A restaurant in Washington, D.C., had its liquor license suspended, making it the first establishment to face punishment for violating the district’s mask and COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

Investigators with the Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration served the suspension notice to the Big Board, a specialty burger shop and pub, at 4 p.m. Friday and retrieved the restaurant's license, ABRA spokesman Jared Powell told the Washington Examiner.

“The establishment cannot sell, serve, or allow the consumption of alcoholic beverages, nor can they purchase or take delivery of alcoholic beverages from wholesalers or manufacturers while the liquor license is suspended,” Powell said in an email.

ABRA voted Wednesday to refer the Big Board to the district's attorney general to draft a suspension notice, according to Powell.

The Office of the Attorney General confirmed earlier Friday that it was in the process of drafting a suspension notice, which was posted on the front doors of the restaurant that evening. The suspension is in effect “until further notice,” according to Marrisa Geller, a press secretary for the OAG.

The restaurant must have known this would happen. They were asking for it.
