When Kristine L’Heureux woke up in a cold sweat from a dream telling her to open a cafe a decade ago, she wrote down one thing: “Yahweh Cafe and Bakery.” Now, she’s preparing for the cafe’s grand opening on Saturday.

Yahweh Cafe and Bakery at 259 Main St. in downtown Old Town will offer baked goods ranging from loaves of bread to whoopie pies, along with tea and coffee.

The cafe will be the latest among several choices for coffee and baked goods in Old Town. L’Heureux said she saw a gap of cafes in the area and wanted to open in Old Town to meet resident’s desire for a place to sit down for coffee.

Half of the menu will be L’Heureux’s own recipes, including the multiple gluten free options that she fine tuned while baking for herself and others after being diagnosed with celiac disease.
