Would a Dave & Busters Work Here?

Ever since Macy’s closed up shop at Otay Ranch Town Center, the rumor mill has been working overtime. The latest buzz? Dave & Buster’s might be moving in. And honestly, I’m here for it.

Word on the street is that D&B is scouting locations in Chula Vista, so this isn’t completely out of left field. Nothing’s official yet, but a girl can dream, right?
Then there’s the Costco crowd (and let’s be real, that’s most of us). Sure, the space is there, but Costco without a gas station? That’s like chips without salsa—technically possible, but why would we do that to ourselves?

But here’s where my Instagram followers really came through with the good ideas: Why don’t we have a proper Hispanic or Asian market in Eastlake? Seriously, how is there no Northgate, Carnival, H-Mart, or Zion here? It’s 2025, people. This is a missed opportunity of epic proportions.

The Dave & Buster’s idea is getting plenty of love, though. Arcade games, wings, and questionable life choices on a Tuesday night? Sign me up.

What do YOU think should fill that space? Drop your ideas in the comments or hit me up on Instagram. Let’s manifest the Eastlake we deserve.
