Council weighs up fee rise for cafe tables
Western Morning News
|February 16, 2026
THE cost of putting tables and chairs outside cafes and restaurants could be about to rise in East Devon.
Efforts have been made to glean feedback from businesses about the future of pavement licences via a public consultation last year and now a new policy has been adopted.
Linked to that is the prospect that East Devon's current fees could soon rise.
East Devon District Council currently charges £100 for a two-year licence to have chairs and tables outside a property, but national guidance says maximum fees for new applications can be £500 and £350 for renewals.
