![]() ![]() Multiple inquiries made to Tan about the bar’s status have thus far gone unanswered, but speculation online continues to run rampant. ![]() Nice Things JC posted on Instagram last month that they’ve confirmed the Golden Cicada is indeed closed for good, but Jersey Digs hasn’t been able to independently verify that. The lack of activity has left many wondering if the bar, romanticized by The New York Times and many others for its authenticity, is permanently shuttered. Golden Cicada, run by owner Cheng Tan since the 1980s and known for serving shots of their famous baijiu to both long-time residents as well as Jersey City newcomers, has gone dark without much of an explanation. The long run for one of Paulus Hook’s beloved dive bars looks like it has come to an end, as the lights at 195 Grand Street have been off this entire month and they don’t appear to be coming back on again anytime soon. ![]() The Golden Cicada, 195 Grand Street, Jersey City. ![]()
