4 months agoAfter 30 years, It's All Good Bakery suddenly goes dark
More than one tipster let us know that the longstanding, family-owned bakery It's All Good has shuttered. Signs on the door and in the window read: "We are permanently closed. Thank you for 30 years of support!" All of the windows have been covered with brown paper. The bakery was founded by Kim Cloud in 1996, operating for three decades, and was located at the site of The Black Panthers' first Oakland headquarters. Cloud proudly displayed Black Panther memorabilia in the bakery.
