bakery and sandwich shop to open second location

After teasing a Parker County location for a few months now, The Sour Boule officially announced a second location will open in Willow Park.

The bakery opened in 2023 and gained popularity for their scratch-made sourdough sandwiches, bagels, pastries and homemade pickles. After less than a year, The Sour Boule’s popularity pushed them to expand into a larger space next door to the original cafe at 3801 Southwest Blvd. in west Fort Worth.

Now, they will open their second location at 280 Willow Bend Drive in Willow Park.

The new store will have an expanded menu, with new items that aren’t offered at the flagship location, according to the announcement.

When will The Sour Boule open in Willow Park?

The Sour Boule location in Willow Park is still under construction.

In their Facebook announcement, they said they aren’t quite ready to share an opening timeline or hours. They have also not yet responded to the Star-Telegram for further comment.

However, the new location is hiring front of horse baristas and back of house pre and production “sandwich artists.”

What’s on The Sour Boule menu?

All menu items at The Sour Boule are made with slow-fermented sourdough, in-house cured deli meats and natural ingredients. Many of their menu items are named after the iconic ‘90s sitcom “Friends.”

Popular items include their rosemary garlic sourdough bagels, which you can turn into a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich.

For lunch, the cafe’s namesake sandwich, “The Sour Boule,” has chicken, American cheese, tomatoes, and pickle slaw on fresh sourdough. You can also get this spicy with chipotle mayo instead of the standard mayo.

The “I Got Nothin’” sandwich is a panini-pressed pastrami sandwich, easily a crowd favorite.

“The One With Cranberry” is a play on Monica’s “moist maker” from the episode, “The One With Ross’ Sandwich.” This item has mayo, turkey, fresh sprouts, cranberry sauce, and cream cheese on sourdough.

Pickles are served with every sandwich in flavors like spicy tajin, oregano and ranch. Their house-made potato chips are fried in beef tallow.
