Lounge bar granted licence

WINDSOR: A restaurateur has won his bid to service booze and play music despite concerns from Windsor locals, writes James Bagley, Local Democracy Reporter.

Members of the licensing subcommittee granted Anil Kumar, owner of the Lounge, a new premises, music, and alcohol licence – but with conditions.

The 13a High Street restaurant – which will specialise in cheese and wine – will open from 10:30am until midnight with no extension.

He must also create a ‘management plan’ with Environmental Health to prevent public nuisance.

A working CCTV system must be at standard to download any potential evidence for authorities such as Thames Valley Police.
