With you every step of the way
Bars and Pubs, alongside other drinking establishments (except night clubs) fall within Use Class A4, and can become the focal point for communities bringing a wide range of social benefits.
How will the Bar or Pub want to operate
Before we start the process we look at what you want to achieve in terms of hours of opening and whether you are wanting to run a predominantly vertical drinking establishment or have more of a focus on dining.
All these factors will help us to advise on the best strategy towards achieving this goal, using our experience we can discuss what conditions you would be comfortable with prior to the application being submitted to the local planning authority.
Location
Most local authorities are beginning to accept that well run bars and pubs can bring a real benefit to communities, however crucial to your location will be the type of client you are hoping to attract and the competition in the area.
Through utilising statistics on the local catchment area alongside crime numbers, we can provide an informed opinion on how well the type of establishment you are wanting to run is likely to do.

Other planning requirements and licences
Alongside the planning Use Class of the premises there may be additional requirements that need consideration before you open. Amongst these could be the need for an extraction system if you are serving food, a new shop front or advertising, or if you intend to serve alcohol then a liquor licence will be needed.
We can provide the complete service to ensure that all your requirements are dealt with, pulling together a team of specialists for each aspect of the project.

If you have applied for consent yourself and received a refusal then we can consider the reasons for that decision and advise whether an appeal is the best action or with our experience and input the application can be found acceptable.
