Falmouth cafe booze plan opposed
4:30pm Thursday 14th March 2013 in News
A new coffee shop and deli’s plans to sell alcohol from its premises in Falmouth are being opposed by town councillors.
Picnic Cornwall Ltd has applied to Cornwall Council for a premises licence in respect of 14 Church Street.
While Falmouth’s planning committee had no problems with the application in the main, councillors did not agree with alcohol being sold for consumption off the premises.

It's not as if they're proposing to sell Lambrusca to cackling groups of teenage girls tootering about in high heels or cheap lager to hooded brooding youths is it? Does anyone know what the objection was? Shouldn't the town being encouraging new businesses? I've also heard that some individuals are trying to get Beerwolf closed down. It's the best bar and bookshop west of Bristol and going gangbusters but will the town council support it? I doubt it very much. Falmouth probably deserves all the empty retail premises and charity shops. We'll end up like Jew Street in Penzance if we're not careful. Druggies, beggars, dogs on ropes and pound shops...

Tesco sells alcohol. Why not a Deli?
