Arlington-based French pastry shop Eclairons could be moving into the former Firehook Bakery location in Old Town, Washington Business Journal reported.
The Journal reported that Eclairons, which opened early in the pandemic, leased the 2,4000-square-foot space at 430 S. Washington Street. The location has been a bakery since 1970 — first as Shuman’s Bakery, then Firehook since 2004.
Eclairons offers a range of pastries, breakfast sandwiches, and more.
