A New York style bakehouse selling brownies, cookies and other baked goodies will open a new shop in Lincoln’s Waterside Shopping Centre next month.
42nd East Bakehouse opened a stall at Lincoln Central Market last summer, but after the first lockdown in March the firm decided not to reopen as it was already in discussions with Waterside Shopping Centre.
The Lincoln shop, which is located between the phone and vape stores, is fitted out and ready and was due to open during the week commencing November 2, but this was delayed by lockdown.
It is now hoped it will open on December 2, depending on government guidance.
The Lincoln store has created five new jobs, which in turn has led to two further positions at the Beverley site.
Customers will be able to order in store or via Uber Eats.

In less than a year the firm has already opened two sites in Leeds and Beverley in January and August respectively, with Lincoln to follow in December.
Lincoln shop manager Lee Edwards told The Lincolnite: “We are really excited to go into the Waterside and it will give us more of a high footfall area.
“The market was a great stepping stone for us in Lincoln and we have developed two more sites in Leeds and Beverley in less than a year and. have aspirations to open more next year.

Tenants living in a large block of council flats on Lincoln’s Ermine Estate have criticised the building’s “run down” condition, highlighting several issues.
Trent View residents, contending with problems such as excessive bird excrement and poor insulation, have also criticised City of Lincoln Council for its delayed handling of ongoing issues like leaks.
As people prepare to go out more in the run up to Christmas, a Lincoln woman who created the globally renowned Ask For Angela not-for-profit scheme is proud to have made the county, and the world, a safer place.
The scheme, launched by Hayley Crawford (pictured above) in 2016, aims to ensure that anyone who is feeling vulnerable or unsafe is able to get the support they need. This could be on a night out, a date, meeting friends and other situations, and it is available to everyone of all genders to help them feel safer.
