PLANNED EATERY: OKLAHOMA CITY (April 14, 2026) – The Social Order is bringing its most ambitious concept yet to downtown Oklahoma City. Wildcat, a new all-day dining and hospitality destination, is set to open in late 2027 at 434 W Main Street, a long-coveted art deco corner building at Main & Walker that CEO and Founding Partner Brian Bogert has had his eye on since 2015.

The concept is rooted in a simple idea: bring back the heartbeat of downtown Main Street. In Oklahoma City's early days, the city's cafés and saloons were where people got their news, held town halls, and gathered as a community. Wildcat is a modern interpretation of that. Part European café, part intimate supper club, part neighborhood saloon, depending on the hour.

"Wildcat is where rebellious heritage meets worldly sophistication," said Bogert.

By day, sidewalk tables spill onto the street in a nod to the cafés of Paris. As the sun goes down, the energy shifts to a moodier, more intimate tone, but always anchored by a food and beverage program built on approachable sophistication and modern takes on forgotten recipes. The experience is guided by the philosophy: All Welcome, All Ways.
~
The name draws from Oklahoma history. Wildcatters, the risk-takers who drilled for oil on instinct and nerve, embodied the "strike while the striking's good" mentality that says everything about this project. Bold, irreverent, and confident, Wildcat was the only name that fit.

The team behind the project is strong. Architecture and design is led by Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM) with Modus Construction as the General Contractor, interiors by Philadelphia-based Rohe Interiors, and branding by Trackmeet. Together, they're building something that honors the building's Art Deco bones while layering in western and modern design influences, which Bogert describes as a "warm hug" upon entering.

Wildcat is expected to open late 2027.
