The Oroweat bakery outlet store is closing, end of the day, this Wednesday, August 26th (not end of the month). The decision was made to close that day, rather than go until Friday or Saturday….
Despite what was speculated by some folks, last time this topic came up, there is no new location that’s been found in Seattle – or anywhere else.
To my mind, it’s just another sign of how Seattle keeps getting more expensive and any real bargains, for people on fixed incomes or limited incomes are disappearing.
I hope you will post something on this closure in time for people to avail themselves of what’s going to be left between now and Wednesday at five pm. To my knowledge, the store won’t close early; but then again, who knows how the last day will unwind?
The address is 9578 First Ave. N.E. and the phone number is (206) 985-1467.
Good bye bread, hello car prowling transients traveling with ease.
Shame on you! You make fun while many of us true neighbors lament the closing of a treasured neighborhood institution. This store was the greatest thing since sliced bread.
I can’t miss the opportunity to make another crusty comment!
Sorry to hear they are toast.
