After 20 years of serving Nevada City area residents at their brick and mortar store, California Organics is now branching out to bring their high quality grocery products to Rocklin with a curbside pickup location at 4829 Granite Drive, off of Highway 80.

California Organics products are made from scratch using real, organic, GMO free, sustainably produced ingredients.

Impact Axe, an indoor axe throwing and craft beer lounge, is the latest in recreation in Rocklin—and it’s entirely safe (yes, even with the alcohol). The business opened just under a month ago by three couples who wanted to create a space for people to spend time together and enjoy each other’s company. They have partnered with Wounded Warrior Project and were involved with the first day of Rocklin Police’s six week K-9 training! Kristi Torrington, one of the partners, said, “We want to make you feel at home when you walk in.

Rocklin’s newest Greek restaurant, characterized as a “food truck off the wheels,” is now open. In November, Chef Michael “Wolf” Athanasopoulos opened the brick and mortar version of his thriving Greek and Mediterranean food truck business that serves much of Northern California. “The whole vision of the restaurant is a casual eatery that still has the charm of a food truck,” Chef Wolf says.

“Wash, blo, and go” is the premise for Rocklin’s latest express hair service, Blo Blow Dry Bar! Co-owners Patty Fecanin and Christie Webb are a mother-daughter duo focused on operating a business by women, for women. The goal of the shop is to make sure that all women feel fabulous, and one of the best ways to do that is to give them a beautiful hairstyle that lasts for days. This spa-like location features 10 blow-out stations, along with a makeup bar.

Jon and Bon’s Yogurt Shoppe is the newest addition to the Crossing Shopping Center in Rocklin. The family-owned business started in Chico, and it has since expanded to five locations across Northern California. Typically, the shoppe is open late to encourage community.

The company has frozen yogurt and sugar-free varieties, along with ice cream, smoothies, and shaved ice. Also available are mouth-watering toppings (including homemade granola!). Stop by to cool off or enjoy a sweet treat. Welcome to the neighborhood!

University of Beer (UoB) is not your average bar or restaurant. This is UoB’s fourth location, and the small chain features 48 taps with every kind of craft beer imaginable. Owner Nate Yungvanitsait says that “the goal of the restaurant is to teach our customers about beer instead of just serving it to them.” Employees are well-trained in the art of beer and routinely offer samples to ensure that customers find something they will like. UoB’s wide variety of IPAs, lights, sours, Belgians, and stouts is sure to please.

Rocklin’s newest milk tea option, Tea Republic, opened in January at 4810 Granite Drive, Suite A6, in the Sierra Meadows Plaza.
