2020 has been a difficult year for restaurants. A few weeks ago we released a list of restaurants that have closed since March 17th.(not necessarily due to Covid, but since the day the initial restrictions were put in place).

While that list is long, there are still plenty of restaurants planning to open in MoCo in 2021.


Current Kentlands Starbucks to Close Permanently Tonight, New Location to Open on Thursday 12/31

The new drive-thru Starbucks in the Kentlands was approved by the city of Gaithersburg back in 2018, but it took a little time for construction to get started.


In September we let you know that Fleet Feet would be returning to the Kentlands after closing the previous location at 255 Kentlands back in July due to a 90% decline in revenue.

It will be returning to Gaithersburg just about a quarter mile away at 201 West Market Street next to the Goldfish Swin School near Michael’s.
