Liquor License
Whether you own a bar, club, store or restaurant, Pennsylvania law is very clear: if you want to serve liquor, you need to have a license.
Food establishments who want to be able to sell alcohol to their patrons must have a liquor license issued by the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board. The process for obtaining the license from another licensee can be daunting. We are able to determine what licenses are available, negotiate the transfer with the current owner and then take all the steps necessary with the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board to effectuate the transfer.
It’s not an easy thing. The state has a quota for how many licenses it issues for each county, meaning there are only a finite number available. Often, establishments need to wait to transfer a license from another business.
