Overview

Offering complimentary drinks such as prosecco or wine has become popular in luxury salons and spas, but many owners don't realise it can require a licence. Alcohol licensing law exists to protect the public and prevent underage drinking, disorder, and unsafe service. Any salon serving or selling alcohol—whether included in treatment packages or offered for free—must ensure it operates within UK licensing legislation.
