The Wooden Spoon, a locally owned eatery known for its baked goods and breakfast and lunch offerings, has closed its doors, according to a message posted on the business’s Facebook page.
In the post, owners announced that the closure was effective immediately and includes all outstanding orders for cookie baskets, pastries, breakfast, and lunch. The announcement was met with an outpouring of support and well wishes from customers who had followed and supported the business. A Bossier City staple since it opened in 1983, the business was acquired by new owners two years ago.
“We extend our deepest gratitude to each and every customer who supported us over the past two years and helped make this journey truly unforgettable,” the post stated. “We also wish to express our heartfelt thanks to our incredible employees, whose dedication, hard work, and passion made The Wooden Spoon what it was.”
The Wooden Spoon opened under new ownership two years ago and quickly became a familiar stop for local residents, offering a menu that emphasized fresh-baked items and comfort-style meals. Supporters frequently praised the business for its quality food and friendly service.
The Facebook post encouraged customers to watch for upcoming announcements related to “Bagel Boss Lady,” noting that bagels will continue to be available in the future.
No additional details about the closure or future plans were immediately available.
