Even with tough economic times - new businesses are opening left and right in Hoboken!
Black Tea Optional set to open in Hoboken
A new coffee/tea/sweets shop with a clever name, “Black Tea Optional” is coming to the former Park Ave Grill / Mr. Wraps location across the street from the former Park Ave. Grill / Mr. Wraps location at 743 Park Avenue (corner of 8th.)

Their website shows only 3 kinds of chocolate mixtures as the foods right now. I emailed them suggesting pastry at least in the morning as their is nothing to eat in the morning on 8th Street west of Washington all the way to the light rail.”

Ah, so Mr. Wraps did used to have a different location. I thought I was just crazy.

H411 — It’s not at the old Mr. Wraps place. It will be across the street on the corner where the day care used to be. I took a picture last night and sent it to you.

Mr. Wraps bounced between their current location and the 8th and Park location for about 2 years. Often, they had both stores opens serving the same menu two blocks away from each other. I never understood that…
I can’t wait for this place to open. This area of town needs something new…

I’m definitely excited for this place to open. I saw the sign up for a week or so now. Elaine is definitely right on about nothing to eat or coffee on the way to the light rail. This will be a great addition to the neighborhood!

Cute name.

Unfortunately for this new place I heard the owner is a real nasty, arrogant, money grubbing SOB, who has little or no friends and is disliked by the few that remain by her. I feel bad for the property owners who plan to rent the space, they are in for one fine mess!

Isn’t a new coffee shop opening up on 7th and Clinton (as reported by H411)a couple blocks away, as well?

I saw a sign on another building (forget where though — maybe around the corner) that said BLACK TEA OPTIONAL coming soon — Winter 2008.

Whoops screwed up the location - sorry about that… Will fix this weekend. I have to tend to my TMJ, CTS and RSI for a day (not kidding, either).
13. hoboken411 | November 21st, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Fixed it now.

No pressure, 411!
