No stranger to running fast-paced mixed businesses, Daryl Hooper has taken over the Ross Street Café Diner and settled into his new role just like the 1950s memorabilia that surrounds the space — comfortably and with timeless charm.

After taking the reins from former owner Jodie Vincitorio last month, nothing has changed apart from the ownership.
The friendly team that customers know and love remains in place, and not a single piece of memorabilia has left the café.
Whichever way you look, this classic 1950s-style diner gives off a nostalgic vibe that transports you back in time.
If red booths, vinyl records, jukeboxes, and retro signage are your thing, this is a must-visit stop.
Open Monday to Friday for breakfast and lunch, customers can dine in and soak up the atmosphere or grab a meal to go.
From burgers to milkshakes and much more, the menu has something for everyone.
“I thank Jodie for the great job he’s done — he’s done an amazing job,” Daryl said.
“Nothing else needs to be done. I’m just settling in; everything is the same — business as usual.”
Whether you're after a hearty feed, a blast from the past, or just good vibes and great service, make sure to stop in at Ross Street Café Diner and see what all the fuss is about.
