Study: Liquor ban turns off would-be Wilkinsburg restaurateurs

Posted on July 14, 2015 by marlee

February 10, 2015: The liquor license ban in Wilkinsburg is discouraging potential restaurateurs from opening up shop in the borough, according to the Urban Partners Market Study of Wilkinsburg. From the study: “Full-service sit-down restaurants are also in short supply in the Wilkinsburg business district. A major contributing factor is the prohibition of alcohol in restaurants in the borough, which is typically a significant revenue generator for restaurants. As a result, prospective restaurateurs interested in opening new venues are avoiding Wilkinsburg, which is keeping the demand for finer dining high and the supply relatively low.” Read more at Pop City.
