Where Business Meets Exceptional Hospitality
87 Sussex is located in Paulus Hook, one of the few parts of Jersey City that still feels calm while being right next to Manhattan. Companies use the space for executive dinners, internal meetings, and larger team events because it doesn’t feel like a typical corporate venue.
It’s a restaurant first—with elegant food, natural light, and a staff that knows how to run a room without over-managing it. Getting here is easy from NYC, which matters when you’re bringing people together from different offices.
The layout works for groups as small as 25 and as large as 250, and it doesn’t force events into a single format. Some groups want a seated dinner and real conversation. Others want movement, drinks, and energy. The space can handle both, and planning is focused on what the group actually needs, not a preset package.
