Elephant & Castle, a staple in Greenwich Village for more than five decades, is set to close permanently on August 17, 2025. The eatery, named after a historical British pub, announced its closure via its website. It follows a trend of beloved Village establishments shutting down. The restaurant was known for its famed brunch dish, Eggs'n Apples Benedict. Patrons expressed sadness over the closure, and longtime supporters lamented the loss of a special meeting place in the neighborhood.
"We are sad to announce that Elephant & Castle NYC will be permanently closing on Aug. 17th, 2025. We thank you all for your support over the last 50 years!"
"There might not be a better meeting of sweet and savory on a breakfast plate in the history of mankind. There also might be no greater threat to our existence."
