New Cascadia Traditional Bakery is Moving
Last week New Cascadia Traditional Bakery hinted around that they would have a special announcement and it came today. They’re moving to a new location in June. In addition, it looks like they’ll be serving Stumptown coffee and a selection of teas. That’s awesome! I’m all ready to sit down on an easy Portland afternoon with a cup of coffee and eat a delicious gluten-free treat. We are big fans of New Cascadia Traditional Bakery.
Their new location will be 1700 SE 6th Ave at SE Market (two blocks south of Hawthorne.) They will be at their current address on NW Glisan up next to Trader Joe’s until June 15.
Hipcooks Survey Reminder
We’ve teamed up with Monika at Hipcooks to bring you a full-blown survey! Take a minute or two to fill out this survey (survey has ended). Monika is hoping to use the information to plan more gluten-free classes at Hipcooks.
Mariposa Bakery Announces New Breads
This isn’t exactly Portland, but while we’re talking about our favorite bakeries, Mariposa Gluten Free Bakery in Oakland California has announced that they have revamped their sandwich bread, baguette, and challah to make them even tastier.
Gina says
While I’m pleased that New Cascadia is doing so well and expanding, I wish they were staying in Northwest! I go there regularly on my lunch break, and now their SE location won’t be convenient at all. Dang! Is there any way we can get them to have a booth at the King farmer’s market in Northeast – or keep their kiosk in Northwest?
Lorraine says
The only reason to visit New Cascadia is to be amused by the slowest service outside of a spoof on bad service you might see on SNL. Even when the workers outnumber the customers, these people are sadly inept and totally lost. The bread is beautiful, but extremely dense, and with unpleasant aftertastes. Very disappointing.
Dave says
Sorry to hear you had a bad experience. We reviewed their bread and a cinnamon roll a while back and (like you) felt like they were too dense. We went when they had just opened and also felt that they were kind of disorganized, and could use a decorator. But we wrote that off because they had just opened.
You should try their cupcakes and/or coffee cake, though. They’re awesome!
