Thanks for the info Geeky Swedes. I stopped by the bakery in the market today and chatted with one of the employees about the Ballard space. They are so stoked about it! I am stoked.

Is it too early for the pre-opening camp out? I can see it now…folks lined up for blocks. I'd hate to miss out…

What's wrong with Taco del Mar? Yeah, it's a chain, and it's not wildly interesting food, but the place seems clean and pleasant to me.

Can't wait to have a new bakery!

yes WELCOME - I'm just across the street so I'm realy looking forward to this.

Finally they didn't tear soemthing down and build a condo! These are the sort of business we need to help the neighborhood thrive. Not more condo's with crappy stores in the bottom.

Who needs a bartells anchoring the old dennys? Realy? Is a 24 hour walgreens and a safeway pharmacy at the intersection not enough? Are we going to tear down the gas station and build a 4th pharmacy? There are 4 corners at the intersection after all.

Their meatloaf sandwich is the perfect anecdote to a cold and rainy day like today. I …cannot…wait….!

Yippee! It's not a new sushi place or pizza parlor! We finally get to have bagels and other yummy baked goods! Ich bin gluchlich!

Ooh…I hope they sell sandwiches there. That salmon sandwich is awesome and only $6. Great news! I always like to see non-chain stuff (and non-sushi, non-pizza) land here in Ballard.

Hooray! I haven't had one of Three Girls' massive sandwiches in far too long!

This will be a retail location as well as their bakery. We re-wrote the top of the post to clarify.

good question… hopefully somebody knows the answer! Would love to have another retail store here!!!

Thanks for reporting them, Reasonable! I went in there once and decided I couldn't do it again. I'd rather walk home a few extra blocks with cat litter.
On a brighter note: I saw plumber trucks in front of the place this afternoon. Working hard. May open on schedule. :-)

i reported that pet store once, and they closed shortly after. i walked by after hours once and saw puppies running a muck. some had ripped open a giant trash bag that had been left on the floor near their pen (rather than being brought out to the dumpster less than 50 feet away) and were playing in the trash while one was drinking out of a mop bucket that had been left out and could have had god only knows what chemicals in it. it broke my heart.

They are just thinking commercial bakery right? I know they have been looking for a new baking site since their last was lost to redevelopment on Queen Anne. They have done baking off site for years, and only retail site is in Pike Market. It would be cool if they opened up for retail in Ballard, but I didn't read that they are planning to do that.

Ice cream shops don't fair to well in Ballard (RIP Baskin Robbins, Ben & Jerry's)…although scoops is good. It's next to Rain City Video on Sunset Hill.

I would personally miss my fish taco's if Taco Del Mar went away.

It sounds wonderful. We will definitely be going there a lot.The place will definitely smell better than it did as a pet shop.

When I first read the headline and the former pet store, I thought it was a three “dog” bakery store. I was very confused as to why all of you humans were talking about eating their goods. Now i see, three girls. Definitely excited about that location getting spruced up and it being a bakery.

Yay!
Now they just need to get rid of that disgusting Taco Del Mar and bring back Baskin & Robins to make it an awesome block for the summer.

I've always suspected they were puppy mill puppies. But……
Happy to have a bakery there. It's a much better occupant.

I'd run there, but I'd stroll proudly back…

Wow! How cool. I really like their stuff. i am so happy that eye sore, stinky pet store is now gone for good!

Good, and be safe, run with a friend!
