SALISBURY City Council's planning committee will meet on Monday to discuss plans for a new restaurant and a new mirco-pub in the city centre. 

Plans for a micro-pub on Milford Street - where Jimmy's Barbers used to be - have already been approved by Wiltshire Council,  but the premises licence also needs to given the green light. 

Sport & Entertainment Solutions Ltd wants to open a venue on August 31, "to operate as a small pub", with a maximum capacity of approximately 50 people.

If the licence is granted, the pub would be open from 11am to 11pm every day of the week.  

The licence application adds: "We are proposing to open a micro-pub which will sell mainly real ale and farmhouse cider straight from the cask and keg made by independent producers.

"A micro-pub is not a standard pub but rather is more like a traditional alehouse providing a relaxed and sociable atmosphere for a comparatively small number of customers.

"Without loud music, fruit machines or television it will feel like a small country pub despite its town centre location, meaning it will be attractive to discerning drinkers out for a quiet pint or two."

There is also a licence application for a new restaurant on 31 Catherine Street - previously the home of Greengages, which closed in August 2022. 

The planning application does not specify what kind of restaurant it would be. 

Salisbury City Council's planning committee meeting is at 6.30pm on Monday, August 19 at Salisbury Guildhall. Click here for more information.
