Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 5 Nov, 16:21 · Archive

A former furniture shop in Beeston Hill, Leeds, has been approved for conversion into a hot food takeaway.

Leeds City Council has approved an application to change the use of a premises at Hillside Buildings on Beeston Hill from a furniture store to a hot food takeaway.

The approximately 41 square metre shop will feature a customer waiting and serving area at the front, with a kitchen and food preparation area to the rear. A new shopfront and extraction unit are part of the plans. The business will employ approximately four full-time and six part-time members of staff, opening from 11am to 11pm daily.

A design report by the applicant said the extraction flue was designed to have minimal visual impact on the surrounding area. The council's report noted that as the operation would be predominantly a takeaway rather than a sit-in restaurant, it was not expected to generate significant demand for long-stay parking in the area.
