According to a recent permit filing, Hyde Tap & Lounge aims to debut in Richland at 502 Swift Boulevard.
Lissette Alvarez of Hyde Tap stated that they currently are waiting for a few things from the state. Once these things are finalized, more will be revealed about Hyde Tap’s opening date.
Hyde Tap & Lounge’s liquor license was filed under Hyde Tap and Lounge LLC. Alongside Lissette is Patrick Canizal for the concept. The liquor license filed was for a spirits, beer, and wine rest lounge permission.
According to an article from the Tri-Cities Herald, “The two-story restaurant with wrap-around outdoor deck was built to house Dupus Boomer’s Downtown, named for a 1940s era Manhattan Project cartoon. The family-friendly venue was meant to anchor Richland’s revival of its downtown corridor but only operated a little more than a year before it closed in late 2017.”
“It stood vacant until 2021, when it was transformed into Flight Tap & Table. But that closed earlier this year after its food permit was suspended. Now, in recent weeks, activity has been seen inside the closed-up 7,500-square-foot business as the new owners prepare to launch another taproom-themed venue.”
