HOBOKEN — Two restaurants have closed their respective indoor dining areas but for unrelated reasons. NBC 4 New York reported that the Panera and Starbucks located next to each other on Washington Street in Hoboken have closed their dining areas in the past two weeks to all customers. A Panera manager said a fight two weeks ago between customers believed to be homeless prompted the removal of tables or the safety of employees and staff. A manager told Patch that chairs were thrown during the altercation.
