Plans to open a ’boutique’ bar in a Yorkshire city centre have been turned down after claims it would be used for bottomless brunch ‘pre-drinking’ sessions.

Police objected to the application to open The Snug Club at a derelict building on Carter Street, in Wakefield, over fears that it would add to alcohol-related disorder in the area. The building, just off Westgate, is an area identified as a violent crime hotspot. Wakefield Council has a policy not to allow new licenses for bars in the so-called ‘cumulative impact zone’ unless in exceptional circumstances.

” Police barrister Daniel Penman argued that the premises would contribute to drink-related offending in the area. He referred to bottomless brunch menus for the new premises. Mr Penman said the offer includes unlimited pizza, cocktails and beer for 90 minutes, costing £30 per person. The deal is advertised as being available between 6.30pm to 8pm on Friday, 2.40pm to 4pm and 5.30pm to 7pm on Saturday and 6pm to 7.30pm on Sunday.
