Tim and Emily Lewis opened two new eateries in full COVID-19 dine-in ban mode. So they figured a month was ample time to relocate their established bakery, especially since such restrictions have all but been erased.
But the Springfield couple behind Three Twigs Bakery & Bistro are finding government regulations aren’t the only hurdles to opening a business a year into the pandemic.
The public will get its first taste of the bakery’s new home at 3429 Freedom Drive April 24 two weeks later than the Lewise originally planned to begin dine-in services.
And Emily is calling even that milestone more of a “celebration” than an actual opening.

Emily and Tim Lewis are taking Three Twigs Bakery to the west side of Springfield.
After an eventful 2020, the Lewis Family have signed a lease for the building formerly occupied by Pie’s The Limit at 3429 Freedom Drive, just in front of Target.
This new location will move the bakery from its current location on Toronto Road, which Emily Lewis tells the Springfield Business Journal was always meant to be temporary and will triple Three Twigs’ kitchen size.
If you recall, Three Twigs had originally planned to return to their downtown roots on East Adams, but the project never materialized. The Lewis’s also operate Biscuits + Brunch and The Salted Lemon Market & Creamery both located in the Montvale Junction Plaza.
Three Twigs Bakery has found a new home on Springfield’s west side but its departure won’t be leaving a vacancy on Toronto Road.
Owner Emily Lewis confirmed a contract has been signed to move the business to 3429 Freedom Drive, the former Pie’s the Limit site in Parkway Pointe. The bakery’s last day at 1370 Toronto Road is March 14.
However, fans still will be able to purchase the bakery’s scratch-made pastries from the address.
Brandon and Cana Austin are taking over the Toronto Road location, which will be home to Grateful Coffee Co. An early April opening is expected. The first-time business owners say the initial menu will serve a wide variety of hot and iced coffee drinks, sandwiches made with Three Twigs breads and Three Twigs pastries.
