Sad news for longtime residents of Walnut Creek, California–the Larkey Market and Deli is closing permanently.
The closure was announced on November 28, 2023 via a Facebook post.
The owners said that they are closing Larkey Market with a “heavy and grateful heart.”
The small market, located in an otherwise suburban area on the Northern end of Larkey Park in Walnut Creek, was a beloved local hangout. It was also a bit of an aberration, in a community that’s otherwise mostly homes.
No specific reasons were given for the closure.
Sources indicate to the Bay Area Telegraph that Larkey Market will be replaced by a new location of Rooted Coffee. Rooted Coffee may retain the market function of Larkey Market, while adding a more extensive coffee shop to the location.
