The Scoop: Pint Size to move to new Lindenwood Park home

  After nearly two years searching for additional elbow room, the owners of Pint Size Bakery have signed a lease to move to 3133 Watson Road in early spring 2016, as reported by Feast. The new location will feature some indoor seating and more space for customers to browse the pastry case and prepare their coffee on busy Saturday mornings. “People will actually be able to enjoy a cup of coffee,” said co-owner Christy Augustin. “It will be more comfortable. Customers won’t have to squeeze around people to put cream and sugar in their coffee. There will still be a line probably, but people won’t feel as rushed.” In addition to more breathing room for customers, the kitchen space will increase, allowing the bakery to accommodate more specialty orders like wedding and birthday cakes. “It’s terrible to turn away a birthday cake for a little kid that we’ve known since he was born and now he’s 1, but we can’t do his cake because we just don’t have the room.” The expanded square footage will also allow the 3½-year-old bakery to shorten lead times, cutting order times from three weeks in advance to as little as a week or a few days. The bakery may also expand its hours by an hour or so during the week.
