Pub Overview
Exciting opportunity! This traditional pub, with its emphasis on quality food and drink, is set to become a favourite destination for diners, day visitors, and locals.
The area
We're investing in a full refurbishment of The Red Kite, a pub in Winlaton Mill, Gateshead, ideally situated to attract both locals and visitors. This unique location backs onto a popular country walk and faces a busy main road, with little nearby competition. With a strong local population and easy access to a broader demographic, The Red Kite offers a promising opportunity for an experienced food-focused licensee or chef patron.
The offer
The Red Kite has the potential to become a destination food pub offering a premium drinks selection, including cask ales, premium ales, lagers, an extensive wine list, and great coffee to entice customers throughout the day. With an entertainment package including acoustic music and local events, there is potential to host in the outdoor area.
We’re always open to new ideas; what would you do to drive trade?
If you’ve benefited from running or owning a pub business, we’d love to hear what experience you can bring.
The right operator for The Red Kite will have extensive experience in destination food outlet hospitality businesses. They will have a clear vision for their food & drinks menu, entertainment offer, and marketing strategy and can create a memorable experience for their customers.
