After serving customers for five years, The Black Bear Café has been sold; Sault-based physiotherapy clinic will take over the space this fall
Restaurant goers will only have a few more opportunities to dine at a café that has grown to become a household name on St. Joseph Island.
Mary Lou Eckmeier, originally from the Sault, and her husband Roy, raised in the Barrie area, opened the doors to the bakery near Kents Corner in 2019. An old bakery had existed at the site before the Eckmeiers purchased it five years ago — but they didn’t initially consider themselves bakers. “We will continue to cook for you and serve you until then so please continue to follow us on Facebook,” they wrote. “We have many people to thank for the success we’ve had.”
