Sarcoa taking the city of Hamilton to court

Hamilton’s Sarcoa Restaurant and Bar is taking the city and the Hamilton Waterfront Trust to court, fighting back against fines and orders to comply.

Sarcoa sent out a release today saying they’ve received multiple city fines and complaints about their loud music, but argue their ‘Miami Beach style patio’ was made clear before opening, and was never a hidden intention.

They say the Hamilton Waterfront Trust had approved their outdoor music concept when it was first brought up, and their recent complaints and fines are hurting their business.

Sarcoa says talks with the city have been unsuccessful, and they have been left with no choice but to take the issue to court.
