Something has shifted along Colleyville Boulevard this year, and if you have lived here for a while you have probably felt it without naming it. The stretch between Cheek-Sparger and Glade used to send you to Southlake or Grapevine for anything new. This summer it does not. Between February and late May, four independent food and drink concepts opened within a mile of each other, a fifth is under lease for a late-year debut, and the city's marquee summer event sold out its reserved tables weeks before showtime. The story of Colleyville right now is a dining corridor filling in faster than the event calendar can keep up with, which is why the city is leaning harder than ever on Heroes Park and the City Hall Plaza to absorb the crowds.
Here is what is actually happening between now and Labor Day, and what it says about the neighborhood you already live in.
The Colleyville Boulevard build-out
If you drive the boulevard every day, the pace of change this spring was hard to miss. Four openings in roughly one hundred days is not a coincidence. It is a signal that operators who study the trade area have concluded Colleyville can now support concepts that used to bypass it.
