An Italian fast‑casual chain is getting ready to roll into the Walmart on San Antonio’s North Side, adding a fresh grab‑and‑go option for shoppers who want more than a microwavable meal. One confirmed unit will occupy roughly 2,138 square feet at the store at 1515 N. Loop 1604 E, part of a broader U.S. growth push for the brand, which already operates locations in Florida and Massachusetts.
Confirmed spot at the Stone Oak Walmart
According to the San Antonio Business Journal, the chain has signed on for the roughly 2,138‑sq‑ft footprint inside the Stone Oak Walmart at 1515 N. Loop 1604 E, and the outlet notes the brand already has locations in Florida and Massachusetts. Local store listings also show a Walmart Supercenter at that address, per LocalMint.
Walmart's wider store strategy
Walmart has been renovating stores nationwide this year and is opening floor space to new brands and services as part of that effort. In an April press release, the company said it planned more than 650 store remodels and would introduce new displays and third‑party offerings to broaden in‑store options. As outlined by Walmart, the investments are aimed at speeding shopping and expanding local services.
Local context: more counters inside Supercenters
San Antonio has seen a steady flow of chains opening counters inside or adjacent to Supercenters. Dunkin' lands in Universal City Walmart documented one such plan earlier this year, and the San Antonio Business Journal reported that Ohio‑based Piada is plotting multiple city openings.
Menu details and an opening date for the Stone Oak outlet have not been released publicly. We will be watching permit filings and local postings for updates as the buildout moves forward.
