A liquor license transfer hearing for a farm-to-table wine bar will be held Wednesday at the Newtown Township Board of Supervisors meeting, according to the agenda.

Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar is looking to open in the Village at Newtown Shopping Center, which is planning a renovation and expansion.

But first, the restaurant needs liquor license transfer approval from the Newtown Township Board of Supervisors.

If the transfer is approved, CEO Dave Magrogan tells Patch he's hoping to open in the fall, pending all approvals.

The 6,425 square-foot restaurant and bar will be located where Margiotti and Kroll Pediatrics formerly operated.

According to its website, Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar offers an under 500-calorie, seasonally changing, local farm-to-table menu, plus more than 50 wines by the glass, seasonal cocktails and local beer.

"Every three months Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar changes the menu to reflect the change of the seasons. Harvest Seasonal Grill and Wine Bar works with 75 local farmers to source the freshest and highest quality products available," its website says.

Menu items include flatbreads, appetizers, vegetarian dishes, seafood, salads, sandwiches and more.

The restaurant says it prides itself on a sustainable and organic approach. That includes its ingredients, cleaning products, paper products and even recycled glass bar tops. "We are a truly a green concept," the restaurant says on its website.
