The Volunteer Arms is located in Lewes, a busy market town with a strong beer heritage, long-standing traditions and a vibrant hospitality scene. The town is well served by premium, food-led venues, but there is a clear gap for a quality, premium, wet-led sports offer. The pub already trades well, and the planned refurbishment will help protect its existing customer base while giving it stronger relevance in the local market. The surrounding area benefits from strong demographics, with a high proportion of mature and midlife customers, including carefree groups who are well-suited to the Premium Local pub concept. The pub is also positioned in a town centre circuit, close to the High Street and train station, allowing it to appeal to locals, regulars and visitors travelling into Lewes.
The Volunteer Arms is a welcoming local pub, providing a premium drinks range that combines a quality pub atmosphere, live sports and social events.
A full refurbishment of this pub is planned to help you drive trade. Applicants should be aware that all refurbishments are subject to final board approval, which will be determined as part of the leasing process.
The refurbishment will enhance the pub’s Premium Local concept, creating a stronger drinks-led offer with a clear sports zone, refreshed trading areas and an improved beer garden. The scheme will make better use of the existing open-plan layout, while supporting live sport, social occasions, pub games and everyday drinks occasions.
The pub’s trading area and facilities post-refurbishment will be:
- Main trading area with bar
- Lounge area
- Games and sports area
- Clear sports zone
- Pool
- Darts
- Beer garden
- External seating area
- HEINEKEN SmartDispense®
- Coffee offer
- Two AWPs
- Private accommodation
- Separate office
