Flight Tap & Table at 502 Swift Blvd. in Richland has had its food permit suspended and must provide food service to sell alcoholic beverages under its Washington state ******* license.

Its ******* license was issued for a restaurant with a lounge required it to serve meals, and not just snacks, prepared on site, and for the business to be maintained as a place for preparing, cooking and serving meals with a chef or cook on duty.

An official with the state ******* board stopped by the business after its food permit was suspended and found it closed at that time, according to a spokesperson for the board.

Officials contacted the owner of Flight Tap & Table to let them know that serving alcohol, and not selling food, would be a violation of the business’s ******* license.

To end the suspension of its health district food permit, it must have an in-depth conversation at the district office to delve into the source of its food safety issues.

The health district said Monday that the owners of Flight Tap & Table had contacted the health district but had not moved toward reinstatement of its food permit.
