The current issue of Style Weekly takes a look at the recent openings of Proper Pie & WPA Bakery, and the coming of Sub Rosa Bakery:
Church Hill is a magnet for food excellence these days, with three new businesses opening in the same month and others on the way. In addition to Sub Rosa Wood Fired Bakery, now quartered at 620 N. 25th St., customers are flocking to WPA Bakery and Proper Pie Co. for baked items that span the ages and the continents. All three long-awaited openings managed to intersect in November — just in time for holiday stuffing.
Sub Rosa is expected to open the week after Thanksgiving.

In the tradition of Nolde Bakery.
There were also many many small bakeries/confectionaries throughout the area. When I was researching the history of 325 North 27th Street, I kept running across ’em.
Love it, history repeating in a good way 🙂
I took my 15 month old on a mini-bakery stroller tour this morning. We got a muffin at WPA, bought bread at Sub Rosa, and then played on the Chimborazo Elementary Play ground. [We got dinner from Proper Pie on Friday night.}
