Why it was refused

  1. - The proposed opening hours would result in unacceptable noise and disturbance to neighbouring residential properties arising from customers leaving and dispersing from the premises during the late night and early morning hours. The resulting harm to the residential amenity of the surrounding area would be contrary to Policies D6 and D14 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies D.DH8 and D.ES9 of the Tower Hamlets Local Plan (2020).

From the council's decision notice.
