Tin Pan Bakery on Brighton Ave has announced plans to close later this month. Their Facebook post reads in part,
It is with mixed emotions that I have to announce the end of Tin Pan. Over the past nine years we have weathered inflation, tight labor markets, a pandemic, ingredient shortages, and more, including my own inexperience with business and some questionable decisions. But it turns out I can’t keep enduring arthritis and its constant toll on my aging joints, which makes this decision sad but inevitable…Lindsay and I are filled with gratitude for the kindness of our customers and your willingness to entrust your family celebrations with us. Fortunately Portland has many excellent bakeries and we know we leave you in good hands.
