The Poverina Inn is located in Normanby on the outskirts of Middlesbrough. The Pub already sits at the heart of the local community and benefits from a prominent roadside position surrounded by a mix of private and council housing.
The pub currently offers a variety of trading spaces, including sports, food, entertainment, and function areas, alongside spacious external trading areas, a children’s play area, and a large car park.
Please note that the final layout and trading style may evolve as part of the planned Grandstand investment.
With the relaunch planned for October 2026, this is the perfect opportunity for an ambitious operator to get in early, establish themselves within the local community, recruit and develop a strong team, and immerse themselves in the landlord's way of working ahead of what promises to be an exciting new chapter for The Poverina.
There is substantial growth potential following the investment, with forecast sales expected to exceed £15,000 per week. Opportunities exist to drive trade through live sport, entertainment, functions, community events and a strengthened branded food offer.
With huge screens, top-tier entertainment, great food & drink, and an unbeatable atmosphere, our Grandstand pubs are built for people who live and breathe live sport. They don’t just show sport – they live it. From matchdays to live music and big sporting moments, Grandstand pubs are where local communities and fans come together, and where your next partnership could start.
