The Library Social Club, under the same ownership as The Hideout Kitchen in Lafayette, opened recently in downtown Walnut Creek where Guava Island Eats used to be.
From their website:
Set in Walnut Creek’s busy downtown, The Library provides a unique experience unlike any other wine club with its repurposed vintage decor, value conscious price points and a sincere experience.
The Library offers a blend of esoteric and classic wines, local brews and small bites, and is open to the public but offers exclusive membership packages with many perks.

Last month, we learned that Boba Studio would be opening April 14th in downtown Walnut Creek, and they have now soft opened. I tried the Tropical Fruit Tea, organic jasmine tea with homemade pineapple puree and passion fruit seeds and fruit chunks and it was very tasty. In addition to boba drinks, they also offer cookies, biscuits and tuiles (baked wafers). Check out their menu here.
From their website:
Selina was born in a traditional family with a generation of boba-tea making history in Taiwan. Selina immigrated to the US in her late twenties and finished her education at UC Berkeley. After more than a decade of rearing her two American-born children, Selina decided to bring her family’s boba-tea-making art to her new homeland.
