1601 Mt. Diablo Blvd, Walnut Creek
Yesterday we learned that The Vitamin Shoppe will be closing at the end of March in downtown Walnut Creek with a Starbucks opening in its place. However, according to a solid source this is not going to be any old ordinary Starbucks; rather look for a new Starbucks Reserve to open here featuring a “more intimate small-lot coffee experience”. Find out more about the Starbucks Reserve concept on their website here. Note that a Starbucks Reserve will be opening on Hartz Ave. in Danville as well.
From the Starbucks Reserve website:
Apart from the full-scale theatricality of the Starbucks Reserve™ Roasteries, our bars and stores offer a more intimate small-lot coffee experience. These are the perfect places to pick up Starbucks Reserve™ whole bean coffee, enjoy a handcrafted Starbucks Reserve™ beverage and chat with a barista about all things coffee.
