While technically they sold past the time indicated in the bylaw, my experience is that bartenders will generally take the orders of any patrons that were in line for a drink before the deadline. So when they get their receipt it will show it’s “too late”.
They will cut the line off but continue to fulfill the orders of people in line (which tends to go a few minutes past) because it’s a lot easier on staff to say it’s too late to get in line than to have potentially drunk patrons complaining that the bartenders were too slow and they’re only not getting their drink because the bartender was — at their job and not fast enough.
Essentially they are finding a happy medium that respects the law but diminishes the chances of an altercation.
Anyways it just seems like law enforcement has their focus in the wrong places. Tackle the big issues first then we can get to this “problem”.
Kinda reaffirms the feeling that the laws are strictly enforced for regular people, but not for the homeless population who are doing illegal things in public, often right outside of the clubs and bars.
