Antique Bar + Bakery, the hard-to-book Italian eatery and bar on Willow Avenue, has storied Hoboken roots that date back to over 100 years ago. That story, which starts with a 30-ton coal oven, added a new chapter to its pages last October, in the form of a micro-diner down the block. The owners of Antique Bar + Bakery and Antique Loft expanded their culinary talents to open a separate restaurant called ‘Antique at 112’ in the former One12 space. The new BYOB spot serves up “cherished comfort foods” with modern twists and allergy-friendly modifications. Now, these delicacies are available all day, as Antique at 112 is expanding its hours to offer dinner service. Read on to learn more about Antique at 112 in Hoboken and its new dinner hours.
The New Hours
Since opening in October, Antique at 112 operated on a breakfast and lunch schedule, open every day from 7AM to 3PM. By popular demand, according to an Instagram post, the spot has now extended its hours to stay open until 8PM every day, filling a breakfast-for-dinner void here in Hoboken. The new hours are 9AM – 8PM every day of the week, but the menu remains the same — and if you’re hungry, keep reading to learn more about what this Hoboken spot is serving up.
About Antique at 112
Antique at 112 took over the 112 Willow Avenue storefront, the former home to artisan kitchen One12 Hoboken. Joe Castello, the owner of Antique Bar + Bakery and its sister event venue Antique Loft, described the Hoboken newcomer as a “sort of micro-diner,” serving breakfast and lunch items in a space fusing the coziness of a “grandmother’s kitchen” with edgy narratives.

The menu features “cherished” comfort foods like burgers, “sangwiches,” and Hoboken-style hot dogs with an elevated twist. For our food allergy friends, the former FOMO of Antique dinners is no longer — Antique at 112 has dairy-free and gluten-free modifications for every single item on the menu. In a conversation with HG, Joe lamented how “people who have gut health issues and can never have the same fun that everyone else does.” Now, he said, they can.
Joe was largely inspired by his daughter’s food restrictions to create an inclusive menu for all diners. The operating philosophy for Antique at 112 is simple: “Give the people what they want.” This mantra informs the food selection even beyond its flexibility, as Joe says the upcoming menu consists of “dishes infused with [Antique’s] memories — but imagine those memories as louder, bolder, and irresistibly more.”
Antique at 112 is a funkier offshoot of its sister restaurant, bringing an “audacious offspring vibe” that blends traditional with the modern. The 112 Willow Avenue outpost has indoor/outdoor seating and is prepping to serve brunch on the weekends. Unlike Antique Bar + Bakery, the new restaurant is BYOB.
