Hudson County has become known for excellent dining experiences at every budget. The area’s rich cultural diversity has resulted in a wide cross-section of cuisine that nails local restaurateurs’ traditional heritages and boldly invents fusion tastes to draw crowds and kudos. Read on for a highlights tour of some of the many restaurants, cafes, and food trucks that are giving Hudson County its foodie credentials. 

So Many Choices!

Options for dining out in Hudson County just keep multiplying. Jersey City alone has close to 1K restaurants to choose from, with new eateries popping up all over the place. Neighborhoods like Newport in Jersey City — that previously quieted down in the evening without restaurants for residents — have seen a sudden flurry in new hot dinner spots. Multiple years of Wine Spectator Awards and our own Local Girl write-ups have likely brought on the need for table reservations at the most popular places. It seems that it’s Hudson County’s culinary moment in the sun. 

Recognizing Old-School Icons 

From the relatively recently established iconic locals like Zeppelin Hall (est. 2009) to the long-lived Fiore’s of mozz fame and glory (est. 1913), Hudson County has been performing fabulous culinary feats to manifest all our food fantasies for ages. We respect our elder restaurants even when their fare has changed with the times and the arrival of new generations — like Liberty House’s Maddy Rose, where the view is historical and majestic but the menu is fresh and fabulous.

Food + Drink

The post 94 Spots That Prove Hudson County, NJ is a Foodie Destination appeared first on Hoboken Girl.

Matcha has skyrocketed in the past year or so as the most popular drink on cafe menus. The green lattes that are all over your social media feed actually have roots in ancient Japanese history, but may soon vanish. Since the tea has a reputation for less jitters, more antioxidants, and other health benefits than traditional caffeine sources, it has seen an unprecedented increase in popularity around the globe. As a result of this sudden trajectory, though, and the conditions under which the tea is grown, supplies may soon run out. Read on to learn more about the rumored matcha shortage.

Matcha’s Rise to Global Stardom

Matcha is a stone-ground powder made from green tea leaves that are grown in the shade. Matcha has been used for centuries in Japan in traditional tea ceremonies. The tradition of drinking matcha was built on four principles: harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. 

Due to high concentrations of chlorophyll, L-theanine, and of course, caffeine, the drink is heavily praised as a “superfood” that has various health benefits. The drink is also praised as a coffee alternative for those who experience jitters or a “crash” from traditional caffeinated beverages, with added cognitive benefits for focus and mood from the l-theanine content. The high chlorophyll content is a product of the leaves being grown in the shade. These benefits have resulted in an international explosion in demand in the past two years, with most cafes serving strawberry, lavender, pumpkin spice, and even banana bread matcha lattes.

In conversation with The New York Times, Matchaful owner Hanah Habes explained the causes of the shortage and related ‘knockoff’ teas. There are different “grades” of matcha quality, including ceremonial and culinary grades. Ceremonial grade matcha, which is also known as “first flush” matcha, is from the first harvest in the spring. Since in previous planting seasons, the demand for the tea leaves was much less than it is right now, supplies of ceremonial-grade matcha are set to run out.

Remy Morimoto Park, commonly known by her online usernames Veggiekins and Matcha Mommy, is a vegan food, matcha, and lifestyle social media creator. She is also the author of a cookbook and owns a matcha business. Her matcha business, Frauth, collaborated earlier this year with Hoboken-born salad chain, Alfalfa, on vanilla matcha bliss balls. In her cookbook Sesame, Soy, Spice , she includes a recipe for a “Dirty Jersey Diner Plate” reflecting on nostalgic experiences at New Jersey diners as a child growing up in Fort Lee.

A post shared by Remy Morimoto Park (@veggiekins)

She started Frauth in 2024, after six years in the making. About the growth of the matcha industry, she said, “At that time, matcha was gaining popularity but it was nowhere near as mainstream as it is today. I think what has changed the most is the general understanding of what matcha is and the appreciation for a higher quality of matcha. ” She continued that the growing understanding of different matcha qualities today was not the case six years ago, and consumers’ appreciation for quality is beneficial to matcha brands like hers.

Remy is part Japanese, so matcha was introduced to her early on, and it was regularly served with wagashi, or sweet treat,s and after meals. She was motivated to create her brand partially because she found it difficult to find high-quality tea in the States, having been “spoiled” by her grandmother, who brought back tea from her favorite regions in Japan. 

 “The matcha shortage is already in effect. All businesses will be impacted a bit because there is now an increased demand for matcha, but the available quantity has not increased [in fact, this year’s harvest yield was negatively impacted because of the weather conditions]. Prices will increase and as the average consumer becomes more aware of higher quality matcha, the demand for higher grades of matcha [typically more limited in yield per year] will also increase,” Remy shared with The Hoboken Girl, “Essentially, everyone wants to get their hands on matcha but the industry cannot handle the demand and it will take some time before that is possible. I don’t think it will impact the East Coast specifically differently, but those in the US could be subject to price increases due to tariffs and import fees.”

“Because higher quality matcha is harvested only once a year, first flush/harvest matcha will not be easy to secure. There is a fixed quantity available per year,” she added. 

Given her platform, Remy has made countless latte (and food) recipes using the tea powder, but some standouts include her Matcha Jelly Latte, Cantaloupe Matcha Latte, and, of course, the seasonally appropriate Pumpkin Spice Matcha Latte.

While the powder is a superfood, many coffee shops in the area have gotten creative with the different ways the tea can be incorporated into a decadent latte. The drinks are made similarly to espresso lattes, adding a shot of matcha as the caffeine source. The Hive, Mojo, Empire Coffee + Tea, Hidden Grounds, The Little Local, Hey Coffee People, and Jane’s Matcha have all integrated matcha lattes into their menus with multiple spins on the drink. Some examples include the Strawberry Matcha Latte at Hey Coffee People, Hidden Grounds’ Rose and Coconut Matcha Elixirs, and the Lavender Matcha Latte at Empire. Matcha can also be used in place of espresso in your favorite seasonal beverages, including a Spiced Brown Sugar Matcha at Mojo Coffee and the Iced Maple Berry Matcha at Lil’ Dove.

Abbe Rivers of Empire Coffee and Tea shared that while she has not felt the impact of the shortage yet, the signs can be seen in Los Angeles, where cafes are being hit especially hard. While Abbe is not sure about if or when a shortage will be felt, the already-expensive product is getting pricier. “Price increases will be based on both supply shortages and tariffs. We’ll be looking at approximately a 10-20% price increase, which we will unfortunately have to implement once our prices go up.  We love our customers and will do our best to absorb as much as possible,” Abbe said.

One Jersey City company entirely dedicated to matcha drinks, Jane’s Matcha, first launched during the 2024 Riverview Farmer’s Market. Jane first discovered matcha as a high school student when she worked as a boba-rista at the now-closed Grumpy Bobas in Somerville. She realized that the tea worked better for her than other caffeinated beverages, and cited the meditative process of whisking the tea that she would look forward to every morning. She wanted to bring high-quality, hand-whisked matcha beverages to her neighborhood in Jersey City, which is where she first applied to bring her new passion project. 

Soon after her first setup at the Riverview Farmers Market, the shortage began to show itself.  “The matcha shortage has impacted this year in a lot of different ways. I had to take off the first few weeks of the farmers market season because the producers we’d worked with the previous year were extremely low on their spring harvests and were waiting for 2025’s harvest season to replenish their stock,” Jane said. Explaining the different types of matcha and the different ways each will be impacted, she said, “The shortage is heavily impacting single-origin, first spring harvest. Essentially, higher-quality matcha that can only be picked once a year. Unfortunately, the pricing increases have already started for high-quality matcha, but we’re trying to keep our cafe prices as consistent as we can.”

Other types of hand-whisked green tea, including hojicha, a darker roasted green tea usually made with sencha or bancha tea leaves, also appear on Jane’s regular menu. The cacao-ish flavored drink may grow in popularity as a result of the shortage, according to Jane. One of the core principles of Jane’s Matcha, she said, is keeping ingredients as local as possible. One of her favorite beverages on the menu, and most popular, is the Honeycomb Matcha. For the drink, Jane uses honeycomb from the Riverview Garden in Jersey City Heights, Beekeeper, Roger. Seasonal drinks like the Peaches + Cream and Blueberry Matcha drinks have used local produce from RH farms. About upcoming winter beverages and broadening tea variations to adjust to the shortage impacts, Jane said, “I’m excited to try out some new holiday drinks as well, especially with hojicha! I think the natural, nutty, roasted flavor of hojicha pairs well with more cozy flavors that we’ll start to test in the upcoming months.”

A Hamilton Park coffee shop is making its way further downtown in Jersey City, while an Australian bakery is closing its doors. Local coffee shop O’Kafe is growing, announcing plans to expand to a second location at 351 Marin Boulevard and serve more of its signature coffee and smiles. The small business will be taking over the space that was home to  Bourke Street Bakery (and its sourdough bread) for nearly two years. Read on to learn what we know about Bourke Street Bakery’s closure and when to expect O’Kafe to open its new space. 

Bourke Street Bakery

The Australian bakery Bourke Street Bakery opened in The Hendrix apartment building at 331 Marin Boulevard in December 2023. It began as a small neighborhood cafe on Bourke Street in Sydney, Australia. It expanded all the way to New York City, with the first Manhattan location opening in 2019. The bakery was known for serving organic sourdough, sausage rolls, and flaky croissants. The owner even relocated to New York to keep the menu fresh by milling flour and making cheese for the bakery. As of December 2025, all other Bourke Street Bakery locations in New York City remain open. 

Per the Google listing for the space, the bakery is permanently closed. The Hoboken Girl reached out to Bourke Street Bakery for comment and will provide an update when we hear back. 

O’Kafe

O’Kafe has been part of the Hamilton Park neighborhood since 2018, located at 230 Pavonia Avenue. The cafe is a favorite for Jersey City locals, serving coffee, tea, pastries, and other breakfast and lunch foods. The menu also has plenty of vegan and gluten-free options. It’s typically full of families caffeinating before the work day, students stopping in for a quick bite, and remote workers typing away at their laptops with an iced tea. The coffee shop is open from 6:30AM to 6PM Monday through Friday, and 7AM to 6PM on Saturday and Sunday. 

According to an Instagram post from O’Kafe, the second location is planned to open in December 2025. The caption reads, “7 years ago, November 2018, O’Kafe Hamilton Park started. December 2025, a dream comes true with everyone’s support + love. You all made this happen.” Signage is already up outside The Hendrix with the same O’Kafe logo that sits above the door at the Hamilton Park location. 

O’Kafe shared with The Hoboken Girl they’re planning on opening the second location closer to December 25.

The post An A-Z List of Local Brick-and-Mortar Jersey City Businesses to Support appeared first on Hoboken Girl.

Living in Hoboken, we see stores open and close on a regular basis. Given that frequency, we realize it’s important now more than ever to support the ones that remain. We’ve had many, many questions from readers asking how they can support the local businesses that stand, and we have one simple answer — be a customer! Instead of buying sneakers on Amazon, head to Fleet Feet. Instead of getting Fresh Direct, head to Organic Basic Food or one of the other local grocery stores in town. Buy your coffee locally. There are still a ton of local businesses to support, and to make it easier for you, we’ve come up with a relatively comprehensive list of them, separated by category. All are brick-and-mortar and locally owned. See below for our list of Hoboken businesses to support every day.

Disclaimer: We came up with this list based on knowledge and research and are sure we will have many to add. No business was forgotten on purpose, so please let us know by emailing hello@hobokengirl.com if we missed any and we will add in ASAP!

From unmatched city views and green spaces to endless food choices and fun activities, we’ve rounded up a list of things we are grateful for in the community. Read on for 50 things we’re thankful for in Hudson County, New Jersey.

Great brunch options

Whether guests are looking for a super simple egg dish or a fancy, sit-down meal, Hudson County has endless options in Hoboken, Jersey City, and beyond.

Unmatched views of NYC

Frank Sinatra even agreed, Hudson County is the place to be for looking at the greatest skyline. Check out a waterfront restaurant or walk along the pedestrian path to catch a glimpse.

Diverse food options

Cuisine brings people together and being able to taste the world at home is a true privilege.

Walkability

Throughout recent years, both Hoboken and Jersey City have been named some of the most walkable cities in the state making grabbing a morning coffee or heading out to dinner very accessible.

Easy access to New York City

With exciting things to do off every PATH stop, getting into NYC is a breeze.

Appreciation for the arts

All around Hudson County, residents and visitors alike can take in the arts. See a play at Mile Square Theatre, check out over a dozen murals, or take a peek in one of the county’s art galleries.

The generosity of the community

Hudson County loves to give back and show its appreciation for its neighbors. Residents are known to lend a hand at a shelter soup kitchen, donate needed items, or simply share a smile around town.

Friendly small business owners

Home to numerous small businesses, shoppers and diners can count on being greeted by a friendly face.

Dog parks

Hudson County is filled with fun even for furry friends. Dogs can play all day in one of the area’s many parks and owners can build a new community.

Green spaces

Living in a city can sometimes mean sacrificing on lush outdoor space — but not in Hudson County. The many parks and recreational spaces are truly something to be thankful for.

Kid + adult classes

Learning never stops and many businesses make that possible around town. Enroll kids in fun and informative classes to improve motor skills or to learn a new language. Adults can take up a new hobby like pottery or cooking.

The best pizza

We can settle this age-old debate now. New Jersey has the best pizza.

Community resources like public libraries and parks

Being a part of a community that provides valuable resources for its residents is not something to take for granted.

Our first responders

Police officers, firefighters, healthcare professionals, and more, these individuals are the heart of our community as they selflessly ensure our health and safety.

Yummy desserts

No matter what the craving is, there’s a spot around town for it. Cookies, cakes, pies, matcha, ice cream — you name it — there’s likely a spot to buy it.

Farmers’ markets

Access to fresh, locally sourced produce alongside artisan makers is something to be thankful for all year. With many running weekly, there are always new surprises to enjoy.

Artisan shops

Shopping small keeps our cities running. Thankfully, there are unique shops with all kinds of goodies to purchase.

Bike lanes

Exploring the area by bike with dedicated lanes makes getting around a breeze.

Dedicated City Officials

City officials work tirelessly to ensure positive change is being made. They are keeping the best interest of us all top of mind every day as they work for the good of the community.

Summer festivals

Summertime in Hudson County brings out the best in food, drinks, and music. Checking out one of the many festivals is a warm-weather favorite.

Shows at Mile Square Theatre

This local professional theater showcases the brilliant talent right here in the community.

Food trucks

Small businesses come in all shapes and sizes, and food trucks are an extra special kind.

Festive cocktails

The holidays are a time to enjoy all of the treats. Festive cocktails can be found at local bars and restaurants.

Local breweries

Craft beer inspired by local delicacies are fun to enjoy and share with visitors.

Independent bookstores

Reading opens a world of possibilities and local shops allow consumers to support both authors and local business owners.

Workout classes

Keeping fit is even better with friends. Hudson County certainly has its share of workout choices so locals are thankful to find something that matches their fitness level and schedule.

Wellness centers

Staying healthy, both mentally and physically, is important for a life well lived, making wellness centers a necessity around town.

Recreational activities

Creating communities of all kinds is what Hudson County does best. Recreational sports allow people to come together over friendly competition.

Parents’ groups + communities

They say it takes a village and parent groups allow for just that. Parents are able to share tips, product suggestions, and provide advice.

Celebrity sightings

With the proximity to NYC and incredible spots for an unforgettable movie scene, it’s common to spot a celebrity or two. There are also over a dozen reality and competition stars living in Hudson County, so keep an eye out. 

Non-profit organizations

The work that local non-profits do is unmatched. They support some of the most vulnerable populations and ensure that all residents are supported.

Friend meet-ups

Catching up with friends is easy to do in an area like Hudson County. The question of ‘what should we do?,’ is never an issue.

Fast delivery service

When ordering food, fast delivery is on everyone’s mind. Thankfully, local spots know the feeling.

The best Mutz

Finding good mozzarella cheese is an art and Hudson County understands the assignment.

Coffee shops

There’s no better taste than that first sip of coffee. Baristas in the area are always mixing up creative concoctions or serving up the traditional cup of joe.

Kid-friendly activities

Getting the kids out of the house and into something fun is easy in Hudson County. Language learning, sports, arts, and more — parents can choose what’s best for their home.

Gluten-free + vegan food options

Dietary restrictions can be tricky, but restaurants in the area take careful preparation to ensure the best dining experience for all guests.

Animal shelters

The furry members of our community in need of love and support are cared for by the best. Donations from locals make the experience even better.

Outdoor dining options

Dining al fresco can be hard to come by in a city setting, but not in Hudson County. Waterfront spots and hidden gems alike pair well with a sunny day.

Healthcare professionals

They have been there through the best and worst of times and continue to carry us through. For that, we are forever grateful.

Education professionals

There is no way to ever repay the teachers who selflessly give their time, talents, and energy to raise the next generation.

Changing seasons

Getting to enjoy different seasons allows for new beginnings (and an excuse to shop at local boutiques for seasonal wardrobes).

Great bagels

Just like pizza, it’s New Jersey or nothing. There may be debate on which spot is the best, but collectively, they all shine.

Remote workspaces

Working from home takes on a new meaning in Hudson County. Beautiful co-working spaces and cafes make it worth leaving the home to work from home.

A county with a rich history

Hoboken, Jersey City, + the greater Hudson County have been a part of some of America’s biggest discoveries and milestones.

Beautiful murals

Art around town is a true treasure and the murals are a unique gift that keeps giving.

Walks along the Hudson

The Hudson River provides spectacular views and sets the scene for a beautiful — and sometimes romantic — walk.

Endless restaurant choices

Eating out can be considered a sport in Hudson County. With what seems like infinite choices, the only question is “What’s for dinner?”

Hair salons

Two more businesses will open in Southwestern Hoboken at 38 Jackson Street, in the Southend Lofts building. A coffee bar and a dumpling shop are the latest additions to the property, which already has a grocery store confirmed as a tenant. Read on for more about two new businesses coming to Southend Lofts in Southwestern Hoboken. 

What’s Coming

A source close to the project confirmed to The Hoboken Girl that two new businesses have made plans to open at 38 Jackson Street. The first is a coffee shop called Under Pressure Espresso Bar, which has three NYC locations. The food menu includes breakfast and lunch staples such as sandwiches and salads, plus pastries and smoothies. The beverage menu includes a full suite of coffee and espresso drinks, plus teas and matcha.

Earlier this fall, The Hoboken Girl shared the news that a grocery store would be one of the first tenants at 38 Jackson Street. It will be a Dumbo Market.

The Hoboken Girl has reached out to both businesses to learn more about the timing of their respective openings and will update this piece when we hear back.
