Bethesda

Back in January we let you know that Berries & Bowls, the “Superfood Cafe” would open its second  location at 4961 Elm St. in Bethesda– the former home of Spring Mill Bread Co.

Signage is now up and construction is finishing up, as Berries & Bowls hopes to open its new location in the first half of August.

Wayback Burgers, a fast-casual burger chain based out of Connecticut, is coming to Montgomery County with a new location in Gaithersburg.

Construction on the restaurant begins today. It will be located at The Shops of Potomac Valley shopping center at 12121 Darnestown Rd. in the location that was formerly home to an AT&T store and a tanning salon before that.


Bethesda

Back on April 1st, we let you know that Bethesda Bagels would be coming to 14929-D Shady Grove Rd in Rockville, the former site of GameStop, in Fallsgrove (the GameStop location closed in January of this year).

We were recently informed by representatives for Bethesda Bagels that construction on the site started on July 6th.


Glenmont

Starbucks is moving in to the Glenmont Shopping Center, taking over the location what was previously home to Capital One and a Chevy Chase banks (2315 Randolph Road).

The 2,800+ square foot building was built in 1998 and had been available for sale for months. A couple weeks ago Starbucks put up a “coming soon” banner, and construction at the building has already started (see photos below).


Germantown

A new shop that will feature “ice cream, acai bowls, dog treats, and more” will be coming to Germantown Town Center, taking over the location that was formerly home to Town Center Cleaners (next to Acqua Nails).

Temporary signage has gone up at the location stating that the shop will offer everything listed above. A neon sign is also up in the window that reads “100% Sweet.” As of now, we’re unsure if it’s referring to the new name of the location or if it’s describing the upcoming menu.


Bethesda

Haagen Dazs will close its Bethesda Row location on July 31st, according to an employee at the shop.

The ice cream shop, which has been there for about a decade, will be replaced by a Chaia Tacos pop-up. Chaia currently has two locations in D.C. and will be bringing their vegan tacos to Bethesda Row.
