However, the cut-off time for the sale of alcohol would not be changed from 2am as set out in the current licence.
Haven announced that the new venue is set to have “all the hallmarks of a beloved Wetherspoon venue”, including a variety of menu options and catering for a range of dietary requirements.
The leisure company has also applied to the council for permission to set up a bingo hall at its Blue Dolphin Holiday Park in Filey’s Gristhorpe Bay.
