A popular spot to hang out in a bustling, trendy town in the Garden State has announced it will be closing its doors for good after nearly two decades.

As for why, its owners have not announced, but regardless, it's not easy running a restaurant these days.

If you need an example, just yesterday we wrote a story about one of the best barbeque restaurants in the state closing one of two of its locations.

And if you have lost count of all of the great restaurants that have announced their closure over the past several months, you aren't the only one. Lots of eateries big and small from North to South Jersey have shut their doors.

A prime example would be Voltacos in Ocean City, which closed after almost 70 years.

And now a trendy cafe in Hoboken will be added to the list.

D's Soul Full Cafe, which has been on Willow Avenue since 2006, says they're done as of Sunday, May 14th, according to The Hoboken Girl, which cited an Instagram post, which has since been deleted.

D’s Soul Full Cafe serves up pure comfort food with a twist. From unique breakfast burritos to sandwiches, salads, soups, and beyond, this is the place most will want to be when craving some feel-good food.

D's wasn't just a spot to grab a snack. Its owners ran a business where the community gathered to hear some live music or check out what local artists had created.

Five Favorite Coffee Shops to Try This Spring

If you are a fan of coffee, here are five local spots to try at the Jersey Shore

Best coffee shops & cafes near NJ beaches

When it comes to food, New Jersey is known for many things such as pizza and pork roll. Don't count us out when it comes to coffee.

With all the hustle and bustle involved in the average New Jersey resident's day, coffee is essential. It doesn't matter whether you're living in the cities of North Jersey or the vacation spots at the shore.

In fact, as the former owner of two Jersey shore coffee houses, Coffee Dot Comedy in Sea Isle City and the Daily Grind in Ocean Grove, I know firsthand how much people at the Jersey shore love their coffee.

With respect to that, I asked my social media following where the best coffee houses at the Jersey Shore were, especially since my two places no longer exist.

Below is what they came up with. (And see this other article for their coffee shop and cafe recommendations for Central Jersey.)
