After nearly 38 years of our ownership and 88 years in the Andersonville neighborhood, Swedish Bakery will be closing on February 28, 2017. Changing times have dictated an honest evaluation of our business. Based on that review, it is time to call a close and exit the stage. We have enjoyed a good run, but as Chaucer wrote, “all good things must come to an end.”
With our thanks and gratitude for years of patronage and support from all of our generations of customers, businesses, and neighbors, we are bidding a fond farewell.

-The Stanton Family & our entire staff
