Made in Montgomery, For Decades
a better brownie, and everything that followed...
1979: A Better Brownie
Nonna Lisa began baking brownies and confections in 1979 for friends, family, and coworkers. Made with the world's finest chocolates and the purest ingredients, and absolutely no preservatives, they quickly earned her a loyal following.
1987: The First Shop
In 1987 she opened the first shop on Cooper Road in Montgomery, and soon expanded into a second building, the "Haute Studio."
Room to Grow
A move to a larger building on Montgomery Road brought more space and many more goodies: Nonna Lisa's Brownies, buckeyes, truffles, molded chocolates, and gifts.
Back to Old Montgomery
After about a decade, the building became problematic, so the shop moved back into the heart of Old Montgomery, a more intimate space where chocolate could stay the focus.
Coming Home to Montgomery Road
After more than 15 years at our current spot, we're moving back to Montgomery Road. With a newly renovated building and a new cafe concept, we're bringing a bigger and better Haute experience, with in-house creations from chocolate to baked goods to coffee drinks.
The Next Chapter
After more than four decades of sweet memories, Nonna Lisa is handing over the reins to Matt, Oriana, and Geoff Holmes. We're honored to carry her legacy forward with the same care, the same quality, and the same love of chocolate. Thank you for being part of our story. We can't wait to see you.
Our strength, your weakness.
