Barnet Council's Licensing Sub-Committee has recently considered applications for new alcohol licences and variations, facing objections over noise and public nuisance.

Barnet Council's Licensing Sub-Committee recently considered applications for new and varied premises licences. In August 2025, residents objected to Vsands Trading Ltd's application for an off-premises alcohol licence in North Finchley. The sub-committee also considered a variation application for The Coffee Place & Breakfast in July 2025, following a resident's complaint about late-night music.

Also in July 2025, the sub-committee discussed a new licence application for Atmosphere Restaurant in Burnt Oak, which faced potential refusal. The Metropolitan Police and the Scientific Services Team (Environmental Health) raised concerns regarding noise and public nuisance for the proposed activities, including late-night opening until 04:00 daily. The Licensing Sub-Committee, which makes decisions on such applications, has no upcoming meetings scheduled.
