🦪 Parkville’s New Seafood Haven: The Parker Hollow

Chef Jonathan Justus and Camille Eklof of Justice Drugstore fame have cast their nets in downtown Parkville, transforming the former Frank’s Italian spot into The Parker Hollow, a West Coast–meets-Missouri seafood shack. Specializing in sustainable oysters (expect Hog Island on the half-shell), Gulf shrimp, and East Coast fish, the menu changes as often as the tide—so be ready for delicious surprises each visit. The two-story, butter-yellow cottage at 100 Main St. offers counter seating to watch the open kitchen below and a cozy second-floor dining room with balcony views of historic Parkville. Pro tip: don’t skip the Wagyu burger land-lovers’ friends can enjoy alongside the catch of the day.

🔥 Fettermans Parkville Grand Opening & Menu Rundown

Fettermans has officially lit its smokers at Creekside (7069 Elizabeth St.), bringing its signature deli-market vibe to Parkville. Dive into hearty Reuben sandwiches on Liscio’s hoagies ($12), towering beef brisket plates ($14), and pulled-pork sammies ($9), plus sides like mac & cheese and baked beans for just $3.25 a pop. Early-bird moms will love the latte-freebie deal (with any purchase) this May—because nothing says “Happy Opening” like a caffeine kick. And yes, their Instagram-worthy cookie sandwiches (just $5) are worth writing home about.

🎶 Perfect Pitch Summer Concert Series Kicks Off

  1. Ready to rock your picnic blanket? Creekside Parkville’s Perfect Pitch Summer Concert Series Friday, June 14 (Jason Craig & The Wingmen), from 7–9 PM each night. There’s no cover charge—just bring lawn chairs, your favorite snacks (homemade lemonade encouraged), and a willingness to dance like nobody’s watching. Between toe-tapping covers and original tunes under the open sky, it’s the easiest “date night” slash “family night” you’ll find this season.

In case you missed it

🚧 Missouri Route 1 (NE Antioch Road) Corridor Upgrades Begin

MoDOT is gearing up for a full corridor overhaul on Missouri Route 1 (NE Antioch Road) from Route 152 south to NE 42nd Street, with work advertised May 2025 and wrapping up in stages through 2028. Highlights include pavement rebuilding from NE 64th–72nd Streets, full-depth resurfacing between Route 152 and NE 72nd, new curb and gutter, slope stabilization under I-35, and an ADA-compliant pedestrian underpass near NE 43rd. Expect phased lane closures and signed detours—so maybe skip the drive-through coffee run until construction crews clock out.

That’s it for today.
