Property details
The Unicorn is a detached property situated in a residential area of Oswestry. The town centre and other shops and amenities including the leisure centre are all within walking distance. Oswestry is the largest market town in Shropshire and lies close to the Welsh border.
This pub benefits from having two entrances allowing separate access to the two trading rooms. The main bar area has recently undergone refurbishment with fresh and bright décor and new flooring. The prominent bar services both the main bar area and the lounge area. The main bar consists of seating for approximately 40 people and is home to a pool table and tv screens. The lounge area is balanced with loose and mixed seating and has a more traditional feel. The lady's and gents' toilets are located between the bar and lounge. There is no catering kitchen but there is a small prep area for a back bar offer which can be utilised for pies and pizza.
Externally there is a smoking solution which is accessed via the lounge and leads onto the car park which can hold approximately 15 cars. There is an enclosed area which is a fabulous sun trap in the summer months with ten large benches.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a sitting room, kitchen and bathroom all in good order.

Trading style
The Unicorn is a great example of a community pub, it is well supported all year round with numerous sports teams including darts and pool, which play home matches at the pub as well as welcoming teams from other establishments. Regular weekend entertainment such as karaoke and singers have previously been very popular along with mid-week quiz nights and bingo. Trade is made up purely of drinks sales and the bar is well stocked with a vast range of value products. At present, there is no cask ale however this would be a welcome addition to drive additional income into the business. There is an opportunity to develop the lounge trade by tapping into community groups and hosting functions.
This is a great example of a community-focused pub and would welcome a local person who is familiar with running a similar-style pub. A strong marketing plan is essential for ensuring the pub is busy seven days a week whilst continuing to work with local sporting teams.
