Public records and an employer listing show a large private wine-storage and membership club taking shape at OB Mac on Fort Worth’s Southside, but they do not establish when it will open or what membership will cost.
The Cellars at OB Mac is tied to a $1.1 million interior renovation, a pending alcohol application and active recruitment for a full-time club manager. Together, the records provide a detailed view of the project’s scale and intended service while leaving its launch date unsettled.
The concept described by the employer
In its employer listing, The Cellars at OB Mac describes itself as a private wine-storage and membership club. The proposed services include climate-controlled storage, member services and events.
That description points to a club built around members and stored wine rather than a conventional retail wine shop. It also establishes that events and member services are intended parts of the operation, although the listing does not provide an event calendar, membership tiers or prices.
The Cellars’ official website associates the business with Fort Worth’s Southside. It offers an inquiry channel and a member login, but it does not announce an opening date or a membership price.
The presence of a member login should not be read as confirmation that the physical club is open. The official site’s lack of a launch announcement, combined with the pending license application, leaves the current operating status unconfirmed by the supplied records.
A 14,856-square-foot interior renovation
A Texas accessibility record identifies the OB Mac work as a privately funded interior renovation covering 14,856 square feet. The estimated cost listed for the project is $1.1 million.
The recorded scope includes electrical, mechanical, plumbing and finish work. Those categories show that the filing covers more than a minor decorative update, but the record does not provide a room-by-room plan or describe the final member areas.
The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation record lists a planned construction period from September 1 through December 23, 2025. It currently marks the accessibility review complete.
Neither the planned construction dates nor the completed accessibility review establishes that construction finished on that schedule. They also do not establish that the club has opened, passed every other review or obtained every authorization it may need.
Pending alcohol application at 108 South Freeway
The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission lists application 623716 for The Cellars at OB Mac at 108 South Freeway, Suite 130. The application is pending and in review.
That address connects the license activity to the OB Mac project described in the renovation record. The pending status is evidence of an active application, not evidence that a license has been issued or that alcohol service has begun.
People tracking the project should therefore treat the TABC record as a milestone rather than an opening notice. A pending application can show that licensing work is underway while leaving both the outcome and timing unresolved.
The business name also appears consistently across the application, employer material and official site. Those sources collectively identify the planned operation, but none of them supplies a confirmed first day of business.
Hiring a private cellar and club manager
The employer listing seeks a full-time private cellar and club manager. The listed annual pay range is $60,000 to $70,000.
Because the job title is specific to the cellar and club operation, the listing adds a practical detail not contained in the construction or alcohol records: the business is recruiting management for the intended member experience and wine-storage service.
The listing does not state that hiring has been completed. It also does not provide a broader staffing count, so it would be premature to estimate how many employees the club will have or when a full team could be in place.
What is known now

- Planned concept: A private membership club offering climate-controlled wine storage, member services and events.
- Renovation scale: 14,856 square feet with a listed cost of $1.1 million.
- Recorded work: Electrical, mechanical, plumbing and finish work.

- Hiring: A full-time club manager role is listed at $60,000 to $70,000 annually.
What remains unanswered
No approved source announces an opening date. The official site also does not publish membership prices, and the public materials do not say how much storage a membership includes or describe the schedule of planned events.
The records do not establish that the club is currently accepting members for physical access. An inquiry option and member login provide ways for the business to communicate with interested people, but they are not substitutes for a public opening announcement.
The same caution applies to the state filings. A completed accessibility review describes the status of that review, while a pending TABC application describes an unresolved licensing step. Neither answers whether the doors are open.
How this compares with other Fort Worth-area openings
Licensing records often reveal activity before a business announces a firm opening. DFW Daily Brief recently found a similar gap at Luna Loco in Keller, where a later pending application showed continued activity after an earlier opening target passed.
The Cellars record set is unusually specific about physical scale and intended service: a 14,856-square-foot renovation, climate-controlled storage, member services and a management search. Its biggest consumer-facing details, however, remain absent.
For now, the most accurate description is a substantial private wine-club project with documented renovation, hiring and licensing activity. A confirmed opening date and membership terms will require a later announcement from the business or a change in the relevant public records.
