Property details
The Riverside Inn is situated in the picturesque town of Callander, alongside the River Teith. This local traditional pub boasts a strong, home-cooked food opportunity alongside a relaxed contemporary atmosphere which has recently benefited from substantial investment, highlighting them as one of the top destination pubs in the town. The town is located in the historic county of Perthshire on the main A84 with direct links to the M9 making this a popular tourist stop to and from the Highlands allowing this to capitalise on the high seasonal footfall in the town.
The Riverside Inn has recently undergone major investment. The landlords reconfigured and increased the size of the internal trading area, and updated the décor to a more contemporary feel.
The site is an open-plan trading area pub with the advantage of external seating areas both to the front and the more popular rear terrace overlooking the river. Given the main car park for visitors to the town is directly behind the pub, it has great visibility for visiting tourists and locals alike.
There is no private accommodation with this site.

Trading style
In the colder winter months, the pub very successfully serves the local community with its strength in food and entertainment in recent years, Given the huge potential of the peak summer months to drive food trade both inside and through the outside areas (both front and back) the site would suit a very experienced catering licensee capable of high volume peak trading service. Local knowledge will be advantageous to ensure that the regulars and local community continue to frequent the pub. Most important will be the drive and dedication to ensure that this site trades to its full potential. Callander continues to attract a wider profile of visitors throughout the year beyond the key summer months as winter activities continue to grow in walkers, cyclists, and off-road sports add to the leisure map around the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National park in which the pub sits, making the pubs prominent site a real advantage.
The successful licensee must be an experienced catering operator, with the ability to drive trade to maximise this key site in Callander. It will require the successful licensee to demonstrate the ability to manage a high-volume business, build a strong team and deliver memorable customer service. Given the business opportunity, the successful licensee will have to have available funds to invest in this substantial opportunity and is likely to have already proven ability to successfully launch a robust food-based business.
