Set to open just outside Old Temecula as early as this spring, Hendo's Barrel House is a 12,500-square-foot venue, combining a brewery, distillery, and restaurant in one space. Henderson, who has lived in Temecula since discovering the area years ago, has deep roots in the Southern California community.Ìý
Known for his successful MMA career, Henderson's transition into entrepreneurship has been marked by a series of ventures, including the Dan Henderson Athletic Training Center in Temecula, which he opened in 2012. The gym has become a staple in the area, offering a variety of training classes.
Henderson's new venture, Hendo's Barrel House, will offer a rustic country bar and sports bar atmosphere with a menu focused on bar food staples like burgers, wings, and steaks, including Wagyu beef selections. The venue will also feature a brewery and distillery, giving patrons a chance to enjoy craft beverages made on-site. This new project, located near Henderson's gym, is poised to be a popular addition to the Temecula scene, offering a blend of food, drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere.
This is not the first time a big name has ventured into the Temecula restaurant scene. Dean Norris, known for his role in Breaking Bad, is also an entrepreneur in the area, owning and operating Swing Inn Cafe & BBQ in Old Temecula. With Henderson now joining the ranks of celebrity restaurateurs, it further highlights Temecula's growing appeal as a hub for both established and rising businesses.
