Haddon Heights Café That Adopted Smash-Hit Pickle Sandwiches Will Close

HADDON HEIGHTS, NJ — A Haddon Heights café, which gave new life to a beloved pickle business, will permanently close.

Simply Station's last day will be Dec. 15. Pickle sandwiches "will be done as of next week," but Simply Station will continue serving smoothies, protein shakes and energizers until the business's closure, according to Wednesday's announcement.

"Over the last two years we've had many successes all thanks to your support but unfortunately the cost of doing business has risen to a level we cannot sustain," the social-media announcement says.

Simply Station (517 Station Ave.) opened about two years ago, serving smoothies, protein shakes and more.

Earlier this year, Peace Love Pickles began selling its products out of Simply Station. The business — known for its smash-hit sandwiches that use pickles instead of bread — was making a triumphant return after closing its former locations in Haddon Township and Atlantic Highlands.

It's unclear what may be next for Peace Love Pickles — an independent entity that Simply Station does not own. Patch contacted Peace Love Pickles and will update with any response.
