Press
Over the years, we have been privileged with a loyal fan base and are, in turn, grateful to have received acclaim of all kinds. From the customer emails to critical praise from local publications, each accolade fills us with a great deal of pride in the work we do and fills us with the inspiration to grow into the future.
Recently our English Muffins were featured on Only in Ohio, and the Sliders, exclusive to Findlay Market were featured on Cincinnati Magazine and we're thrilled by the continued attention as we grow into our Findlay Market community.
