Cuomo’s State Liquor Authority says, ‘No’ to Bushwick’s top club with an order to suspend liquor sales until further notice. The venue is a global club destination known for its wild parties and incorporating political and environmental activism in many of their events, was shuttered August 27 for violating of their liquor license and the new pandemic rules of the state.
It’s owners announced, “Unfortunately, our liquor license was suspended yesterday by the State Liquor Authority (SLA) ? Therefore, we will be temporarily closed while we focus on doing everything in our power to work with the SLA in good faith to restore our license and reopen.”
In a statement posted on instagram they explained, “The latest safety guidelines mandated by the Governor require that food be served alongside alcohol at all bars, and we thought we were complying with these rules by offering food-to-order from our sister restaurant. Unfortunately we learned that this does not comply with the technical requirement of our license.”⠀
