5 places Joe Jonas was spotted recently in Dallas-Fort Worth

The pop star played croquet with a North Texas chef.

Does Fort Worth ever cross Joe Jonas’ mind? He made at least five stops in Tarrant County May 9 and 10, 2025.

The weekend started with an appearance at the Post Malone concert at AT&T Stadium, where Dallas Morning News reporter Uwa Ede-Osifo reports he sang a duet with concert opener Sierra Ferrell.

The next day, the frontman of pop band The Jonas Brothers hosted a surprise concert in Fort Worth’s Mule Alley, a redeveloped section of the Stockyards.

Then, he delayed his flight to stop into the White Elephant Saloon and Paloma Suerte, two bars in the Fort Worth Stockyards owned by chef Tim Love.

The chef had to leave to visit his new bar, Stewart’s Croquet & Cocktails, and Jonas and his crew decided to him for a round of croquet. Jonas and Love played on the same team against friends, and according to Love, “kicked everyone’s ass.”

Inside, Stewart’s seats a scant 28 people. Love has transformed the tiny place, a former Greek grocery store, into a martini bar with caviar.

Jonas and his friends sampled much of the menu:

“We did multiple caviar bumps,” Love said. (We expect this to be one of the “things” folks do at Stewart’s.) “Then they got the potato fried cheese, obviously, with caviar. They got the burger, the roasted mash, the Thai salmon.”

Jonas’ group and Love shared a few orders of bananas foster. Love said they “loved the martini cart.”

The Jonas family has known Love for years, according to a spokesperson. At a concert in Los Angeles, Love said he once got stuck in an elevator with Jonas and some of his friends and family.

“We’ve had some funny times,” Love said.

In 2023, the Jonas Brothers played a secret pop-up show at Tannahill‘s, another one of Love’s bars.

The band of brothers — Joe Jonas, Nick Jonas and Kevin Jonas — have been performing together since 2005. After a hiatus in the 2010s, the JoBros are back together. They plan to return to North Texas Aug. 31, 2025, for a Jonas Brothers concert at Globe Life Field in Arlington.

With Joe Jonas’ appearance in Fort Worth recently, he’s also promoting a new solo album, Music For People Who Believe in Love, out May 23, 2025.
