24 HOUR ALCOHOL

24 Hour Alcohol offers UK consumers the opportunity to buy alcoholic beverages through the night, with the option of either on-demand home delivery or collection from a nearby 24hr off licence. The chance for retailers to sell beer, wine and spirits all night is possible due to the Licensing Act 2003, the so called 24 hour drinking law introduced in 2005, which enables establishments to apply for a licence to sell alcohol 24hrs a day, 7 days a week. Even more than a decade after the relaxation o... f times alcohol can be sold, it's still not always easy for the consumer to locate late night drinks. To solve this problem, the 24 Hour Alcohol database of 24 hour off licences includes all such premises in England & Wales, from large Tesco and Asda superstores to small independent supermarkets and petrol stations. 24 hour drinking does not apply in Scotland or Northern Ireland, where different licensing regulations apply. Sometimes it's not possible for consumers to visit a local store, which is where an alcohol delivery service is invaluable. Drinks are delivered at speed straight to the consumers door, with deliveries usually completed within a very short space of time, usually just a matter of minutes. A range of drinks are available: beers, wines, spirits, ales, ciders, champagne, alcopops, mixers and soft drinks, plus extras like cigarettes, snacks and takeaway food. More
