Welcome: Jefferson Market and Cakery to the Old West Side of Ann Arbor

The Old West Side of Ann Arbor has some wonderful aspects to it and one of these gems has been the Jefferson Market which has just been sold and the new business is:

Jefferson Market and Cakery

The new owner is Mary Rasmussen from Saline who fell in love with the building and location. It was purchased from the prior business owner and manager Jean Henry. Jefferson Market and Cakery will open with coffee and pastries at 7 a.m. except on Sunday and will also offer an array of lunch sandwiches. She will also handle wedding cake business and catering from Jefferson Market.

There is a suggestion box for the new owners. You know like, "will you still keep my favorite....at the new store?"

All of the Old West Side wants to know if she will get someone to make those wonderful fries that Jefferson Market has been known for and I personally loved the spinach. Yes, we still miss the old chef. But I digress here...we want to welcome to Mary and her new business!!

Welcome Jefferson Market and Cakery

Additional updates on the OPENING DATE will be covered at http://treetowntalk.com

I visited Ann Arbor for the first time last summer...or maybe it was early fall??? Ann Arbor is cute. Lots of fun to walk around.

Missy, I will buy you a cup of coffee there when it reopens. Do you know the business owner from Saline or her specialty cakes? I don't as yet. The Market is on Jefferson of course right across from Bach School.

Maureen, Thanks for stopping by and I love your outside blog as well. Very cool!

Both of you Twitter ... I'm trying to do so. Somehow I don't get it as yet.

Karen~i love the cute little mom and pop businesses. My grandpa had a business for a long time as well, in a building much like this one. I hope you are doing well and have a great weekend.
