Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this public house and restaurant, which was established in the 16th century and which has been in our clients’ careful hands since 2004. The pub is only now being offered to the market due to our clients’ wish to relocate. The business trades 6 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £260,000 per annum with a gross profit of 65% and a wet/dry split of 30/70. Our clients offer real ales, fine wines and spirits, along with traditional pub food and a takeaway service. There is also a selection of interior goods offered. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the opening hours and trading 7 days a week. There is also scope to embark on a modest marketing campaign to promote the pub further. The pub is at the heart of the community and hosts numerous clubs. The business has a loyal customer base, enjoying high levels of repeat trade and boasting excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. The pub has previously run successful ‘Group-on’ and ‘What’s What’ campaigns. There is a website in place advertising the business and services provided. The property boasts a spacious lounge, bar and restaurant areas, which are well-equipped to suit the trade. There is also recently refurbished 4-bedroom owners’ accommodation with lounge, kitchen and bathroom. Early negotiation with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
