Rakkas, in Green Lanes, Harringay (Image: Google Maps) A restaurant and shisha lounge could lose its licence to sell alcohol after allegedly breaching coronavirus regulations. Councillors heard evidence that Rakkas, in Green Lanes, Harringay, opened and provided food, alcohol and shisha pipes during a national lockdown designed to stop the spread of Covid-19.
