Black Walnut Bakery Café is a family business story, with two locations in London- one on the Richmond row, less than a 3-minute drive from Western’s front gates, and the second is on the South-side of campus, about 8 minutes from the Ivey building. This business balances a homey feeling with modern touches to provide comfortable and relaxing settings to connect with fellow customers and communities.
In addition to the incredible atmosphere, Black Walnut has genuinely delicious food. This Cafe provides customers with from-scratch baked goods & pastries, in-house made savoury meals and their incredible in-store roasted coffee. One of our executives went to take a look- and said both the coffee, croissants, and cruffins (a combination of muffin and croissants with a custard filling) are to die for!
Due to the lockdowns, Black Walnut is fighting to save their business. They have had to let go of all their workers, and now only the managers are left, working to hopefully make it out of this unforeseeable lockdown period above water.
We ask that you please support this local business, you will not be disappointed, and you would be helping to save a dying family business that has been in the heart of London for 10 years.
