Hotel or Bar Operators

Where it is proposed to sell liquor in a hotel, bar or tavern atmosphere the most appropriate liquor license is a hotel licence or a general bar hotel licence. A general bar licence is a limited type of hotel licence suited to venues that wish to operate a bar but do not want to operate gaming machines or offer takeaway liquor sales.  A general bar licence will permit a venue to operate dining facilities, accommodation and public entertainment.
