It’s unclear whether the closure is permanent, Eater reported. According the state’s records, Cafe Loup has four warrants for unpaid taxes dating back to September 2017 — which total $241,656.

The bistro opened in 1977 on West 13th Street near University Place and later moved down the street to the retail space at the Greenwich Village Towers co-op at 105 West 13th Street. Cafe Loup’s regular patrons included Paul Simon, Susan Sontag and Paul Auster. [Eater] — Meenal Vamburkar
