Wendy’s fast food outlets in Peterborough apply for premises licences – but do not intend to sell alcohol
Two of the city’s more recent fast food additions have applied for premises licences.
The request has been made by Blank Table Ltd, a major franchisee for Wendy’s restaurants in the UK which is specifically driving the expansion of Wendy’s across the East of England.
While many businesses apply for such a licence in order to sell alcohol, this is explicitly not the case in both of these instances.
The application made to Peterborough City Council on April 15 stated there will be “no sale or supply of alcohol at the premises” within the two outlets at Bourges View Park on Maskew Avenue and Cygnet Road in Hampton.
Instead, the restaurants are seeking permission for “Music to be played via [a] speaker system inside the restaurant as background ambiance to [the] dining experience.”
In addition to the playing of recorded music from 7am to midnight, Monday to Sunday, the application also requests permission to offer late night refreshment between 11pm and midnight, daily.
Anyone wishing to have their say on this application can do so by making representations to the Licensing Section of Peterborough City Council before May 14.
The application(s) can be viewed in full by visiting the Licensing Public Register on the Peterborough City Council website at https://registers.peterborough.gov.uk/Licensing.aspx
