Douglas bar hopes to extend operating times

A popular bar in Douglas wants to extend it's operating times

1886 Bar and Bistro on Regent Street is seeking planning permission to change its existing hours.

If approved, it would see the venue able to run between 11am and 3.30am seven days a week.

Currently it can operate between 11am and 2am Sunday to Thursday and 11am to 3.30am on Fridays and Saturdays.

It comes after the night spot recently got permission to expand its floor space into the former Herrons Country Fried Chicken restaurant which closed in February this year.
