THE PAPER BAG DELI
Serial 98093735 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused

Owner: Meals by Richard, LLC
Class 043 - Restaurant & Hotel Services
Filed Jul 20, 2023

The record shows that the mark “THE PAPER BAG DELI” is dead because the applicant, Meals by Richard, LLC, failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on July 20, 2023 and abandoned on July 19, 2024. It was a service mark on the Principal Register for restaurant and café services in class 043, with first use in commerce on February 14, 2022. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in the same food‑service context, such as a deli or café. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording in other industries. The prosecution history shows a standard non‑final action and subsequent abandonment, with no evidence of enforcement or opposition. The supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. If you’re thinking of a similar name for a food‑service business, this abandoned mark suggests a meaningful concern in that specific area.

Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.

Your name deserves a straight answer.
