Children and the Melton Mowbray

[nmg]

I've now phoned Trading Standards at the City of London, and they can find no record of a condition on the license for the Melton Mowbray that would prohibit children. This would seem to contradict the duty manager's assertion that no children were allowed as a condition of their license. They also seemed interested that the Melton Mowbray were unable to show me the license copy or summary that they're required to have prominently displayed.

The next step will be to phone Fuller's head office and ask them to explain themselves.

To the best of my knowledge, the publican reserves the right of admission, so if they want to add extra conditions I can't really argue. However, don't lie by dressing it up as a legal imperative.
What you said. They can make up their own barmy rules (IIRC several Wetherspoon's have a "no hats" rule, presumably for the good of their CCTV), but they shouldn't pretend it's a legal thing if it isn't. And not having the licence to hand is definitely a Thing.

And that'll be the gist of my complaint to them.
