Mayor announces Hadley Center developments including new coffee shop and sushi ribbon cutting

The South Plainfield Council Meeting on May 5, 2025, highlighted several exciting developments that promise to enhance community life. Among the most notable announcements was the progress on new businesses at Hadley Center, including the upcoming opening of a coffee shop and a sushi restaurant.

The council shared that Sips and Soles has received its change of Certificate of Occupancy, allowing them to begin their build-out at Hamilton Commons. This addition is expected to provide residents with a new local spot for coffee and socializing. Additionally, the highly anticipated Shinjuku Station, a revolving sushi restaurant, will celebrate its grand opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony this Saturday at 10 AM. These new establishments are set to enrich the dining options available to residents and contribute to the vibrancy of the Hadley area.

In another community-focused initiative, the council reported on the success of a recent rabies clinic held on Saturday, where 42 pets were vaccinated and 14 licenses were issued. The event was well-attended, benefiting from favorable weather, and reflects the borough's commitment to public health and responsible pet ownership.

These developments not only signal growth in local business but also demonstrate the council's ongoing efforts to engage with and support the community's needs. As South Plainfield continues to evolve, residents can look forward to more opportunities for connection and enjoyment in their borough.
