Property details
You’ll discover the Angel at the edge of Ware, a historic market town with character at every turn. Its position next to a small industrial estate has long brought in steady working‑trade custom, yet it remains just a short stroll from the town centre. That means reliable footfall from locals, commuters, shoppers, and visitors, all drawn from a surrounding mix of residential streets, small businesses, and light industry.
Ware itself is rich with attractions: Ware Museum, Scott’s Grotto, the Riverside Trail, Ware Lido, Amwell Nature Reserve, and the Blue Plaque Trail celebrating the town’s heritage. It’s a place people come to explore, relax, and enjoy, and the ideally placed to catch that flow.
Transport links make the town and the pub even more appealing. Direct trains to Liverpool Street and Tottenham Hale, quick connections to Hertford, and easy access to the A10 and A120 put Stansted, Bishop’s Stortford, and wider Hertfordshire within easy reach. Ware is commutable, liveable, and full of potential.
The Angel is the kind of pub where regulars greet each other by name, newcomers are welcomed without hesitation, and the atmosphere hums with warmth, energy, and genuine connection. For the right Publican, the Angel isn’t just a business opportunity; it’s a chance to take the helm of a beloved local institution and shape its next chapter.
The pub has earned a reputation for great beer, friendly service, and a professional, well‑run feel, and its weekly rhythm is full of life. Sports fans flock in for live screenings on TNT and Sky, with multiple screens and even dedicated Arsenal and Tottenham team bars creating a match‑day buzz that few venues can match. Add in darts, a separate pool room, poker nights, quizzes, games evenings, and occasional live music, and you’ve got a venue that stays vibrant throughout the week.
The layout offers that classic, traditional pub charm: a split‑bar setup, a proper darts throw, a cosy lounge area, and a pool room that feels like a world of its own.
Outside, the pub opens into a surprisingly generous patio garden, complete with four private garden cabins, each with its own TV, perfect for sports, gatherings, or themed events. A pétanque pitch adds a quirky, memorable touch, and there’s even parking for around seven cars.
The private accommodation consists of two bedrooms, a private kitchen, and a private lounge.
