We thank you for your patronage over the years and look forward to serving you again.

The online thrift store ThredUp is opening their second location in downtown Walnut Creek where H&M used to be in the Broadway Pointe shopping center on August 17th. A sign inside says “ThredUp popup” so this may be a temporary popup shop but there is no mention of this being a popup in this Forbes article, where the founder notes that people in Walnut Creek are “more affluent and suburban, and that store will offer more designer brands and more handbags.” Check out their website here, and enter for your chance at a $500 shopping spree in the Walnut Creek store here.

Earlier this year we posted scuttlebutt about how the boba cafe T4 may be coming to downtown Walnut Creek and this is now been confirmed based on a peek inside. T4 already has one cafe in Walnut Creek in Ygnacio Plaza and this will be, incredibly, the fourth boba cafe in downtown Walnut Creek in addition to Mr. Green Bubble, Chalogy, and iTea. There are now more boba cafes than ice cream shops (Lottie’s Creamery, CREAM, San Francisco Creamery) in downtown Walnut Creek!
I’m still waiting for a rice pudding cafe though…
