Here’s what opened, closed and is coming soon to Johnson County this month

From boba tea and baked goods to retro goods, here's are the openings, closings and soon-to-comes that the Post reported on this month.

The owner of a popular Leawood eatery has officially opened a new bakery, right next door to the restaurant’s flagship location.

A rock’n’roll-themed eatery closed its doors at Overland Park’s Prairiefire, but it didn’t take long for something else to start coming to life in the space.

Further south, the growing Bluhawk development in Overland Park is seeing one new addition after another; from acai bowls and boba tea to multiple new clothing and lifestyle retailers.

That’s just a snapshot of what arrived and left Johnson County in terms of local business this past month, and what’s still to come.
