What we collect in Texas

Alcohol license with food service

Texas, statewide. State dataset, checked daily.

Original active alcohol licenses carrying a food-and-beverage certificate. No phone is published in this feed.

Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission

New restaurant sales tax permit

Texas, statewide. State dataset refreshed about weekly, checked daily.

Sales tax permits the Texas Comptroller issued in the last 90 days to restaurant, cafe, snack-bar and bar outlets, with the first sales date on the permit, which is often still ahead. A new owner of an existing restaurant also gets a new permit, so a record is a new permit, not always a new restaurant, and the first sales date is not a confirmed opening. The Comptroller publishes no phone. Outlets already selling more than 120 days before the permit, mobile units, caterers, hotels, country clubs, venues and apartment addresses are left out. The state does not mark home-based sellers, so individuals' snack-bar permits with no suite are left out too, and a home can still appear.

Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts

Restaurant certificate of occupancy

Fort Worth, Texas. City table reloaded each weekday morning, checked daily.

Restaurants, cafes, bars and other eating or drinking places that received a certificate of occupancy from the City of Fort Worth in the last 90 days, dated by the certificate: a new occupant of an existing building, a change of use, or a new building or remodel passed its final inspection. A business needs one before it opens, so a certificate comes right before an opening; it can also go to an existing restaurant under a new operator, so it is not a confirmed opening date. The city publishes no use type below the building code's class, so a record is one whose occupant or project name says it is an eating or drinking place or a national restaurant chain; food marts, grocery and smoke shops, nail and beauty bars, mobile units, caterers, wholesalers, institutions and venues are left out. The address is the certificate's premises. The city publishes no phone, county or ZIP for it.

City of Fort Worth, Development Services

Restaurant construction permit

Austin, Texas. City dataset refreshed daily, checked daily.

Commercial building permits issued by the City of Austin whose filed description names a restaurant, cafe, coffee shop, bakery, taqueria, bar or similar premises: new buildings, finish-outs, remodels, additions and changes of use to a restaurant, from issue through final inspection. The permit record does not name the restaurant operator or publish a phone; any business named in the description is as the applicant wrote it. Trade permits, demolitions, voided and withdrawn permits, permits with no work, temporary structures, school, office and apartment kitchens and conversions of a former restaurant to another use are left out. A permit is not a confirmed opening.

City of Austin, Development Services Department (Issued Construction Permits)

Restaurant construction permit

Houston, Texas. Weekly city files, posted three to five weeks late, checked daily.

Building permits the City of Houston sold (issued) in the last 90 days whose filed description names a restaurant, cafe, coffee shop, bakery, pizzeria, taqueria, bar or similar premises: new buildings, shell spaces, build-outs, conversions to that use, additions and remodels, from the city's weekly sold-permit reports, which the city posts three to five weeks after the week. The report lists no business name, applicant or phone; the description is the applicant's own wording. Demolitions, occupancy-only permits, conversions of a restaurant to another use, and school, office, apartment and hospital kitchens, ghost kitchens, store counters and hookah lounges are left out. A permit is not a confirmed opening, and a remodel, hood or grease-trap permit is work at an existing restaurant.

City of Houston, Houston Permitting Center (weekly sold-permit reports)

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 Texas, 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 Texas 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.

Other states with direct feeds
