Board grants entertainment license to Troya Cafe with restrictions on live music
Summary
Troya Cafe at 278 New Boston Road received an entertainment license for recorded music, karaoke and trivia on specified evenings; board clarified no live bands and set hours for weekdays and weekends.
The Fall River Licensing Board approved an entertainment license on July 16 for Troya Cafe, 278 New Boston Road, allowing recorded music, karaoke and trivia nights with specified hours and no live bands.
Owner Paul Saldana told the board he plans to run small trivia nights and karaoke “once in a while” and that the venue is too small for live bands. He confirmed hours of operation of 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday; he said he is not seeking entertainment permission for Sundays.
The board noted that the license type permits recorded music and limited entertainment, and a member clarified that live bands were not approved. A motion to grant the entertainment license was seconded and approved by the two members present.
Saldana described the business as having started as a coffee shop and then expanding to evening food and drink service. Board members and Saldana discussed neighborhood context and nearby businesses; no police objections were recorded on the transcript.
