A representative of a popular cocktail bar in Nottingham which is looking to expand says it has been asked by Nottinghamshire Police to employ an “absurd” number of door staff as a condition for staying open longer.
Brass Monkey, in High Pavement, has been operating for 23 years and the owner is now seeking permission from Nottingham City Council’s licensing panel to extend the licensable area to the third floor.
The ground floor had been licensed in 1999 and the first floor was licensed in 2000.
