This is a well-established, food-led destination pub with a strong local following and a reputation for quality dining and a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. Food is a major driver of the business, having achieved sales of approximately £8,000 per week in the recent past, supported by a consistent bar trade that, while quieter during the winter months, averages £2,000+ per week across the year. The kitchen operation is complemented by a varied and engaging food offer, including popular themed food evenings that have historically proved highly successful, a regularly changing weekly specials board that adds variety and repeat appeal, and a well-regarded Sunday roast that continues to draw strong demand from residents and families. During the warmer months, the extensive outdoor areas become a significant draw, with the patio and gardens well-suited to al fresco dining and outside entertainment, both of which have been successfully utilised in the past. The family garden in particular has enhanced the pub’s reputation as a relaxed, sociable destination for all ages. With its strong food credentials, proven trading history, flexible indoor and outdoor spaces, and established customer base, the pub is well positioned to continue trading as a vibrant community hub with food firmly at its core, while still offering solid bar sales and opportunities for events and seasonal growth.

This is not a starter pub and would be best suited to an experienced licensee or a hands-on couple with a strong mix of front-of-house and kitchen skills. The business has multiple revenue streams and operational elements, requiring a licensee with the ability to manage a diverse offer while maintaining consistently high standards across food, service, and customer experience. Success will depend on the ability to market the business effectively, both within the local community and further afield, keeping the offer fresh, relevant, and appealing through regular menu development, promotions, and events. Strong cost control and confident profit & loss management will be a key part of the back-of-house operation, ensuring the business trades efficiently and profitably year-round. For the right licensee, this represents an exciting opportunity to run a well-established, food-led community pub with significant potential. With energy, commercial awareness, and a clear vision for local engagement and growth, the business is well-positioned to continue building on its strong reputation and deliver long-term success.
