Saint Cinnamon lasted in the Southland spot where Booster Juice is for quite a few years. Kind of like yogurt places (remember Yogurtys? Kind of in the spot where Sland Subway is & where ZamZam in Cornwall is), I think chain cinnamon bun places are fads that come/go.
Cinnabon in the GTA is constantly busy. Definitely not a fad. But I do see your point about local options. Just would love Cinnabon in Regina. My brother worked at Saint Cinnamon when he was younger and the old ladies that worked there were apparently mean beyond belief. I also remember loving Yogurty’s where EB games is now at the Southland Mall.
