Star Pubs and Bars Ltd, which owns The Sail Inn , in Queen Street, Lymington, had applied for the lifting of several conditions imposed in 2015 on the entertainment licence when it was The Fusion Inn, which restricted live music to twice a week and recorded music to every other Saturday.
Star Pubs and Bars had applied for music to be allowed from 10am to 11pm Sunday to Thursday and 10am to midnight Friday and 1.45am Saturday.
It also applied for a film licence allowing videos, sports games and films to be shown Sunday to Thursday 8am until 12.30am and Fridays and Saturdays from 8am until 2.30am.
There was no application to change the drinks licence which allows The Sail Inn to serve alcohol until 2am at weekends and midnight during the week.
The council’s licensing committee has now announced that it will lift the entertainment licence restrictions. The committee recognised that the premises had been closed for nearly three years and would be opening under new management.
