Job Type: Leased & Tenancy, Run a Pub, Pub Manager
Sector: Pubs and Bars
Contract Type: Full Time
Pub Layout
The Retired Soldier is a two-room operation serviced by a well-stocked single bar servery. Its layout is practical and compact which allows ease of service to all areas of the pub providing the opportunity for a single person operation. It is in good decorative order and has been well looked after. Externally, the pub has a small patio area to the front which proves popular in the summer months and the domestic kitchen is located on the ground floor to the rear of the bar.
Trading Style
This pub has a good reputation within the community as a great cask ale pub and is proud of its Cask Marque accreditation. The licensee has created a warm and friendly welcome to both locals and visiting tourists and has previously been known as a destination for sports fans to watch live action sports whilst enjoying a beverage with friends. The Retired Soldier has historically had its own darts team and this was a welcome addition to the income at the site, having regular league matches with the local community.
Accommodation
The private accommodation has two bedrooms, kitchen, office, and bathroom all in good order.

BDM Vision
The new licensee will ideally have a great knowledge of the local area and they will continue to keep the traditional pub values and feel of the pub, putting the local community/customers at the forefront of everything they do. I am looking for an individual or couple with an excellent knowledge in cask ale who can show they have determination and a passion for people, product, and business. I believe that someone that wants to make a difference to their local community will really have a great opportunity here and the ability to enhance the small back bar snack menu and introduce an active rhythm of the week, will increase income into the business.
