- DeForest - 05-18-2000 I am looking for the states in which it is legal to have a wine retail store and a restaurant under the same roof and sharing the same entrance. I know that it is NOT legal in NY...anywhere else? Anyone experienced in such a venture? -Seth - Kcwhippet - 05-18-2000 I've seen it in Oregon. - anna - 05-18-2000 I've seen this in Illinois. - Thomas - 05-20-2000 I've been to one in Seattle, Wa. and one in San Francisco, Ca. - Innkeeper - 05-20-2000 Have seen retail beer in restaurants in Nebrassssssssssska. Maybe they would allow wine instead of or in addition to. - mrdutton - 05-20-2000 I seem to recall places in Pennsylvania were off-premises sales were allowed. You could go to the local tavern, drink a few and then take a six-pack home with you. I think Maryland was the same way. But that is for beer and I don't know if the same applies for wine. - winecollector - 05-20-2000 I've never seen it with wine, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I don't get out enough to know for sure. I do know that in the higher class restraunts, if you don't finish the bottle at the table, your not allowed to take what remains with you. - Jason - 05-20-2000 This is allowed in Florida. Some bars even have the ability to sell any and all to go. - winoweenie - 05-22-2000 Anna`s cafe here in phoenix has a retail wine shop and a restaurant with a common entrance. This was one of Curmy`s favorite joints because of the tremendously low pricing on the wines at the restaurant plus the owner is a hell of a chef. Winoweenie - mrdutton - 05-22-2000 Gadzooks what a dummy I am........ Right here in Virginia you can find wine merchants and eateries in a combined business. Two examples: P J Baggins - serves light lunches, quiche, salads, sandwiches, etc. You can purchase wine by the glass or you can buy a bottle on display, drink from it and have it re-corked to take with you. Taste Unlimited - Gourmet foods, deli. Sells wine, but does not have by-the-glass service. I believe they have an 'off-premises' permitt only.
