When should all liquor be removed from tables in order to meet the requirements of a food-primary establishment?

It's impossible to give a definitive answer to when all liquor should be removed from tables in a food-primary establishment without knowing the specific regulations of the jurisdiction where the establishment is located. Regulations regarding alcohol service vary significantly from state to state and even city to city.

Here's what you should do instead:

1. Consult with Your Local Licensing Authority: The best source of information about liquor service regulations in your area is your local alcohol licensing authority (e.g., state or county alcohol beverage control board). They can provide the specific rules regarding when liquor must be removed from tables.

2. Review Your Establishment's License: Your liquor license should also outline the conditions and regulations for serving alcohol.

3. Consider Best Practices: Even if not explicitly required, it's generally a good idea to:

* Remove empty liquor bottles and glasses promptly.

* Offer non-alcoholic beverages as an alternative.

* Encourage responsible consumption.

* Be aware of closing times and adhere to them.

Remember: The primary goal is to ensure responsible alcohol service and comply with all applicable regulations.
