Hoboken Steakhouse Arthur's Announces It Will Close

Arthur's Tavern in Hoboken said it will close and is selling off fixtures and furnishings.

HOBOKEN, NJ — On the heels of the Dec. 31 closure of Hoboken's only diner, another restaurant staple in the mile-square city announced on Friday that it will soon close as well. And just like with the Malibu Diner, Arthur's Tavern, a Washington Street steakhouse, may return someday after extensive renovations, but the owners left the timeline unclear.

The restaurant said it will sell off its Tiffany lamps, neon signs, and all furnishings.

Commenters on the restaurant's Instagram asked if they were closing for good, or just for renovations, but got no answers.

"Please come visit us one more time and enjoy an Arthur's steak, the famous griddled potatoes, garlic bread, French onion soup, and our famous burgers," the owners wrote on social media.

Jersey Digs reported in 2020 that the renovations would be extensive, and that the restaurant will likely return. Hoboken Girl said Friday that renovations may take a year to 18 months.
