Krispy Kreme claims that its business on the street is a retail outlet, no different than the business that preceded it at the same premises. Picture: Cian O'Regan.

Krispy Kreme has appealed against Cork City Council's decision to refuse permission for its location on Patrick's Street in the city centre.

The retailer had sought retention permission from Cork City Council for a change of use from previous retail use to a cafe, as well as the retention of shopfront and signage at its branch on 42 Patrick’s Street.
