It's never been actually mentioned, but it's presumed he sold the bar or hired someone to run to spend time with his family, as bar hours aren't exactly perfect to also be around your kids. I am also doubtful that the bar is called Joe's. It's officially the Emerald City Bar and "Joe's" was just a nickname given to it by the doctors, and I think tradition is keeping that nickname alive, whether Joe is still actually working there or not.
