Fountains in Llandudno

CONWY Council's licensing subcommittee has until the middle of next week to decide whether to grant a premises licence for In Control Leisure Ltd to run Fountains Cafe Bar on Mostyn Street.

The bar was hit with a closure notice earlier this year following a serious assault near the premises.

The premises licence was surrendered by the previous holder in May 2025.

As reported in yesterday's Daily Post, Control Leisure Ltd's designated premises supervisor Aaran Lennox had applied for a licence to reopen the cafe bar.

It was initially proposed for the licence to be in operation between 10am and 4.30am between Monday and Sunday, but residents residents raised concerns about potential disturbance in “a residential area”.

Mr Lennox agreed to reduce the hours to 10am until 1am Sunday to Thursday and between 10am and 2am on Saturday and bank holidays.
