§ 8.20.020.105. Full bar.

"Full bar" means a bar where alcoholic liquors are dispensed by the drink through retail sales to customers at such bar. A full bar liquor license is a retail license and may be issued to a tournament billiard club, an excursion boat, an interactive entertainment center, a tourist club, a restaurant operating in conjunction with a regional commercial retail mall, a theatrical and production event facility, or an interactive sports facility, a golf course, a wine cellar business or a restaurant operating in conjunction with a golf course and a theater as defined in Section 6.95.010 of this code other than adult motion picture theaters, adult mini motion picture theaters, adult entertainment cabarets, adult picture arcade theaters, picture arcade theaters, picture arcade facilities and drive-in motion picture establishments.

If a restaurant is operated in conjunction with a full bar and minors are admitted to the restaurant area, alcoholic liquors may be served to all patrons aged twenty-one and older throughout the premises, except that any person twenty-one and older accompanying a minor in the restaurant portion of the business may only be served alcohol in conjunction with meals at dining tables or booths. The bar-lounge area shall be closed to minors and must be separated from the rest of the establishment by a barrier sufficient to prevent access to the bar-lounge area by minors.

If a theater operates with a full bar, alcoholic beverages may be served either from separate bar or from the general concession area. Sales and service of alcoholic beverages at theaters shall be made in accordance with the following measures to ensure alcoholic beverages are not sold, served or consumed by minors; a theater may not sell or serve alcoholic beverages except to patrons presenting acceptable identification each time an alcoholic beverage is purchased; and, a patron may not possess more than two containers of alcoholic beverages at one time and may only purchase alcoholic beverages for themselves and those individuals physically present and providing identification at time of purchase; and, containers used to serve alcoholic beverages will be translucent or clearly distinguishable from those used to serve non-alcoholic beverages.

Any sale or service of alcoholic beverages under procedures and rules differing from the rules above must be included in a written security plan that is submitted as part of the application by the board and, once accepted, compliance therewith shall become a condition to licensing. Any subsequent modification to a security plan and condition to licensure must be submitted to the director for inclusion as part of the licensee's record and amendment to the condition of licensure. No modification to the security plan may be imposed on the license without approval by the board.
