Property details
The Kings Head, situated at the end of a highly competitive high street in Atherton, has recently undergone a £170,000 refurbishment, blending traditional charm with a modern, welcoming atmosphere. This turnkey venue is ready for an operator to step in and take advantage of its upgraded facilities and strong local appeal. The customers are mixed due to it being a high street and the level of competition on our doorstep. Located in the heart of a bustling town centre, close to local shops, transport links, and residential areas. The pub enjoys regular footfall from both day and evening crowds, with excellent potential for growing its customer base through community engagement and events.
The pub was restored to its original name during the refurbishment when the landlords uncovered its original, distinctive red-brick and green-tile frontage, a feature they were eager to keep! As you step through the front door of the pub, it takes you through the bar area, which has a fully equipped bar with a wide range of draught lagers, ciders, spirits, and snacks. Throughout the pub, there is comfortable seating and five TVs displayed for day-to-day TV and occasional sports on terrestrial TV. A games area features a pool table and a digital darts board; this area also provides access to the toilets.
To the rear, you will see the beer garden, which is an expansive garden area with resin flooring and a raised smoking solution. A car park is conveniently located at the rear of the pub.
The private accommodation has been refurbished to a good standard and consists of three bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
Following the recent investment, The Kings Head is focused on becoming a hub for the local community. Through the development of sports teams and a consistent rhythm of the week, the pub aims to build regular footfall, while vibrant live music events will drive strong weekend trade. By putting community at the heart of its offer, there’s a real opportunity to revitalise the pub. And whilst the pub may sit at the end of the high street, the presence has the potential to become a true destination; the landlords easily centre themselves and give great reason to visit throughout the week.
The BDM is looking for a motivated individual or couple to take on this exciting opportunity. Following recent investment in the pub, the landlords are seeking someone with a clear, strategic plan to drive weekly events that build footfall, particularly through midweek trading via sports teams and a strong programme of weekend entertainment. Creating a vibrant, lively atmosphere will be key to the pub’s success.
The ideal operator will be passionate about fostering a fun, welcoming environment, with a strong focus on community engagement. You’ll need to demonstrate experience in developing sports team events, implementing consistent weekday sales drivers, and delivering standout weekend entertainment. A proven track record in running entertainment-led and community-focused venues is essential. Experience operating a high street entertainment venue for at least 5 years is highly desirable.
