MANY New Shops & Restaurants Coming to Bartram Park  - There are several new shops that have been announced as coming to the area soon. Construction on the new large scale development at the intersection of Racetrack Rd and Bartram Park Blvd is well underway, with major outlets including Walmart, Bass Pro Shop, Home Depot, Chik-Fil-A and a Junior's Seafood Restaurant & Grill already signed up.

In addition, more shops are planned to open on the other end of the community. Dairy Queen also is headed to the Bartram Park area. Plans filed with the St. Johns River Water Management District show the ice-cream shop could open at 13966 Village Lake Circle in Bartram Village. It would occupy a 3,290-square-foot building that would be developed on almost 1.7 acres Behind Dunkin Donuts. Also, First Watch Daytime Cafe is planning to be build out a stand alone in front of Tijuana Flats. La Nopalera is going into the old Daruma restaurant along with 2-3 other retail. So much is going on in our area.
