The Hackney Licensing Sub-Committee decided to refuse the application for a premises licence for Gauchoworld Space on 07/10/2026. The application was refused as the committee considered granting it would undermine the licensing objectives. The decision was made after considering representations from local residents and responsible authorities regarding public nuisance and disorder.
