Former Vanderpump Rules stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright jumped back into reality TV relevance when Scandoval broke. The duo discussed their ideas about Tom Sandoval’s cheating scandal and eventually landed roles on The Valley. Unfortunately, their marriage fell apart as the series was filmed. Well, now Brittany is taking a giant leap forward and opening her own bar. I can almost taste Mamaw’s Beer Cheese!
Brittany Cartwright’s new bar is located near SUR and Tom Tom
While Jax was in rehab to deal with his mental health, Brittany knew that Jax hadn’t changed. “Like, if you’re in therapy seven hours a day,” Brittany explained, “and you’re still finding time to call me names and cuss me out? And send me rage texts? Then you’re obviously not ever gonna change.” Yikes! So, Brittany filed for divorce in August 2024.
You may recall that Jax has a bar, Jax’s Studio City. And, for a while, Brittany helped with her husband’s business. Then Brittany dropped a bomb on her podcast listeners during a recent episode of When Reality Hits with Brittany and Jax. “You all know we started the bar-restaurant business, and we started off with Jax’s,” Brittany said. “A lot has changed since we started that. I did a lot to help that place. I put Mamaw’s Beer Cheese on the menu, I did all the flowers.”
She continued, “I helped decorate, I showed up when Jax couldn’t be there.” Brittany added, “I tried my hardest to keep everything going. I love the partners that we have there and they recently came to me and … Britt’s is coming to WeHo!” Good for you, girl!
Apparently, Brittany will be a “part owner” along with her business partners. “Jax’s is still near and dear to me because I literally started that and I helped with so much of that,” she stated, “but I’m gonna have my own bar in West Hollywood right across from where I started, [near] SUR. Tom Tom is three doors down from me … it’s in the best location ever. I cannot wait.” The Pump Rules alum added, “I just hope everybody loves it. We’re going to start construction, and I’m just so excited!”
Of course, I’m sure somewhere Jax is brooding about Brittany’s big move. After all, Jax is planning to open “two more locations,” he previously stated. “One in California, and one is out of state. I can’t say exactly where, but yeah. We’re really excited,” he added.
I hope that Brittany gets that beer cheese off of Jax’s menu so that she can serve it at her bar. Yes – I’m petty like that.
The Valley is streaming on Peacock.
