We are sad to report that the Hudson Diner in the West Village closed.

The past year was particularly hard for diners as many closed including our favorite Cup & Saucer on the Lower East Side. Many owners that we have interviewed over the years have told us that #Diners in particular often operate on very low profit margins because their menus are so extensive (so they have to purchase lots of staples and ingredients which go into making all that they offer. So when landlords raise their rent, they often can’t absorb the increase.
