Editor’s note: The following announcement was made on the Sweet Spot Bakehouse Facebook page.
Hey folks, we have some bittersweet news to share—
At the end of August we will be closing the Bakehouse location of the Sweet Spot.
We are so grateful for our time in Whitewater and are so proud of what our team has accomplished over the past 5 years— bringing you freshly baked scratch pastries, morning coffees through our drive through, and working to be better every day.
While the doors at 1185 W Main will be closing, our two other locations— the Cafe in downtown Whitewater and the Langholf in Fort Atkinson— will continue to be open for your daily caffeine needs. We are working on a solution to provide pastries at these locations as well.
Our closing is coming much quicker than anticipated due to factors beyond our control. We know it will sadden many of you, and you may have questions about what comes next. We ask that you please refrain from asking our staff and instead direct them to our email: contact@sweetspotwhitewater.com
We’ll announce our official end date soon, but we will not be taking custom orders past August 24th. We will be open daily from 7am-4pm until then.
Where one door closes, another opens. This decision will allow us to invest more time and energy into our other ventures, and into our personal lives and communities. We hope that down the road, we can reopen our bakery in a new capacity (perhaps with a partner— and if this interests you, we’d love to chat!).
For now, we hope to see you for a cup of coffee at one of our other locations! Running a small business is no easy feat, and it takes a village. Thank you to our staff, customers, and everyone who has supported us for the past 5 years. We hope that you continue to support your local businesses— not just our shops or even the ones in Whitewater, but in every community wherever you go. Supporting small matters in big ways.
Editor’s note: There are many online comments indicating that this property at 1185 W. Main Street will be the site for a Dunkin’. Attempts by The Whitewater Banner to confirm this report with the current owners or with a manager of the Fort Atkinson Dunkin’ have thus far been unsuccessful.
