From the EVG tipline: Westville Bakery closed as of Sunday on Ninth Street between Avenue A and First Avenue.
While there isn't any official notice of a closure, temporary or permanent, the shop was not open yesterday during usual business hours ... the space also looked as if someone emptied it out.
No one from Westville responded to an email or Instagram message about the closing.
Meanwhile, the tipster tells us that Superiority Burger will be taking over this space.
And the folks at Superiority confirmed the upcoming expansion, noting that they will also be keeping their current (and original and small) home across Ninth Street.
Superiority also confirmed that the new space will not be used for indoor seating, and they are still shaping up their future plans for the Ninth Street spaces...
Westville Bakery, which offered a variety of sweets and cafe fare, debuted here
in October 2018. It appeared to have a solid following — even after Sullivan Street Bakery moved in a few storefronts away
in October.
Superiority opened in the East Village
in June 2015... and has pretty much been a veggie juggernaut since it unleashed its first batch of quickly vintage Yuba-verde sandwiches and, say, hakurei turnip slaw.
