New Restaurant, Brewpub to Open at Old Post Office Building in Princeton

Princeton, NJ -- The old post office building in Palmer Square will become a restaurant and brewpub, Planet Princeton reports.

LCOR Ventures, based in Oakland, California, plans to transform the former post office into a restaurant and brewpub while maintaining the building’s historic feel, according to the report.

Plans call for the replacement of the loading docks across from Brooks Brothers with a glass entrance. It was unclear how many total people would be accommodated, or how LCOR would obtain a liquor license for the building, since there are none currently available in Princeton, according to the report.

The proposed restaurant and brewpub in Princeton would be open 11:30 a.m.-1 a.m., Monday-Thursday; 11:30 a.m.-2 a.m. Friday and Saturday; and noon-midnight on Sunday, according to the Princeton Packet.

The old post office was built in 1932. It is listed on the state and national registries of historic places. The sale has not yet been finalized, and no price has been revealed, according to the report.

The post office recently moved to the site of the former West Coast Video on Nassau Street, adjacent to the 7-11.
