Another Scandinavian business closes

Another Scandinavian business has closed. The Scandinavian Bakery (8537 15th Av NW) closed its doors a little more than a week ago.

We’ve received emails about the abrupt closing of the store. “The owners made no announcement; there’s just a ‘Closed’ sign on the door,” Glenn emailed us. The Scandinavian Bakery has a fond place in his heart. “My parents took me there as a child, and I took my children there. It was a tradition,” he writes, “It will be missed by me and countless others.” This is the second Scandinavian business to close in the last year. Just last summer, Olsen’s Scandinavian Foods on Market Street closed.
Side note: When we went by this afternoon to take the photo, most everything inside has been removed except for a few display cases.
