Two Fat Cats in the West End

Two Fat Cats (website, facebook, instagram) is opening a new location in the West End at 175 Spring Street adjacent to Chocolat Passion.

Owner Stacy Begin shared that the new location will be a bakery, cafe and market which will serve soups, salads and sandwiches, and their house-made baked goods as well as sell market staples, prepared meals. The menu for the cafe is still under development but the draft menu includes items like breakfast sandwiches, overnight oats with buckwheat honey and berries, seasonal salads, soups, a Cape Cod Chicken Salad sandwich, and a Banana Fluffer Nutter sandwich.

The Lancaster Street location in West Bayside will remain the primary production bakery for Two Fat Cats as well as a retail shop and a place where customers can pre-order a custom cake or desserts for events.

Construction has already begun on the 2,477 sq ft space. Begin hopes to open the new Two Fat Cats sometime in October. Initial thoughts on hours of operation are that they’ll be open Tuesday through Saturday, 7:30 am – 4 pm, and Sundays 9 am – 2 pm.

Two Fat Cats was founded on India Street. An outpost in South Portland opened in 2018 and the Portland location moved to West Bayside in 2020. Begin announced the closure of their South Portland location last month.
