Hopefully this place will eventually have weekend hours - I'm still going to prefer Shadau Breads to Busken, but its still good to see another business open downtown. The 9th street location was TERRIBLE.
From the Cincinnati Business Courier:
Busken opened a new downtown location today at Walnut and Seventh in a space owned by the Aronoff Center for the Arts.
This marks the fifth time the bakery has opened a store downtown.
“If we could survive the downtown business climate following the 2001 riots, I knew things couldn’t get much worse,” said Vice President Brian Busken in a news release. “It would be foolish to leave now, there is too much positive momentum and our city center is slowly but surely becoming a destination.”
The store, which has access to the Aronoff Center’s commercial kitchen, will focus on growing the bakery’s breakfast and lunch catering business. The catering, which is available to any downtown business 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, was previously operated out of Busken’s Ninth and Central location, which closed in preparation for the opening of the new store.
