Greek takeaway chain Taka Taka has won a battle to stay open until 3am on Fridays and Saturdays in the Centre. The popular local chain faced opposition from Avon and Somerset Police and Bristol City Council who claimed that staying open later could “increase crime”.
Taka Taka, which has three locations in Bristol, was only allowed to open to the public until 2am on Fridays and Saturdays in its restaurant on Broad Quay, although deliveries could carry on until 4am. But its owners said there was a high demand for their food after 2am.
The restaurant has been opening on a temporary basis since February until 4am, under ‘temporary event notices’. But the council’s licensing committee has now granted a change to its premises licence, making the later opening permanent — although only until 3am, not 4am.
