Is Munch’s Reopening? St. Pete Eatery Teases Social Media Followers

ST. PETERSBURG, FL — Many in the St. Petersburg area were devastated when the family-owned Munch’s Restaurant & Sundries closed its doors for good at the end of December after 70 years in business.

The restaurant, most recently owned by Larry Munch, who took it over in the early 1990s, first opened at 3920 6th Street S. in 1952. It was put on the market for $2.7 million in June.

Though it closed last year, there might be more to come for Munch’s, which teased a possible reopening or some kind of future plans on its Facebook page.

“Who's ready for some Munchs. (sic) Who would love to see the gang together again? Exciting things to come your way,” the restaurant wrote.

Patch reached out to Munch’s for more details, but the restaurant is staying quiet about its plans, so far, simply promising, “This one’s going to be big.”
