The Orchards at Walnut Creek
Last summer we learned that San Diego-based Mike Hess Brewing Co. would be coming to The Orchards in Walnut Creek and they have now opened with a huge patio area as you can see in the photos below. Check out their online beer selection here. Interestingly Mike Hess is a Northgate High graduate!
2066 Salvio St, Concord
This coming November, Bollinger Nail Salon will be relocating across the street on Salvio St. where Comcast used to be in Concord near Todos Santos Plaza. Check out their services here.
Downtown Pleasant Hill Shopping Center
In the beginning of the year we learned that ULTA Beauty would be coming to the Downtown Pleasant Hill shopping center and the signage is now up as they get closer to opening. They opened several years ago in the Willows shopping center in Concord; I wonder if that location will remain open. Check out their online shop here.
177 Hartz Ave, Danville
Pleasanton-based Bay Area Tile & Hardwood Supply is coming to Danville where Danville Wine & Liquors used to be on Hartz Ave. Check out their website here.
Tassajara Crossing, Danville
Houston-based OsteoStrong is coming to Tassajara Crossing in Danville. Find out more about the sessions that take place at the centers here.
From their website:
OsteoStrong® is not a gym, diet, supplement, pharmaceutical, or a medical treatment. OsteoStrong® is a unique place where you can go to improve your overall health by focusing on the one thing we all have in common: a skeletal system. OsteoStrong® is a biohack that helps you strengthen the foundation of your body – the skeletal system. Unlike other health solutions, you don’t have to spend hours at a gym or exert physical energy that will leave you feeling tired by the time you’re done.
Stone Valley Center, Alamo
The Mexican restaurant Maguey opened a couple of months ago at Stone Valley Center in Alamo where Don Jose’s used to be. Check out their menu here.
Thanks to a reader for pointing out that the paint and ship studio Canvas and Cabernet, which opened in downtown Walnut Creek back in 2013, has relocated across from the Kaiser medical center on S. Main St. As you can see in the photo below, the signage says, “The Practice for Women”, but the Canvas and Cabernet website still has classes available on their calendar. They are open Thursday – Saturday, 6 – 9pm and Sundays 3 – 6pm. Check for updates on their Facebook page here.
Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
Napa-based fast casual restaurant Heritage Eats opened over the weekend at Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek. As you can see there is a small outdoor patio in front. Check out their Walnut Creek menu here.
La Fiesta Square, Lafayette
The women’s clothing boutique Specialtees closed the last day of 2017 in Lafayette’s La Fiesta Square and this spot has been split in half with Oakland-based Harper Greer, another clothing boutique, planning to occupy the left side next to the health store Open Sesame. Check out their online collection here and stay tuned for the opening date.
Moraga Shopping Center
Last month we learned that La Finestra Ristorante would be relocating from their Lafayette location to the Moraga shopping center near Safeway and as you can see in the above photo their signage is up. Look for the opening to happen next month and in the meantime check out their catering menu here.
