A well-known farmer’s market fixture appears to be getting a brick-and-mortar in Palms. A very sharp-eyed reader noticed the (very faint) window paper up on the space at used to be the home to C&M Cafe, at 10640 Woodbine St (corner of Overland). Daniel’s Bagels offers a solid menu of hand-made bagel standards that have quickly become local favorites.
(Thanks Daniel!)
If you’ve been paying attention, you know that the stretch of Overland that runs through Palms is getting a major transformation. New, tall multi-use buildings are under construction all along the boulevard. One of these projects, Venue at 3688 Overland, is getting a new neighborhood shop, Millbrook Market. 
Culver City is getting a whole lot sweeter, with the arrival of Handel’s Ice Cream and now this…. There’s a banner up on the space at 3865 Overland announcing a branch of Nothing Bundt Cakes is setting up housekeeping. Nothing Bundt Cakes’ handcrafted ultra moist confections inspire legions of fans. They began in 1997 in Las Vegas and have since expanded to 500 locations.
(Thanks Andrew!)
Sadly, it appears The Overland Cafe, at 3601 Overland Ave. has finally given up the ghost. The cozy Palms neighborhood fave had been on the go for 50 years and fought hard to keep their doors open, including a rebrand as Overland Tap + Kitchen. There is a notice of closure and a brief message of thanks on their website. I’ll keep my eye on the commodious space to see what may develop.
(Thanks Michael!)
