What to Know About Liquor Licensing in New York
Planning to launch a bar, nightclub, or any alcohol-serving establishment in NYC can be a daunting process for many different reasons—not the least of which is because of the complex liquor licensing regulations. The New York State Liquor Authority (NYSLA) is the primary agency responsible for licensing. There are different types of licenses for different situations:
OP (Full): New York’s OP license authorizes venues to serve a complete range of spirits, wine, and beer to patrons on-site. It is a full license.
HL (Hotel): This type of liquor license allows hotels and motels in New York City to offer alcoholic beverages throughout their premises
CL (Club): Tailored for private clubs, the CL license facilitates the serving of alcoholic drinks to their private members.
RW (Restaurant): The RW license is for restaurants that only wish to serve beer and wine.
EB (Eating Place): An EB license is for smaller dining establishments. It only allows beer to be served. It may be the best option for some types of businesses in NYC.
L (Liquor Store): The L license allows for the sale of beer, liquor, and wine for consumption off the premises
