What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's 'Passport on a Plate' episode featured Passage Irish Bar and Kitchen, an Irish pub in Astoria, Queens, built around Irish comfort food, cocktails, and a dedicated whiskey bar called The Blacksmith, according to Time Out New York's write-up of the venue. The business operated at 40-11 30th Avenue in Astoria, a residential stretch of northwest Queens a short walk from the Broadway N/W subway stop, before closing. Yelp lists the Passage Irish Bar and Kitchen page as permanently closed, with photos and reviews last updated in December 2025, and Google Places' record for the same address also showed a permanently-closed business status in the same 2026-09-08 data pull. No source located during this research specified an exact closing date or a reason for the closure.
