Its been announced that Mark Toneys have closed down. The cafes in Grainger St and Percy St as well as the stand in the Grainger Market have served generations of families with frothy coffee. Knickerbocker Glories and French salad sandwiches amongst other things. The direct descendants sold it on to a distant relative in 2022. We were in a couple of weeks back and it was almost empty and to be honest the sandwiches we got were very poor value for money so it seems the writing had been on the wall for a while.
