Quick Update:

The building applications are in and we have had some good conversations with the town BUT the whole process is currently stalled over parking.

We are now working to try to get a parking study put together as soon as possible (just found out about the need for this on Friday when we went in with cash in hand to apply for the minor variance) So, at minimum, we are now another month out before we get the building and change of use permits and are able to announce who will be reopening the cafe!

Essentially, without the town/residents’ approval for the parking the cafe will not be able to be reopened

Thank you again for all the amazing support and kind words! We are doing our best to keep the cafe and hope to see everyone soon for a scone!

So excited to (FINALLY) have our permit applications in to the town!

That’s right, as long as everything goes well, there will be a new cafe in the Glen!

Thank you to all the locals who have popped over when we have been at the building to say hi. You have all been so supportive and we look forward to seeing everyone inside for a cuppa soon!

Dear Glen Oven Customers,

We have temporarily shut down for updates and renovations. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to give as much notice as we would have liked. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. We will keep you updated on progress, and hope to serve you again in the near future.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

As many of you know we have recently sold the business to a lovely couple named, Jacquie and Bruno. They are opening Saturday March 4th as the new owners of the Glen Oven Café. They are a wonderful addition to continue the bakery in the heart of Glen Williams. I have written a thank-you/goodbye note that is posted on the café door but I would also like to post it here as a final goodbye. If you are free on Saturday March 4th, stop by the bakery and introduce yourselves to Jacqui and Bruno as I know they are looking forward to meeting you all.

" Dear Glen Oven Cafe Customers,
Almost 9 years ago I had a dream to open a Tea Room in England, as luck would have it I was able to buy the Glen Oven Cafe in Glen Williams in 2008 and run the business for 8 years. The Glen Oven Cafe has literally been my home for this time. As my last few days here draw to an end, it is with a heavy heart but also with many happy memories of the business and life we have built here.
The Glen Williams Village and community is like no other. We will be forever grateful for the local support and kindness we experienced during our time here.
I would like to thank all of our loyal and supportive customers that we have had the pleasure of serving these past 8 years. Our goal was to offer great food with friendly service and a charming atmosphere that people could enjoy with their family and friends. We hope that we have provided that for you over the years and we thank you for all your wonderful and kind comments to support us along the way.
A big thank you to all my current staff and previous employees whom I could not have managed without. Thank you to Doug, Kathy, Liddy and Cassy who guided me from the beginning.
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to my family and friends for all their help in many different forms over the years. This was truly a family run business.
Thank you to my husband Steve for helping to build the business and for always listening and being so understanding. To my Mum and Sister Holly for always being there and providing unconditional support. And finally to my Dad, my inspiration for starting a business of my own, for always being positive and for providing me with an opportunity to fulfill a dream.
We wish the new owners great success and look forward to seeing the Glen Oven Cafe continue to thrive in the heart of Glen Williams.
All the very best,
Jenny Humphreys
