Thanks to everyone who let me know that Boudin Bakery & Cafe has closed in Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek on Wednesday. The yummy sandwiches and reasonable prices made this a favorite place to get a bite to eat. Having read the goodbye sign it looks like they’re trying to return to Broadway Plaza when it reopens in ‘late 2015’.
I’ll let a Boudin fan who wrote in have the last word:
Sadly, Boudin Bakery Cafe has closed due to the Broadway Plaza redevelopment. This store generously donated unsold food for many years to St. Vincent de Paul at St. Mary’s church in WC, and helped many people. Now, because Broadway Plaza has forced out many longtime tenants in order to “redevelop,” the restaurant had to close, as an alternate space apparently was not to be found. Many thanks to the fine folks at Boudin for their generosity over the years! Boudin represents an organization that clearly has the greater good in mind.
