The story so far...

After an incredible journey serving the waifs and strays of our neighborhood, Barney's will be closing its doors from today. We want to say a massive thank you to our brilliant, spirited customers and staff. You made this place what it was, and we've loved every bit of the caffeinated buzz.

What's Next?

While the coffee machine is turning off, the work continues elsewhere! I am shifting my full focus to my role as owner and operator of Endeavour Speech Pathology (ESP). We have some amazing programs running at the moment and more on the horizon. I am so excited to dedicate my energy and full attention to supporting our community through the work we do at ESP.

Thank you for the memories and the support. See you in the neighborhood!

With gratitude, David
