Beloved Newtown Cafe Rolling Penny Is Shutting Its Doors Next Month After Six Years on King Street
You've got just three more weeks to get your hands on the cafe's legendary burgers and brekky rolls.
After six years on south King Street, much-loved cafe Rolling Penny is set to close its doors for good next month. Owners Robin and Duncan announced that the cafe's last day of service will be Sunday, October 9, via a statement on Instagram.
"All good things apparently must come to an end," their post reads. "Over the past 6 years we've seen loving couples have children, we've had pandemics and natural disasters come through the wazoo, we've seen south king street develop into the thriving amazing community it is now. The memories we have made serving all you amazing people can never be forgotten and the impact rolling penny has made on all of us will surely not be forgotten and will be remembered by every single person that has stepped through those doors."
While we don't have any news on what's next for the Rolling Penny team, the owners' statement did finish by hinting at the possibility of future ventures, stating: "For now its time for a well earned break and we promise you in some shape or other that rolling penny will be back. This isn't a goodbye, it's a casual see ya later darling."
Rolling Penny has built a cult following over the years through its commitment to fresh produce and interesting takes on breakfast classics, including its top-notch burgers and brekky rolls. It also hosted a range of events and pop-ups throughout the years, even acting as the initial home to the Baba's Place team before they would go on to open their Marrickville warehouse restaurant.
The cafe is open seven days a week and is walk-in only, so if you want to head in for one last roast chicken or smoked bacon roll before it closes, you'll have to make the journey to Newtown and hope you can nab a table.
