Miss Millie's gets go ahead to open in Yate

Miss Millie's today got the green light from South Gloucestershire Licensing Committee to open in Yate until 1.30am 7 nights a week.

The Town Council  supported the principle, Chris Willmore on behalf of the Town Council told the Licensing Committee - we know residents have been looking forward to this.

But there is always a but - residents and the Town Council argued strongly against Miss Millie's proposed 1.30 am closing time. Everywhere else in town is shut by 12 on weekdays - even if they open later at weekends. So this extends the time people will finally disperse and go home by 1.5 hours.  It is likely to lead to other places deciding to open until 1.30am seven days a week. The Town Council and residents argued Miss Millie's should have the same closing times as other places in town.

Miss Millies will be in what was Hotcha on the corner of North Walk and North Parade.
