HAMPTON Al Fleury got the green light Wednesday to expand his beach bar empire with a new outdoor Mexican-themed restaurant at Hampton Beach.
The town Planning Board voted 4-2 to approve the site plan for Luchos Tequila Bar at 16 L St. Fleury also owns Bernie’s Beach Bar, Wally’s Pub, and The Goat and the Green Room at Hampton Beach.
“It will be another stop for people,” said Fleury who hopes to open the Mexican eatery by late July or early August.
The property, which is near Fleury’s Goat restaurant, currently consists of two homes that have been used for residential apartments.

Nightly concerts, fireworks and more return
Many of the beach events were canceled last summer due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event kicking off the summer is one of the few held last summer and that is the Hampton Beach Sand Sculpting Classic. It returns for its 21st year June 17-19.
Organizer Greg Grady said last year they were the only sand sculpting contest in the world that was not canceled.
