Ipswich Borough Council has given The Station Hotel in Ipswich the nod to serve alcohol from 8am.
The big picture: This change allows The Station Hotel, located opposite Ipswich railway station, to start serving two hours earlier than before, potentially benefiting from increased trade from away football fans on match days.
Key details:
The Station Hotel is on Burrell Road, near Portman Road stadium.
Ipswich Borough Council approved the pub's application to alter its licence to allow it to serve alcohol from 8am.
The pub's entertainment licence and opening hours remain unchanged.
The bottom line: This is the most recent in a number of developments at the pub, having recently had an application approved for a second bar in the basement and unveiled a new £200,000 garden bar to accommodate more customers.
