Property details
The Crown is a charming, well-established village pub located in the heart of Swallowfield, an affluent Berkshire community close to Reading and Wokingham. Situated in the heart of the village, The Crown is close to major transport links: M4 (Junction 11), A33, Reading, Wokingham, with bus services to Reading and Aldershot.
Dating back to the early 18th-century, the attractive red brick building has strong kerb appeal. Inside, there is a characterful bar area with a wood-burning stove, multiple dining spaces suitable for 40–60 covers, and a flexible layout for casual dining, formal meals, or private hire.
Internal refurbishments will be considered in partnership with the owners.
Externally, there is a large beer garden with seating suitable for events, BBQs, and outdoor dining.
The private accommodation is a 3-bedroom flat above the pub with a kitchen, bathroom, and living room.

Experienced Operator
Trading style
With such a prominent position, The Crown has been central to the community for many years, including hosting local group meetings, quiz nights, supper nights, and many celebrations!
To make this pub successful, and given the area's demographic, the pub should be food-led, with a generous selection of beer and wine.
The landlords are looking for an operator with P&L ownership experience, and a very good understanding of marketing - no business is profitable without it! The local competition includes gastro pubs, so the operator must be able to create menus that stand out from the rest - not necessarily gastro, but wholesome, fresh meals!
A live-in landlord is a must, with a passion for village life, and an appetite for community involvement.
