We opened Nomad Bakeshop & Sandwich Bar on Bay St. back in December 2020 in an effort to keep our staff employed while we faced work shortages resulting from the pandemic. We also took the expansion as an opportunity to be able to open a kick-ass sandwich shop featuring house-made meats & toppings along with fresh baked artisan breads.
Our Journey
With every passing day, our love for the Bay & Algoma Neighbourhood grew stronger. In our first summer, we proudly opened our beloved patio. As time went by at our Bay St. location, we had our challenges with staffing shortages and limitations to our growth (as we didn’t have the space to have a kitchen on-site). Despite the challenges, we found ways to make it work so that we could open those doors everyday and serve each and every amazing customer we’ve had come through. In the last year, we really started to find our stride and were grateful for the amazing team of employees we had.
With our lease agreement coming to an end at 307 Bay Street, our future was unknown. That was until we found a location where we would have the opportunity to bring our Pinetree Catering kitchen & NOMAD all in one building.
With the new space, we would’ve been able to offer even more to our valued customers & employees.
Unfortunately, as one door closed, another door did not open for us. Our hopes of opening a new & better space were dashed as the deal fell apart. So here we are now:
Looking Ahead
Staying true to our name, after spending the summer of 2024 at Goods & Co. Market, we are now back to where it all began for us: Thunder Bay Country Market. Our nomadic journey continues…
We are currently working on an exciting project, our biggest yet. Stay tuned to our social media in the new year!
ABOUT US
Who We Are
Nomad was first opened by Pinetree Catering back in December 2018 inside the departure lounge of Thunder Bay Airport with the goal of delivering the taste and flavours of Northwestern Ontario to the rest of the world. In December 2020, we expanded and opened “Nomad Bakeshop & Sandwich Bar” at 307 Bay Street, right in the heart of the Bay & Algoma Neighbourhood. After enjoying nearly 3.5 years there, we had to say goodbye to our bakeshop & sandwich bar, closing our doors in March 2024. For the spring & summer of 2024, we were located inside Goods & Co. Market until the end of July. In true nomadic fashion, our journey has shifted us and we are now located at the Thunder Bay Country Market every Wednesday & Saturday.

Sandwich was pretty good! Ingredients were great. Service was nice, but by no means expedient. Outdoor or indoor seating available. Pricing is $3.50/100g. Build-your-own or choose from suggested combos.
