Discussions to take place
A premises licence is being sought for a new country music and dining venue on Plymouth’s Barbican.
The Montana Bar is situated at 5 and 6 Quay Road.
A request has been made to Plymouth City Council’s to play recorded music and serve late night refreshment until 1am as well as supply alcohol on and off the premises until that time. The site will open from 8am.
One letter of objection has been submitted to the authority over concerns of noise nuisance and disturbance to residents living above the bar. They have asked that music events finish at 10pm.
A report to Plymouth City Council’s licensing sub committee says the premises would operate as a country-style bar and dining venue offering “a controlled, seated drinking environment alongside gourmet bar food”.
The venue would have live country music, cowboy/cowgirl evenings, line dancing and even old rodeo sports on TV.
Decorative features would reflect an American country theme, including saddle-style bar stools and horseshoe-style lighting.
Live country music performances would be hosted on selected dates and be “managed at appropriate volume levels to ensure no disturbance to residence above”. Background music would be played at controlled levels, the application says.
The committee will discuss the application at its meeting next Monday (April 27)
