Aurora could soon allow alcohol service at some restaurants as early as 7 a.m. on Sundays.
A line of bloody mary cocktails. Aurora is looking at allowing liquor service as early at 7 a.m. on Sundays for restaurants in the city that serve only breakfast, brunch and lunch.Aldermen on the City Council Rules, Administration and Procedures Committee recently recommended changing the city’s ordinance regulating alcohol sales to allow 7 a.m. service for restaurants that serve only breakfast, brunch and lunch on Sundays.
The change was suggested by the restaurant Syrup, 1961 W. Galena Blvd., which is open only for breakfast, brunch and lunch. They said because they close in the afternoon and don’t serve dinner, they get less hours to serve alcohol, according to Jennifer Stallings, Aurora’s city clerk.“They asked if the city could consider modifying the hours for those places that aren’t open late,” Stallings said.
Ald. Carl Franco, 5th Ward, pointed out that the city used to allow early morning hours for some taverns - known for years as third-shift bars - for people who worked an overnight shift and wanted to stop for a drink after work. Stallings said the suggested change would not allow drinking at 7 a.m. everywhere, only for restaurants that close at 3 p.m. That would winnow out most regular taverns, and any restaurant that serves dinner.Aldermen on the committee recommended the change 5-0.
