Questions buyers ask

How do I look up pending TABC liquor license applications in Houston?

TABC publishes applications as public records, through its public inquiry system and the Texas Open Data Portal. PourWire polls them daily, matches each application to an address and a business, and lists them here newest first. Names of applications filed in the last 30 days, and every owner contact, are on the paid feed.

How long after a liquor license application does a venue open?

Median 45 days between the first filing and the estimated opening for venues on this page.

Who uses a list of new liquor license applications?

POS and payments reps, liquor liability insurance agents, beverage distributors and equipment suppliers. They reach the owner while the venue is still choosing its vendors, before it opens.

How long a TABC liquor license takes, how to look up pending applications, and what MB, BG and FB mean

ABOUT THIS DATA

How PourWire tracks TABC liquor license applications

Sources
Liquor license applications and building permits from state and city public records, currently TX TABC. Every signal on this page names the government system it came from.
Cadence
Polled daily. A filing appears here the day the source indexes it.
Lead time
Median 45 days between first filing and estimated opening: the window in which an operator is still choosing POS, payments, insurance and suppliers.
Stage
142 new.
License types
MB (80) · BG (71) · FB (56).
Method
Signals sharing an address collapse into one venue, so a place filing both a liquor application and a build-out permit counts once and scores higher for it.
