Pecan Lodge is finally opening its Deep Ellum doors Friday and showing off its new digs and a new special beer. A lot is changing for Pecan Lodge -- they are moving from a small spot in the farmers market to more than 4,500 square feet of space, plus a patio that overlooks Main Street and a stage that will be housing live music every Saturday.
