I haven’t walked by recently, but according to the NY Times, bakery and cafe Sweet Melissa, at 276 Court St., is shuttered for good. Though she has another shop in Park Slope, owner Melissa Murphy decided to close her original store because of rising rents in the hood. The expanded bakery also included the Cremerie, which was a nice stop for an ice cream cone on a hot day. Wonder who’ll be able to afford to rent such a large space on Court St.? Anyone have any thoughts?

    The food was good but the service was so bad.

    I just hope it’s not another burger joint!

    That’s terrible! How sad. It was such a lovely establishment. I hate seeing empty windows on Court Street.
