A restaurant in Washington, D.C., has had its liquor and business licenses reinstated, marking the end of a grueling legal battle that left the establishment closed for nearly two months.

The Alcoholic Beverage Control Board on Wednesday ruled that the Big Board, a specialty burger shop and pub, could have its liquor license restored, completing the final step for the restaurant to reopen. The district's Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs previously reinstated the pub’s operating license earlier this month.

The Big Board’s liquor license was then suspended on Jan. 28. Just over a week later, the district's Health Department issued a closure notice on Feb. 1, citing multiple code violations not related to COVID-19 mandates. The Buckeye Institute wrote a letter to the DCRA on Feb. 22, demanding it to allow the restaurant to reopen without having to “proceed with legal action seeking financial damages, attorney’s fees, as well as injunctive and other compensatory relief.” That request was granted March 1, according to the institute.
