February 2024 Updates

Ah February. The shortest month of the year. Most famous for Valentine's Day.  A day to celebrate love and affection to those closest to you with really expensive flowers and trinkets. It is also a time when many people start to feel the anticipation of spring, as the days gradually become longer and signs of new life begin to emerge. Overall, February offers a mix of winter coziness and the promise of brighter days ahead.  I hope everyone has brighter days ahead filled with happiness and prosperity.

Panera Bread has opened their new freestanding location in Waldorf next to Silver Diner. 3070 Technology Place. The other location in the shopping center closed.  No new tenant yet.  I hear it does not have a fireplace in the new one and people are already upset.  This one does have a drive thru.

Grille No. 13 is now open as a carry out restaurant at 351 Smallwood Drive in Waldorf.  
Milk & Honey Cafe is coming to the Charles County Plaza next to Planet Fitness.  From their website: "Milk & Honey is a New Orleans themed Southern Brunch that features Award Winning Shrimp & Grits, Chicken & Waffles, RumChata French Toast and specializes in other slow cooked mouth-watering favorites." No word on an opening date as the lease was just finalized.

The former AT&T store at Rosewick road in La Plata will be divided into two spaces.  Webster Insurance and Choice Floors and Stairs will be the two new tenants.

Name correction! The restaurant taking over the former Grill 13 space at Waldorf Marketplace is called T POT. They just opened one in Gambrills, MD recently. No word on an opening date yet. https://tpotrestaurant.com/

Lucianna's Steakhouse is back with a new owner. They are still at 3331 Plaza way in Waldorf.

Calvert Yard Cards Grand Opening at 1921 Skinners Turn Road, Owings, MD

So while doing some research on sales I found that the former capital one in Waldorf Marketplace next to Red Robin has been purchased to do a Zaxby's! I don't have any other information yet. I would assume they got approvals or they wouldn't have bought it. We will see how this progresses.
Firepan Korean BBQ and Bar is now having its soft opening at the Charles County Plaza. 3237 Plaza Drive. Grand Opening is March 6th.


Tommy's Express Car Wash is now open at 3185 Crain Highway.
