Last year we learned that the owners of A & G Jewelers in downtown Walnut Creek were retiring. However, they have reopened under new ownership. Check for updates on their Facebook page here.

Sad news as the women’s fashion boutique Norf London is closing in downtown Walnut Creek after being in business nearly fifteen years. Check for updates on their Facebook page here. I’ve passed by this shop thousands of times over the years and always enjoyed seeing that Union Jack flag while practicing my Cockney accent.

Agora at South Main, Walnut Creek
Starbucks opened over four years ago at Agora at South Main in Walnut Creek on Newell Ave. and they have now closed. Thanks to a reader for sending word and photo.

Plaza Escuela, Walnut Creek
Thanks to everyone who emailed that Cost Plus World Market is closing at Plaza Escuela in downtown Walnut Creek. 20% – 40% off everything so far. Browsing this store was always interesting and fun, especially when my kids were small so I’m saddened to see it go. 😔

1360 Locust St, Walnut Creek
Sad news as Bierhaus, the German-inspired restaurant and beer hall which opened about a year ago, closed in downtown Walnut Creek. I really enjoyed dining there and hope they come back in the future. Thanks to all who emailed about this.
