At a glance

Based on auto-generated captions and the posted minutes; names may be misheard.

  • What: Worcester Vice, LLC applied for a general on-premises all-alcohol license, a broad entertainment license (DJ, live music, karaoke, dancing, amplification) and outdoor radio, recorded music and amplification for a new bar and nightclub at 27 Pleasant Street.
  • Where it stands: approved 3-0 on 2026-09-10 per the captions (the minutes show no vote line), with outdoor amplification to stop at midnight.
  • Next: state ABCC review (four to six weeks); the operator must still obtain inspection and occupancy sign-offs.

The proposal

  • Applicant representative: Andrew Lapin of Littleton (spelling per captions), described as a first-time applicant.
  • Space vacant for several years; a bar and nightclub combination catering to the gay community.
  • Outdoor amplified music would be at the rear of the building, not on the Pleasant Street side.

Conditions and concerns

  • The Commission did a site view; the only issue was outdoor amplification, to be shut off at midnight (the chair first floated 11 p.m.).
  • A manager of a business at 446 Main Street across the street asked when the music starts and was reassured it is at the back.
