About this project
The photos show Gather Kitchen’s full-height glass storefront on the ground floor of a mixed-use building, with outdoor seating along the sidewalk, and its service line: white subway tile, open wood shelving with bowls and plates, menu boards above the line and the stainless counter where orders are assembled.
Gather Kitchen is one of the restaurant brands on the Harrison Construction client list. A fast-casual finish-out like this lives on the service line: the hood, the equipment and the counter are coordinated with the supplier before rough-in, and the storefront and the landlord’s requirements decide the rest.
Harrison builds restaurants & qsr projects as tenant finish-outs, freestanding buildings and remodels, with pre-construction first. More about restaurants & qsr construction.
What a build like this involves
- Review of the landlord’s delivery condition and the lease exhibits
- Demolition where a previous tenant left a finish-out, then walls, ceilings and the storefront
- Kitchen rough-in, hood and exhaust, fire suppression, grease interceptor and the equipment package
- Dining room finishes, counters, lighting, restrooms and the brand’s graphics
- Permits with the city, the health authority review and the final inspections

Why owners choose Harrison for a restaurants project
Restaurants, finish-outs and medical offices, built here
Founded in Fort Worth by Lonnie Harrison, who has more than 25 years in construction. 190 completed projects on record in 8 states, for Firehouse Subs, Sonic, Five Guys, Taco Cabana, Starbucks, El Pollo Loco and 7-Eleven, among 73 brands.
Licensed in Texas and 29 other states
What a landlord, a lender and a franchise brand ask for first, with a ground-up division and a finish-out team under one roof.
Meetings, reports, changes priced first
Regular progress meetings and electronic project reports from the site visit to the punch list. A change is priced and approved before it is built.
Do you build fast-casual restaurants with an open kitchen?
Yes. Open service lines, counters, hoods and equipment packages are part of our restaurant finish-out work, for brands such as Gather Kitchen, Snappy Salads and Which Wich on our client list.
Can you finish out a restaurant in a mixed-use or office building?
Yes. Ground-floor restaurant space in mixed-use buildings has its own landlord rules, hours of work and exhaust routing; we read the lease exhibits with you before pricing.
Are you bonded and insured?
Yes. Harrison Construction is fully bonded and insured, and licensed in Texas and 29 other states.
How do I get a price for a project like this?
Send the address, the lease or the site status, any drawings or the brand’s prototype and the date you need to open. We visit the site, review the documents and come back with a conceptual estimate, value-engineering options and a schedule.
