The Quincy Board of License Commissioners convened on May 27, 2025, to address several key agenda items concerning local businesses and their licensing requests. The meeting focused on two primary applications for liquor licenses and a common victualer license.
The first item discussed was a request from Vang Coffee Bar, located at 1456 Hancock Street, for a one-day liquor license for a special event titled "Spring into Summer." Scheduled for May 31 from 5 PM to midnight, the event aims to introduce a new concept at the coffee bar. After a brief discussion, during which no questions or concerns were raised by the audience or board members, a motion was made to approve the request. The motion passed unanimously, allowing Vang Coffee Bar to proceed with their event.
The second agenda item involved Linda Banh Mi LLC, doing business as Banh Mi Boston, located at 716 Hancock Street. The request was for a common victualer license due to a change in ownership, with Linda Lynn Nguyen proposed as the new manager. The current operations of the business will remain unchanged, and the same employees will continue to work there, with the possibility of hiring one additional staff member. After confirming that there were no questions from the audience or board members, a motion was made to approve the license request. This motion also passed unanimously.
In summary, the meeting concluded with both businesses receiving the necessary approvals to enhance their operations and events, reflecting the board's support for local entrepreneurship and community engagement.
