Leicester’s Deli & Cheese Emporium (6253 Quinpool Road, 431-3771) is now licensed. Owner Bill Riley says he had no problem navigating through the complex Quinpool liquor rules, probably because he’s not intending to run live bands through the place, and he’s only serving beer and wine.
But Riley does plan on extending his hours, in a week or so. The deli will stay open til 9pm Thursday through Saturday, and will begin serving through supper hours on Tuesday and Wednesday (he currently serves only lunch on those days).
Pricing for beer and wine is “aggressive,” says Riley, with domestic beer at $3.04, and $3.48 for a glass of wine, plus tax.
