The Londoner actually closed because their license was revoked for selling to minors. They lied on the signage on the door- they stated that the expiration date had passed and it was mistakenly overlooked. Not true!

The Londoner closed because their license was revoked for selling to minors. However, the door sign says their liquor license expired and they hadn't realized it. What a joke!

That's a pretty serious charge without supporting evidence.

The TABC website does not state a selling-to-minors violation. However, it does state that the license was cancelled on 12/13/2013


Complaint # Status Violation Date Code Violation Description Docket # Disposition Fine Amt Paid Amt Paid Date Begin Date End Date

613551 Closed 10/10/2012 864 RM does not Qualify for FB 613551 Cancellation 12/13/2013


If there was in fact a selling-to-minors complaint, it would have stated it, AFAIK. Be prepared for a libel/defamation lawsuit.

FB and RM descriptions:


FOOD AND BEVERAGE CERTIFICATE (FB)
A Food and Beverage Certificate may be issued to the holder of a Beer Retailer's On-Premise Permit or Wine and Beer Retailer's Permit if food service is the primary business being operated on the licensed premise or to the holder of a Mixed Beverage Permit or Private Club Permit if food service is available on the premises and the gross receipts of alcoholic beverages do not exceed 50% of total gross receipts.

The holder must meet requirements of the Code and Rule 33.5 concerning minimum number of entrees served, hours of service, etc.

Certificate allows holder to be exempt from posting a conduct surety bond.


MIXED BEVERAGE RESTAURANT PERMIT WITH FB (RM)

Odd that someone would sign up to make that one post, of which, there is zero evidence to support.

And to do it twice. :) And oddly enough, there is not a link to the story...

Anyone know what is going in on the corner of Watters and Stacey, looks like a restaurant of some sort?

Not sure, but I don't think it looks like a restaurant. There appears to be a large garage type entrance to one side. No signs around say what it is either.

I haven't driven by to look yet, but someone said there was a lot of ground breaking going on in the vacant lot between American National Bank and Herbs Paint & Body. Anyone know what is happening?

Different one, the site across from AHS hasn't been approved by council that I can find, only approved by P&Z.

We have eaten at The Woodlands location many times and it is excellent. We are excited that it is coming and I do agree it will do well here.

Opening:
Hyatt Place is in P&Z stages so will most likely happen (Southbound 75 next to Homewood Suites)




Another hotel being built in Allen

I wouldn't have thought there would be demand for another hotel. Anyone know how the others are doing? Are they always full?
