In the beginning of May we learned of a new restaurant called Roll House Specialty Rolls opening in downtown Walnut Creek where Main Street Deli / Brass Bear Delicatessen used to be and it looks like they’re almost finished judging from a look inside. I couldn’t find any online presence yet…
Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
Thanks to a reader for pointing out that The Art of Shaving is closing in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek. Note that 40% off sign is only for those who join their “replenishment club“. I wonder if all the construction going on impacted their sales. Too bad they decided to close now because the Apple store is almost finished, the men’s clothing store UNTUCKit opened recently nearby, and another men’s clothing store, Bonobos is set to open nearby as well.
