Whiskey Cake set to open after $1 million makeover

Whiskey Cake is betting that more than $1 million in exterior and interior renovations to its former Ida Claire restaurant at Town Center will make the venue a success.

Ben Woodring, vice president of Operations at Dallas-based FB Society, said the company failed to invest in reworking the building when it opened Ida Claire in 2019.

“With Whiskey Cake, once you walk in you will be transported. You’ll know you’re in a different place,” Woodring said.

There are 12 Whiskey Cake locations in Florida, Oklahoma and Texas. Jacksonville will join Tampa when the restaurant opens Nov. 7 as the two Florida restaurants.
