What we collect in Kentucky

New restaurant or bar drink license

Kentucky, statewide. Live state licensing report, checked daily.

Retail drink licenses newly issued by Kentucky ABC, one record per premises: the two restaurant licenses (NQ2 Retail Drink and Limited Restaurant), plus quota drink and beer-by-the-drink (NQ4) licenses when the business name says restaurant or bar. The state publishes no phone. Hotels, distilleries, clubs, venues, stores and premises where the same licensee already held one of these licenses are left out. A new license can also go to an existing restaurant or bar under a new owner; it is not a confirmed opening.

Kentucky Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control

New restaurant food permit

Louisville (Jefferson County), Kentucky. City table reloaded daily, checked daily.

Restaurants, cafes and bars whose food service permit Louisville Metro Public Health dated in the last 90 days, with the seat count when the city lists one. The date is the day the premises was permitted to its current owner, so a record can be a new restaurant or an existing one under a new owner; it is not a confirmed opening date. The city publishes no phone. Mobile units, caterers, commissaries, school, day care and hospital kitchens, hotels, clubs, venue stands and counters inside stores are left out.

Louisville Metro Public Health and Wellness

Franchise restaurant sold

Nationwide, a few a month. Checked daily.

When FranBizNetwork, the brokerage that runs Restaurant Intel, closes the sale of a franchise restaurant in Kentucky, the sold location is in the report too: address, brand, close date and the business phone when the brokerage has it. It is our own sale record, not a government filing, and the row says so. Never the buyer, seller or price.

FranBizNetwork

Not covered

  • Only what these registers publish, on the publisher's own schedule.
  • Phone numbers: a Kentucky row needs a lookup before a call, from the name, address and government link.
  • Loan requests. A filing shows activity, not a need for a loan; an ownership change is not a business for sale, and a franchise or chain is labeled, not removed.
