Founders Row Shops & Restaurants

Founders Row currently has eight historic buildings, with plans to restore and add more Queen Anne-style Victorian homes. Several buildings were moved to the site and restored. The Anderson Farmstead is an 1896 Victorian farmhouse first built in Midlothian and later moved to Founders Row, and The Church was completed in 1891 as the First Christian Church of Italy, Texas, before it was relocated here. The Porch Pour occupies an 1890s Victorian house with a veranda.

The mix of tenants covers hair, food, drink and home goods. Ember & Ash Salon is in The Carriage House and offers haircuts and hair color. Relic + Root, an interior design and home decor shop, is in the C.W. Mertz House. Twisted Sisters Tap House serves brick-oven pizza and more than 30 rotating American craft beers, Wilson's Seafood serves fresh seafood with indoor and outdoor seating, and The Porch Pour serves seasonal, locally sourced food along with craft beer and cocktails. SOCO Coffee House started as a coffee trailer run by three sisters, and its coffee cart still serves events across the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Ember & Ash Salon was founded by Emilie Woodward, who works there as a master stylist. The salon describes each session as designed to build confidence and restore balance. Founders Row's business office is in Duncanville.

Founders Row restores historic houses in Midlothian and fills them with independent shops and restaurants.

The setting is a group of restored historic houses and churches along East Avenue F and Avenue G.
