The Hoboken Girl Team 
For all the freelancers and coffee shop campers out there, finding a place to work after 5PM on any given day can be a real production. Even more so, finding a caffeinated beverage + a quaint coffee shop to sip it in after dinner time is a scavenger hunt in and of itself. Luckily, many Hoboken and Jersey City establishments have heard your cries for caffeine and made themselves readily available for late-night coffee consumers, some having sit-down options, and some just giving you an option to grab and go. Read on to discover the list of coffee shops that are open until at least 6PM in Hoboken + Jersey City.
Hoboken
Alessio’s Cafe | 539 Park Avenue, Hoboken + 99 Franklin Street, Jersey City
Hoboken location open until 9PM Thursdays to Mondays and 4PM on Tuesdays; Jersey City location open until 5PM on weekdays and 5PM on weekends

While the Jersey City location closes at regular dinner hours, the Hoboken location is open late. At this cozy cafe, locals can find lattes, cappuccinos, and all other sorts of brews. This spot also serves wraps, sandwiches, pastries, and more.
Alfalfa | 92 Bloomfield Street, 1110 Washington Street, Hoboken + 160 1st Street, Jersey City
Hoboken location open until 8PM on weekdays; Jersey City location open until 8:30PM Monday-Thursday, 8PM on Friday
Predominantly a salad shop born originally in Hoboken (with a location now in Jersey City), Alfalfa is one of our favorites. It’s a cafe-style spot that isn’t your typical coffee shop WFH spot — that said, it does serve a slew of coffees and other caffeinated drinks. Try the matcha latte, and thank us later.
Bagels on the Hudson | 802 Washington Street
Open 24 hours
Hoboken’s only 24-hour bagel shop, Bagels on the Hudson has an array of bagels and toppings to serve any carb craving, day or night. Since we’re talking coffee, there’s also a DIY coffee station with the basics: cream, sugar, and some syrups. It’s no frills, but then again, most of the best things are.

Cafe Vista | 527 Monroe Street
Open until 5:30 on weekdays, 6PM on weekends
This Insta-ready Hoboken coffee spot boasts a delectable menu with a side of vintage vibes. From the teacups to the furniture, you’ll feel as if you’re sipping your coffee in a different era when you sit down here and you’ll enjoy every sip.
Empire Tea + Coffee Company | 338 Bloomfield Street
Open until 8PM on weekdays, 7PM on weekends
A Hoboken favorite, Empire Tea + Coffee provides that caffeine fix to keep freelancers on point from morning to night. This long-standing gem has all of the vibes one needs to get the job done. There isn’t much seating, however, so this proves to be an issue — but the scent of coffee is elite here.
Forum Coffee | 123 Washington Street + 1400 Washington Street
Forum Coffee is a New Jersey-born coffee spot with locations in Livingston, East Hanover, and Hoboken. At both Forum’s Mile Square locations, locals can enjoy all kinds of coffee drinks until 8:30PM.
Jefferson’s Coffee | 534 Washington Street + 1001 Madison Street
Varying hours per location — 7PM + 6PM
The Washington Street location has varying hours, but the Washington Street location never closes before 7PM (except on Mondays). The Madison Street location is open until 6PM on Thursdays and Saturdays. Jefferson’s Coffee is also a great WFH spot. The coffee varieties are rich and fresh baked goods are made by hand.
Joboken Café | 23 Hudson Place
Open until 6:30PM Tuesday-Friday, 6PM Monday + Saturday
Joboken Café is located at 23 Hudson Place, right next to the PATH station. The storefront itself is small, but has outside seating and a walk-up window. Along with delish coffee, Joboken also sells baked goods, Natalie’s juices, yogurt, biscotti, and other snacks to compliment your morning brew.
Julietta | 423 Washington Street
Open until 9:30PM M-Th, Fri 11PM, Sat 11PM, Sun 10PM
If gelato is more your speed (with a side of coffee), then Julietta’s is a fun spot to enjoy a night-coffee-cap. Newer to the cafe scene, it houses coffee and pastries but is even more known for its gelato as a draw. The space is adorably decorated to boot.
Mojo Coffee Company | 801 Bloomfield Street + 230 Willow Avenue
Open until 6PM
With two locations in the Mile Square, Mojo has become a certified coffee fixture in town. The Bloomfield location is open until 6PM (the Willow Avenue until 5:30PM), and has a WFH setup for any of our remote friends out there. Plenty of tables, outlets, and little treats for days.
Paris Baguette | 1000 Maxwell Lane
Open until 10PM daily
Paris Baguette is open later than most coffee shops in Hoboken, closing its doors by 10PM each night. One drawback is that the baristas usually ask patrons to clear the dining area by 9:30PM, but before that — there’s good WiFi and lots of tables and chairs.
Forum Coffee | 123 Washington Street, + 1400 Washington Uptown
Open until 8:30PM
Having recently taken over Pour Amour’s location on Washington downtown, Forum is a small space but is open till 8:30PM on weekdays. Its uptown location is in the works, and will be housed inside of the former Juice Press.
Toast x Bowl | 328 Washington Street
Open until 9PM
Toast x Bowl serves a unique array of sandwiches and bowls — each turning a classic meal on its head with an Asian-style twist. The drink menu is just as expansive as the eats, with an array of hot and iced coffee options to indulge in.
Jersey City
Butler Café | 350 Warren Street
Open until 8PM
“Strong Coffee and Tasty Treats” is Butler Cafe’s motto, and it is spot-on. Butler Cafe keeps its doors open until 8PM. Grab a cup of coffee, pull up a chair, and hit the books.
Creme Brewtique | 558 West Side Avenue
Open until 8PM Monday-Thursday, 9PM Friday-Sunday
This woman-owned cafe opened in May 2023, and the interior is a visual treat itself, with its candy-colored hues across the walls, whimsical Alice in Wonderland-themed table tops, and a gorgeous floral backdrop with pink velvet chairs. On the menu, caffeine fiends can find a decadent selection of coffees (think white chocolate mocha with edible glitter) and bubble teas.
City Cafe + Grill | 2800 John F. Kennedy Boulevard
Open until 12AM
This spot located in Journal Square has a great selection of bagels, pastries, and coffee, but it recently rebranded to feature lunch + dinner items on its menu, too. The staff is friendly and it’s a nice low-key spot to get some work done.
Crema | 1 Duncan Avenue
Open until 6PM

Great ambiance, great eats, great prices: that’s what locals get at Crema. It specializes in ice cream but the coffee is top-notch too.
Gregory’s Coffee | 525 Washington Boulevard + 10 Exchange Place, Jersey City + 111 River Street, Hoboken
Jersey City locations open until 7PM; Hoboken location open until 6:30PM Monday-Friday, 7PM on Saturday + Sunday

Settle into this chain coffeehouse for a drink that is anything but pedestrian. Whether you prefer an iced coffee or a vanilla latte, Gregory’s Coffee will keep you up for the long haul.

This gem offers delicious breakfast and lunch items inspired by Asian and American classics. The coffee is Vietnamese. It’s a great cafe in the Van Vorst Park neighborhood.

Dunkin Donuts | Multiple Locations
Open 24 hours + until 9PM
Although a chain, Dunkin Donuts is another 24-hour option that does not disappoint. Pop in for a classic coffee + doughnut combo – we’re fans of a good ol’ fashioned glazed doughnut. Grab a cold brew to-go or take a seat for a late-night nibble or breakfast.
7-Eleven | Multiple Locations
Open 24 hours
While not the most glamorous of options, and definitely not a sit-down option, 7-Eleven coffee gets the job done at all hours of the day. Whether it’s 2PM and you’re out for a midday pick-me-up, or it’s 2AM and you’re stumbling in for that extra shot of Joe to keep you going, you’ll never be without your caffeine fix.
