Does the City require a food and beverage or restaurant tax on businesses that sell food and/or beverages?

There is no additional food and beverage tax levied by the City of Evanston; there is a tax on liquor sales.  The rate is 6% of the sale price and is remitted on a monthly basis to the Revenue Office. You must be a registered liquor vendor with a license that is issued from the Legal Department.  More information may be found at: https://www.cityofevanston.org/how-to/home-rule-taxes
