The Melrose Free Press/Wicked Local is reporting that Breads 'n Bits of Ireland, which is located on Main Street in the city's downtown area, will be shuttering in June. The article mentions that the bakery, which first opened more than 23 years ago, is closing down because the owner is "past retirement age and is ready for a break."
[July 2 update: Based on a note from a veteran poster on the Chowhound site, Breads 'n Bits of Ireland is now closed.]
Breads 'n Bits of Ireland has featured an array of baked goods over the years, including scones, Irish bread, and soda muffins. The bakery is also known for its soups, sandwiches, and beef stew.
The address for this soon-to-close bakery in Melrose is: Breads 'n Bits of Ireland, 530 Main Street, Melrose, MA, 02176.
