Property details
The Broadway is a large community, sports, and entertainment pub located in Beeston on the main dual carriageway just outside Leeds city centre. Leeds is one of the UK’s fastest-growing regional cities, known for its thriving retail, student, and sports scenes, as well as a strong events and nightlife economy. The Broadway benefits from excellent road links, frequent bus routes, and is only a 10-minute drive from the city. Centrally positioned within the local community, The Broadway welcomes a broad demographic and caters for a wide range of occasions. Thanks to its size and visibility, the pub has a commanding presence on a busy route into Leeds.
The pub truly offers something for everyone. With a large and versatile floor plan, it’s highly recommended that interested applicants visit as a customer to fully appreciate the space and atmosphere. On entering, guests are greeted by a prominent central bar servery that services all areas of the pub. To one side, there is a pool table and darts area, ideal for sports viewing or for locals enjoying a game. The opposite side offers a mix of carpeted and wooden flooring, transitioning from relaxed daytime seating to a lively party atmosphere at weekends. Sport is a key feature of The Broadway, with five TV screens and a projector making it a strong venue for major sporting events particularly exciting with 2026’s packed sports calendar, including the Six Nations and the World Cup. To the rear, booth seating and a wooden dance floor with a DJ station create a flexible entertainment space suitable for live music, weekend events, or smaller gatherings and club meetings during the day. The pub is also equipped with two sets of toilets, essential for managing busy evenings.
Externally, there is an attractive seating area to the front and side of the building, along with a car park accommodating up to 20 cars.
The private accommodation is a substantial size with three bedrooms, a sitting room, dining room and an office. This is all accessed from its own entrance to the rear of the pub. The private accommodation is currently being refurbished, which includes full redecoration, new carpets and flooring and general improvements throughout to ensure it's a comfortable and welcoming space.

Trading style
The Broadway is a true community pub with a loyal sports following. Leeds United fixtures are a major draw, with Elland Road just a five-minute drive away. With numerous TV screens available, there is a significant opportunity to maximise Sky Sports beyond football alone, showcasing a broad range of sporting events. Capturing trade both before and after key fixtures will be vital to fully capitalising on these occasions. Traditional events such as bingo and quiz nights continue to resonate strongly with local audiences and represent an area a new operator should actively champion. In addition to sports, the pub enjoys a strong late-night weekend trade, currently operating with a DJ until 2 am on Fridays and Saturdays to great success. Focusing on community events and fundraising is essential in our community pubs, so thinking outside the box to make the most of the space this pub has to offer, and planning events for all to enjoy.
The BDM describes this as a fantastic opportunity for operators who have already demonstrated success running similar pub formats. Applicants will need a proven track record in managing sports, community, and entertainment-led pubs, and be ready to elevate their operations to the next level. This is not suitable as a first-timer's pub. The ideal operator will bring ambition, strong leadership, and high operational standards, ensuring The Broadway is run efficiently and maintained to an excellent standard. Strong controls and discipline are essential when managing a pub of this size. The successful candidate will also place the local community at the heart of everything they do, making The Broadway a welcoming and inclusive hub for the area. To thrive in this role, passion, creativity, and energy are key, particularly when it comes to promotion and event planning. From live entertainment and community gatherings to family celebrations, the operator will deliver events that bring people together.
