Amendments to application
advised at hearing:
|
|
Mr Thomas, representing the
Applicant, confirmed at the hearing that it was proposed that the
take away service of food or drink for immediate consumption would
conclude at 01:00. It was proposed that
deliveries of hot food or hot drink would be available until
02:00.

Decision (including reasons if
different from those set out in report):
|
|
At the initial hearing of this application at the
Sub-Committee meeting on 2 February 2017, the Applicant applied for
an additional two hours for the sale of alcohol until 02:00 every
day of the week with a two hour reduction for late night
refreshment including takeaway from 04:00 until 02:00 every day of
the week. This related solely to the ground floor and basement of
the premises. Members of the
Sub-Committee were aware that the premises licence for the ground floor and basement did not
have the Council’s model restaurant condition attached and
the Applicant was not keen to have it attached in its entirety in
view of the fact that a takeaway service after 23.00 was critical
to its operating model. The
Applicant’s Representative asked for an adjournment to look
at his client’s options and this was agreed by the
Sub-Committee.
Due to the application having been part heard in February,
the new hearing had been scheduled for when the three Members who
had heard the original evidence were next
available. The
new hearing took place on 2 March 2017.
In a letter provided to the Sub-Committee prior to the
hearing on 2 March 2017, the Applicant offered food in the form of
substantial table meals prepared on the premises, that take away
service of food or drink for immediate consumption would conclude
at 01:00 (deliveries of hot food and hot drink would conclude at
02:00 as originally applied for) and that the sale of alcohol would
be to customers who would be seated and served by waiter or
waitress where the consumption of that alcohol would be ancillary
to the taking of a substantial meal.
Mr Thomas, representing the
Applicant was content for the Sub-Committee to hear initially from
Environmental Health and the Metropolitan Police who had made
representations in respect of the application. Mr Nevitt spoke on
behalf of the Responsible Authorities.
He stated that they had looked at the existing licence for the premises in comparison to what was
being applied for now. They had
