Permission to open late at night has been granted to another premises on Churchill Way in Cardiff's new 'Canal Quarter' despite objections from residents. The street is already home to Pulse nightclub and late-night bar The Kings, with the new Dock Feeder bar expected to open "very soon."
An application for The Sandwich Bar, a restaurant and café next door to Pulse, to remain open for 24 hours was made in April 2023. The restaurant doesn't serve alcohol but the application still quickly received objections. Some were from residents who appeared to think the application related to Pulse's alcohol license, which it does not.
But one from Councillor Norma Mackie said: "We believe this premises is owned by the chain of five premises on Churchill Way that includes the Pulse Night Club and we strongly object to the removal of Condition 3 to allow the premises to be open for 24 hours.
