New restaurant 61-63 14th Street
New restaurant 61-63 14th Street {formerly Liberty Bar}
Plans have been approved for a new “family friendly” bar/restaurant to take the place of the doomed & demolished Liberty Bar at 61-63 14th Street uptown.
Knowing Hoboken – and the time it takes to move a pencil from one desk to another – you’re probably looking at 2018 or 2019 before anything is finished in this spot.
It’s apparently owned by some guy with money, who has created a few other restaurants in NYC – where you can get away with selling anything.
However, in Hoboken – the customers are most likely more discriminate when it comes to their food choices (hence why Liberty pooped out).
For this new “eatery” to survive, they must:
- Offer good food at a good value (i.e., not expensive, no food poisoning)
- No lame bar crowd, loud mouths, sports idiots
- Hire competent staff (i.e., go easy on the millennials)
The new restaurant will have a capacity of 150 people – with outdoor seating in the rear. A couple condos above, and boom-bada-bing – you have a typical Hoboken mixed use property.
Let’s see if they stand out in a positive way – or will be “doomed” before they get going.
