Lacy Lakeview Wienerschnitzel

Wienerschnitzel Lacy Lakeview Renovation

The Wienerschnitzel Lacy Lakeview project at 1207 N Loop 340 in Lacy Lakeview, Texas, is a completed renovation of an existing drive-through bank facility into a quick-serve restaurant. The building covers 2,892 square feet and required an estimated $1,000,000 in construction costs. This results in a cost per square foot of $346. The work was registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) in February 2026, with plan review completed the following month. Construction officially began in April 2026 and concluded with a passed final TDLR accessibility inspection in November 2026. The filing lists a completion date of January 2027, but the building passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in November 2026, so construction is complete.

1207 N Loop 340 LLC is the owner and developer of record for this privately funded project on private land. Nisbet Architecture, LLC served as the design firm of record, overseeing the alterations required to convert the structure. Christopher R Hinkle was the registered accessibility specialist responsible for ensuring the project met state accessibility standards. The project is located in McLennan County, where the median estimated cost for similar renovation or alteration filings is $280,000. This project’s cost is above the county median for its type, placing it in the top quarter of comparable filings.

The site is situated inside a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (zone A). Nisbet Architecture, LLC has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $17,475,000, including the Yellow Cottage Kitchen in Waco and the Bellmead Operations Building in Bellmead. The firm’s work on this Wienerschnitzel location contributes to their portfolio in the region.

The project demonstrates a significant investment in accessibility infrastructure for a quick-serve restaurant in Lacy Lakeview. The renovation of the former bank facility required specific design and construction adjustments to meet TDLR standards. Christopher R Hinkle’s role as the registered accessibility specialist ensured compliance throughout the process. The final inspection passed in November 2026, confirming the work met all regulatory requirements. The project’s higher cost per square foot and longer timeline reflect the complexity of converting an existing commercial structure.
