Chain restaurant granted alcohol licence for new Leamington eatery
An alcohol licence has been granted for a possible new restaurant in Leamington Spa for chain restaurant Lounge.
The West Country-Based bar group has been granted the licence by Warwick District Council after submitting its application last month.
It has now been granted permission to sell alcohol on site at The Parade from 10am to midnight, seven days a week.
The application to the local authority states normal opening hours will be 8am until 0.30am, Monday to Sunday.
The licence was granted on April 9.
Lounge has not responded to our request for comment or details on when the eatery is likely to open.
The former clothing shop and tile showroom has also seen a planning application submitted for it to be turned into a restaurant.
"This application seeks full planning permission for the installation of plant and extract equipment to enable its occupation as a Loungers café/bar and restaurant," the application said.
"No additional floorspace will be created."
The application claims the new site, at the corner plot, will create 30 local jobs.
It continued: "The Lounges are all uniquely designed, with an emphasis on creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for families (as well as four legged friends).
"The aim of every Lounge is to tie in with local customers, so that they can make of the Lounge what they will; whether a customer wants to come in for a coffee after dropping children to school, a working lunch, or a tipple after work, Lounges can provide an environment for all these purposes.
"As well as these everyday activities, each site will be tied in with local charities and initiatives. For example, during the pandemic, a number of Lounge sites opened up to make food packages for local shelters and schools.
"Also, they will run reading groups, young mum's support groups, Christmas initiatives as well as a number of others."
