A Family Business
Meet, Josh & Stephen Palmer…
Behind the counter is a story as rich as the layers in their dough. Stephen and Josh Palmer, the father-son duo who co-founded Soigné, bring over 53 years of combined experience to the kitchen. Despite decades in the hospitality world, this marks the first time the Palmers have worked side-by-side professionally.
“At Soigné, we’re not just baking pastries—we’re reviving a craft,” says Josh Palmer. “Everything is done in-house, from scratch, every single day. Our guests will be able to taste the difference that care and time make.” “The name actually came from something Josh said early on when we were planning,” recalls Stephen Palmer. “He turned to me and said, ‘Whatever we make, it needs to be soigne.’ It’s something chefs say when a dish is beautifully executed—clean, precise, elegant. And that stuck with us. It became the standard we wanted to set, not just for the food, but for everything we do.”
