A Chapel Hill favorite returns in time for Thanksgiving meals and holiday gifts

Fans of Tonya’s Cafe and Bakeshop will be able to order meals and pies from a new, temporary Chapel Hill location in time for Thanksgiving, the restaurant announced Wednesday. Owner Tonya Council was forced to close the Chapel Hill cafe after a Sept. 19 fire caused significant damage, including from water and smoke. The storefront in The Galleria shopping center at 400 S. Elliott Road is undergoing renovations and no opening date has been announced. While there’s no word yet on when Tonya’s Cafe and Bakeshop will reopen, Tonya Council and her staff are moving forward with a pop-up location by mid-November, just in time for the holidays. The new Tonya’s Bakeshop & Gifts will open on the first floor of 900 Willow, next to Silverspot Theater at University Place mall. It will offer Council’s signature pecan crisp cookies, other desserts, holiday gift boxes and Southern specialty foods, according to a news release. The storefront will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and will also serve as a pickup location for pre-ordered Thanksgiving meals, a la carte sides and pies and Take & Bake orders. Pre-orders can be placed online through Nov. 21 at tonyascafe.com/thanksgiving
