Puerto Vallarta restaurants will serve alcohol during election weekend

The law known as ‘Ley Seca’, or Dry Law, prohibits the sale of alcohol at stores, bars, and restaurants during election weekends in the State of Jalisco; however a last minute amendment will allow the sale of liquor at restaurants with food purchases in the tourist destination of Puerto Vallarta.

Restaurants will be able to serve alcohol to dining customers only, and alcohol may not be served in original bottles, for example beer must be served in a glass, as past election amendments have allowed. The amendment is to ensure alcohol is not sold in restaurants and transferred to another . . .
