1372 N. Main St, Walnut Creek
Last month we learned that Ananas Coffee would be coming to downtown Walnut Creek where CREAM used to be, and they are expected to open very soon, possible next week. Look for coffee from Zolo Coffee Roasters, and bread and pastries from ACME.
City Center Bishop Ranch, San Ramon
Khaki Bar and Indian Canteen is coming to City Center Bishop Ranch where Curry Up Now Indian Street Food used to be.
I couldn’t help but chuckle at the FRESH CREAM PUFFS signage outside a dessert place in Cupertino, with only CREAM PUFFS lit up. I guess if I want fresh cream puffs I’ll have to look elsewhere.
1521 Cypress St, Walnut Creek
Last month, we learned that Mr. Dewie’s Cashew Creamery, “free of dairy, gluten, and soy” would be coming to downtown Walnut Creek, and they have now opened. Check out their flavor menu here. And remember, this ice cream has, “no fillers, additives, preservatives, gums, or oils — truly homemade!”
Plaza Center, Lafayette
Last year, we learned that Craft & Fire Taproom, Artisan Pizza, featuring, “30 rotating taps of craft beer, ales, sours, ciders” and more, would be coming to Plaza Center in Lafayette behind Whole Foods, and according to a sign in their window, look for a spring opening. Check for updates on their Insta here, and website here.
Oak Grove Plaza, Concord
Thanks to everyone who sent word that Boichik Bagels is coming to Oak Grove Plaza in Concord according to this SF Gate article. Check out their bagel selection here. $3.25 for a bagel. Compared to $2.39 for a bagel at Noah’s NY Bagels, is the 30% premium worth it?
From their website:
I am very proud that our bagels are made with premium, organic ingredients, and our staff is paid well and enjoys full benefits.
1372 N. Main St, Walnut Creek
Look for Ananas Coffee & Acai to come to downtown Walnut Creek soon where CREAM used to be. This is a great location when the weather is nice out with the large patio area.
41 Moraga Way, Orinda
Boba cafe Nine Tailed Fox is replacing Sharetea in Orinda with a soft opening slated for March 3rd. Get 15% through March 16th. This reminds me of when Zoonie’s replaced Powell’s Sweet Shopped in Lafayette back in 2017; I wonder if it has to do with saving on franchise fees.
From their website:
Opened by a Miramonte graduate and Orinda native, Nine Tailed Fox is the place for people of all ages to laugh, enjoy and share boba and bubble waffles!
1521 Cypress St, Walnut Creek
Thanks to a reader for sending word that Mr. Dewie’s Cashew Creamery, with locations in Emeryville, Albany and Piedmont, is coming to downtown Walnut Creek. Check out their flavor menu here.
From their website:
Their mission was to make a creamy, rich, and delicious ice cream that also met their personal dietary needs of being free of dairy, gluten, and soy.
