Evidently stained bistro has lost their liquor license. The restaurant is open but the bar is closed.
Must have been caught serving minors or not paying taxes.

Interesting, with a few possibilities:

Liquor permit might have belonged to the former owner/management team.
If the separation was not a good situation, then a sale/transfer might not occur.

non-renewal, or denial due to situations(failure to pay state taxes, or violations of any sort)

Liquor sales there never seemed large, and the bar area never seemed busy--

maybe with the possible opening of the adjacent Canal Pub(intertwined ownership?), there was not enough liquor business to justify two adjacent properties having permits--or the state would not allow these two adjacent properties with possible intertwined ownership to have two separate permits?

just guesses

M29's assumptions may or may not be correct

Not a good development.  It's pretty hard to maintain a restaurant if you can't serve alcohol.  Thumbs Down

Looks like this throws a monkey wrench in the revitalization of Downtown. This was supposed to be an anchor.

Shoo-dang-just tell them snooty folks to mosey on up to Buck's after they eat for their drinkin' needs. From the number of people that come staggering out of there they MUST have enough for everyone!

I though the stained was full to capacity daily, don't tell me that a fancy smancy place like that wouldn't survive in our bustling downtown? Whats next I ask.
