Concerned citizens can help keep Houston bar and restaurant owners accountable by reporting crowded establishments not following COVID-19 state health protocols to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission as part of the agency's new undercover investigation.

The statewide crackdown, Operation Safe Open, launched last weekend and resulted in more than a dozen Texas bars receiving suspensions on alcohol permits for not following health protocols aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19. Two Houston bars were among those cited; Handlebar Houston off Washington Avenue and Barge 295 in Seabrook.

TACB will be working with local law enforcement again this weekend to check on establishments in possible violation. Residents who witness establishments breaking health protocols, such as operating at full capacity levels and not enforcing social distancing, are encouraged to submit a tip to the TABC by emailing complaints@tabc.texas.gov, calling 1-888-THE-TABC, or by using the free TABC mobile application.

“Our goal throughout Operation Safe Open is to encourage Texas businesses to operate safely," TABC Executive Director Bentley Nettles said in a news release. "Only those businesses which put their customers’ lives in danger will face penalties.”
