Alcohol Service Policy
Gruff’s Elite Banquets & Catering is committed to the responsible service of alcoholic beverages. We are dedicated to
upholding Florida State Law regarding sale and consumption of alcohol. Our staff is trained to recognize intoxicated behavior,
assess individual limits and to limit or refuse service when necessary. Therefore, the following policies are practiced
at all functions and events:
No guest who is under the legal drinking age of 21 years, or who appears to be and cannot furnish proper ID, will be served or be
allowed to consume alcohol.
We may refuse liquor service at a function with a significant number of underage guests or where, in our opinion, circumstances
might encourage violation of State alcohol regulations.
No guest who appears to be, in our judgment, intoxicated or shows signs of intoxication will be served.
We reserve the right to limit or suspend during any function where, in our opinion, Gruff’s liquor license may be in jeopardy or
where the comfort and safety of our guests may be in jeopardy.
No alcoholic beverages may be brought onto our licensed premises.
No alcoholic beverages may be removed from the premises or consumed outside of supervised areas.
Our staff must know who is drinking any alcoholic beverage. Therefore, if you’re ordering more than one beverage, our staff may ask
to see who the other beverages are for.
Alcohol service will end one half hour before the end of the function.
State law requires all alcohol services suspended at 2 a.m.
