The more things change, the more they stay the same… A couple of new places opened in town, and a couple moved.

The Blue Water Bar & Grill (above) opened its doors on Monday this week. Located in the spot where the Front Street Café was located for a couple of decades, and spreading into the old Gourmet Galley/Boardwalk Bookstore space, the Blue Water offers good appetizers and burgers, as well as dinner choices, along with a full service bar. Drop in & tell ’em hey!

Meanwhile, Mi Piace Coffeehouse (located at the top of the ferry lanes) has turned into the Churchill Coffeehouse, under new ownership.

Madden at Steps has been closed for a couple of months now, and says he’s on track to re-open in his new spot across from Downrigger’s in mid-May. Not as dramatically, Dan Ward says he’s moving San Juan Transit’s main office one door down, as the surf guy next door spreads into his old space.

If you get lost, just give me a call.

The view from the Blue Water Bar & Grill - you can see the ferry come in, the Place Bar & Grill and Discovery Sea Kayaks, and the marina.
