WPA Bakery made the announcement on Facebook yesterday.

We have some bitter-sweet news. Church Hill has been our home for 8 years. We couldn’t have asked for a better neighborhood to be a part of.
During these crazy times we have been forced to reassess our situation to ensure that we come out strong and vibrant on the other side of the pandemic.

We’ve concluded that the best solution is to consolidate into one location. We will be merging with our Southside location at 3414 Semmes Ave starting in October. The good news is that Southside will be expanding its hours to 7 days a week from 7AM-6PM.

More sweet news is that we will be passing the torch to Jessie and Jackie, two talented sisters who have baked for us for some time. They are going to take over the space and start their new adventure with their own vision. We know that you are going to love them!

We hope our Church Hill regulars can cross the river from time to time to visit us whenever you get a hankering for a breakfast sandwich and a canele or 12. We will miss seeing your faces every day.
