Openings
Millburn Deli, Jersey City
The popular Millburn Deli is expanding into Hudson County. A new location, the deli’s fifth, will open in 2025 in Jersey City’s Exchange Place neighborhood. The deli first opened in 1946 and is considered one of the best in the state. The company said a Bridgewater location may be coming soon, too.
Gregorys Coffee, Old Bridge
The NYC-based specialty coffee shop is expanding its footprint with an impending opening in Old Bridge. The new location will have a drive-thru window. Conceptualized by New Jersey native Gregory Zamfotis, Gregorys Coffee brews coffee every 30 minutes, bakes fresh pastries in-house daily, and pours custom latte art for customers. As a bonus, the shop doesn’t charge for milk alternatives—meaning guests can enjoy oat-milk lattes or almond-milk matchas at no additional cost.

This new breakfast and lunch spot puts a fun spin on breakfast and lunch favorites, such as mini brioche French toast, frittata bites, and mini lemon-ricotta poppers. Their original location remais in Wyckoff.
Closings
Losurdo’s Italian Deli & Bread Bakery, a beloved family-owned business in Hoboken since 1975, has announced its closure. “It’s with a heavy heart that we share our family business, Losurdo Brothers…will be closing its doors on Sunday, December 8, 2024,” the owners wrote on Instagram. “It has been an incredible 50 years serving the people of Hoboken and beyond.” The Losurdo brothers came to New Jersey from Italy; they operated at the same Hoboken location since their founding.
