No phone on a filing yet? That usually means you're early. A new filing is often a place that hasn't opened, so there's no listing to call. You get the name and the address now, and we keep looking for a phone for a month and add it when one turns up.

How to look up a liquor license in Washington

Use the LCB's lookup at licensinginfo.lcb.wa.gov to check one license by name, number or address. This page lists what's new, from the same record.

Every row here is a public record Washington publishes. We check each state's rules before we carry it and leave out any that restrict commercial use of licensee lists; so far that's only Kansas. About the data.

Questions about the Washington page

How do I find new liquor license applications in Washington?

Washington publishes them at licensinginfo.lcb.wa.gov, where its tools answer one search at a time. This page reads that record as often as Washington updates it and lists what's new by county, city and license type, each row linked back to the filing.

Can I get an alert when a new bar or restaurant shows up in Washington?

Yes. The free Watch email sends each week's Washington list on Monday: city, license type, status and date, without business names. A Washington subscription, $79 a month, sends every new filing the morning after it appears, with the business name and address, and for new bars and restaurants a phone number or website looked up online where the state prints none. A CSV, an API and webhooks come with every plan.

How often does the Washington page update?

The Washington source refreshes every weekday, and this page is rebuilt from it each morning.

Where does the Washington data come from?

Every row is read from licensinginfo.lcb.wa.gov, the public record Washington itself publishes, and links back to it. Nothing here comes from a reseller or a news report.

What does the free Washington sample contain?

Every Washington filing from one full week a few weeks back, in the layout a subscriber gets: business, address, license type, status, the date filed, and a phone or website where we found one. The link to each state record is left blank; subscribers get it. It downloads ready for HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, AgencyZoom or Repsly.

What do the license types mean?

The types you will see most on the Washington page. Full-bar restaurant, Lounge + (424): A restaurant pouring spirits, beer and wine with a 21-and-over bar lounge; the plus and minus are the LCB's two lounge fee tiers, set by how much of the room is dining. Grocery store, beer and wine (450): Grocery, convenience or gas-station beer and wine to go. Beer and wine restaurant (462): A restaurant serving beer and wine, no spirits. Full-bar restaurant, service bar only (442): Full liquor but no lounge; drinks are mixed at a service bar and carried to the tables. Full-bar restaurant, Lounge - (426): A restaurant pouring spirits, beer and wine with a 21-and-over bar lounge, on the other lounge fee tier from Lounge +. Every row shows the type by its plain name; the i beside it opens the state's own wording.

What is left out?

One-day and temporary permits (weddings, festival booths, charity auctions, tastings), and licenses nobody sells to: wholesalers, suppliers, importers, shippers, carriers, and employee or manager permits. Breweries, wineries and distilleries stay in. The first time we read a state we also treat everything it already listed as the starting point, not as new filings.
