A Glasgow cafe’s bid to serve alcohol at the Forge Market has been turned down by the city’s Licensing Board after concerns over “day time drinking” were raised.
Bensons Cafe applied for a provisional premises licence as it wanted to offer a “small drinks menu” alongside meals when the Duke Street market is open.
But Glasgow’s health and social care partnership (HSCP) objected to the plan, suggesting it was “not a suitable environment for general sale of alcohol”.
