Do you remember the ice rink/ mini golf course in Kentlands?

Back in the early 2000s, the plaza area between Crepes-A-Go-Go and Thai Tanium held an ice rink during the winter and a mini golf course in the summer. This venture only lasted for a couple of years, but it was the source of fond memories for many during that time.


Back in July, we let you know that a new drive-thru Starbucks was being built in the parking lot in front of Lowe’s and behind Chipotle. Today, we stopped by to check on the progress of the new building.

The current Starbucks location will close when this new location opens. We heard that a local coffee shop might take its place.


Fleet Feet in The Kentlands just shared that their store is closing permanently. Here is the message that they included in their announcement:

“Unfortunately, Fleet Feet Gaithersburg will be permanently closing our doors in the next week. We appreciate all of our customers’ patronage and wish we could continue to serve you. However, the economic impact of a multi-month crushing decline in revenue of 90% for the last 90 days has proven to be too much.”
