The CBC has posted an interesting article on their website today regarding 'lounge licences' on Quinpool Road in Halifax. A regional council has agreed to allow for licensees to apply for a new lounge licence that would permit a licensed establishment to serve alcohol to patrons without forcing them to order food.
Under old rules, if an individual wanted to order a drink from a restaurant along Quinpool they'd have to order some food to accompany said drink.
The new lounge licenses need to be approved by a community council after a public hearing, and if a licensee is successful, the lounge must take up less than half of the establishment in space.
