Mollie Stone’s to Take the Castro Delano’s Spot

We were pretty confident that the Castro location of Delano’s market (4201 18th Street), vacated last month, would get snapped up pretty quickly, and now Grub Street learns that upscale grocer Mollie Stone’s is the taker — their tagline: The Best of Both Worlds. This will be Mollie Stone’s third location in San Francisco, with others already in Pacific Heights (2435 California at Fillmore) and Twin Peaks (635 Portola). Thankfully, pending the construction of that new Whole Foods, the refined palates of Eureka Valley and Diamond Heights won’t have to trek over the hill to Noe Valley or (god forbid) down to Safeway for their groceries. The opening date for Mollie Stone’s is still TBA, but we’re going to guess March. [Grub Street]
