More nostalgia
A pop-up version of the famed Peach Pit diner from Beverly Hills 90210 is coming to Melrose soon. The one-off party runs August 2 and 3 only, inside the former Johnny Rockets space on Melrose. Per Variety, there will be burgers, milkshakes and “nostalgic photo ops” galore, as Fox looks to restart the popular Beverly Hills 90210 once again, with the new series airing August 7. Reservations are already sold out, but walk-ins will be accepted.

The landlord says a fire knocked out the power, and she is unsure of when it will return, as she’s dealing with permitting from the city.
