St. Patrick’s Day, a celebration of Irish culture, an excuse to drink green beer, and the day where we eat as much corned beef and cabbage as we possibly can, falls on March 17th. This holiday, which was first called the Feast Day of St. Patrick, was established in 1631 by the Catholic Church to honor St. Patrick, the primary patron saint of Ireland. Whether you’re Irish by blood or just for the day, there are plenty of local events to celebrate this historic holiday. Read on for a guide to St. Patrick’s Day events in Hoboken + Jersey City for 2025.

The building has over 100,000 square feet of office/retail space, and will soon be home to a few new Jersey City businesses — from restaurants to fitness spots. While there is still room for even more new businesses in the Arts + Powerhouse Building, we've rounded up which ones have been confirmed so far. Read on for more about the new businesses coming to Jersey City's Arts + Powerhouse Building, located at 124-134 Bay Street.

Daily Provisions, which is run by Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group (the group that first launched Shake Shack), will be taking over about 3,134 square feet of space in the building, per Jersey Digs. The spot has a primary focus on to-go orders and serves up breakfast, lunch, and dinner items — including sandwiches, bakery items like crullers + cookies, soups, and salads, among other dishes. The drink menu includes coffee, tea, and lemonade, among other choices. The Jersey City location will not have a liquor license. Daily Provisions currently has eight locations in New York City — this will be the eatery's first New Jersey locale.

Tacombi Jersey City
View this post on Instagram
We first shared the news back in 2021 that NYC-based taco spot 'Tacombi' would be coming to Jersey City's Arts + Powerhouse building. The Mexican restaurant will also be on the ground floor, and will take up about 2,700 square feet of space. Tacombi’s story began by selling Mexican street food in a vintage VW camper bus on the beach in Yucatan, Mexico back in 2005 and has since grown to be the popular Mexican restaurant it is today. The restaurant is known for its beautiful interior design — think bright colors, murals, and major beach vibes — and serves up tacos, quesadillas, burritos, and savory appetizers. Some menu highlights include corn esquites (sweet corn sliced from the cob with cotija cheese, smoky homemade Morita mayo, spicy chili), baja crispy fish tacos, and a la bisteca burrito (sirloin steak with rice, beans, cabbage, spicy escabeche, + salsa) Tacombi currently has locations in New York, Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, Florida, and Illinois — this will be its first New Jersey storefront.
Other businesses set to open at Jersey City's Arts + Powerhouse Building include One Medical, a primary care office, and Spear Physical Therapy, per an Instagram post from the building. This post will be updated as more tenants are announced.
