Property details
Dog & Quayle is located in the suburb of Underwood, close to the M1, giving it strong accessibility for residents and passing trade. Around 2,000 adults live within a 20-minute walk of the pub, creating a solid local market to build from.
The wider area has a small but established pub scene, with five competitors noted within roughly a 15-minute drive. The opportunity for Dog & Quayle is to stand out as a more premium, better-presented local pub with a competitive social area, refreshed dining space, and a food offer that moves beyond the carvery-led trading of the past.
The pub has been closed and previously relied on a basic carvery offer with limited volume and few destination visits. Following refurbishment, the new look and improved offer will help broaden its appeal, attracting families, casual diners, younger professionals, and customers looking for after-work socialising.
The pub's trading area and facilities post-refurbishment will be:
- Main trading area with bar
- Separate dining room
- Snug area
- Separate games and sports zone
- 94 internal covers
- 16 external covers
- Refitted catering kitchen with a new full custom kitchen
- HEINEKEN SmartDispense
- Private accommodation comprising a three-bedroom self-contained flat with living room, kitchen and bathroom
- Car park with 30 spaces
The private accommodation consists of 3 bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

A refurbishment is planned to spend in the region of £225,000 to transform Dog & Quayle into a premium local pub with a stronger food offer, refreshed trading spaces, and improved kerb appeal.
The investment will reposition the pub as a more appealing destination for residents, casual diners, families, and after-work socialisers, while creating a long-term pub offer that better serves the Underwood community.
The refurbishment will transform Dog & Quayle into a more premium local pub, with refreshed interiors, a new dining space, upgraded gaming and entertainment area, improved external signage, and stronger roadside appeal. A new full custom kitchen will support a plated food offer that moves the pub beyond its previous carvery-led trade, while the competitive socialising area and 16 external covers create more reasons for customers to visit, stay longer, and return throughout the week. The right licensee will bring ideas across food, drink, entertainment, and local marketing.
This investment is designed to rebuild the pub’s role in the local community, modernise its trading spaces, and create a premium local offer that better meets customer expectations. The refurbishment is anticipated to increase turnover by creating stronger reasons to visit, including improved dining, better entertainment facilities, upgraded kerb appeal, and a more competitive customer experience.
If you’ve benefited from running or managing a pub or catering business, the landlords would love to hear what experience you can bring.
The right operator for the pub will have extensive experience in a similar hospitality business. They will have a clear vision for their food offer, as well as their calendar of events that will drive the drinks trade and provide a memorable experience for their customers.
If this sounds like the incredible pub opportunity you’ve been waiting for, apply today and tell the landlords what you can bring to this pub’s next chapter.
