Director Kyle Murray told Falkirk Council’s licensing board last year he wanted Taste to be a place where people would go for food and stay for the entertainment.

He said: “We’re trying to create a friendly environment — we don’t want it to be a drinking spot but an entertainment spot.

“We want to offer a new style of food and a new style of entertainment.”

Taste has table service and management hope to eventually have an app that will allow people to order food and drinks.
