A city centre cocktail bar which has forfeited its licence was “in the wrong place” according to a councillor who instigated a review of the venue.
Proprietors of the former On Point bar on Victoria Street had been expected to be hauled in front of Liverpool Council’s licensing and gambling sub-committee next week to defend its right to trade alcohol after complaints were made about noise from the venue. That meeting was scheduled after an initial deferral as city centre Cllr Nick Small, who applied for a licence review, was unable to make the crunch hearing.
As reported by the ECHO previously, On Point bosses have spoken with Liverpool Council about its new site 300m away on Eberle Street. The new bar will be known as It’s On Point and will serve alcohol on and off the premises from midday to 1.45am Thursday to Saturday, and midday to 1am Sunday to Wednesday.
