A 'mismanaged' Edinburgh nightclub has narrowly avoided having its licence removed after police said staff failed to take action against excessive drinking, drug use and violence whilst employing unqualified bouncers.
Bourbon, on Fredrick Street, has been issued with a written warning from the City of Edinburgh Council, despite police recommending it's late 3am license be revoked, following a catalogue of incidents at the club since it re-opened after Coronavirus restrictions were lifted last summer.
At a meeting of the council's licensing board on Monday (April 25) Sergeant Marc Copeland said officers found a "failure to inform police of incidents taking place and a number of violent incidents".
