Job Type: Leased & Tenancy, Pub Manager
Sector: Pubs and Bars
Contract Type: Full Time
Pub Layout
The Kings Way boasts a beautifully decorated internal trading space which is divided into three distinct trading areas allowing the operator to provide suitable seating depending on what customers are looking for, whether that be relaxing for drinks with friends or enjoying a meal in a more secluded area of the bar. The focal point of the pub is a horseshoe-shaped bar allowing ease of service. The bar is very well appointed allowing for marketing of a wide range of both draught and top-shelf products. The restrooms are located upstairs as is the large function room which is ideal for hiring out for those special events and/or business meetings. There is a good-sized commercial kitchen (also upstairs) which is serviced by a dumb-waiter, which provides the tenant with the option to offer food. The pub has an outside drinking area at the front of the pub, providing relaxed drinking and allowing customers to watch the world go by.
Trading Style
The Kings Way is a great pub. The nature of the city location means customers are in the area all day and night, whether that be office workers from the Town Hall, customers visiting the King’s Hall, or Stoke City football fans who gravitate to this pub on match days. This is a real chameleon of a pub and offers a licensee the opportunity to drive trade throughout the day with different customers frequenting at different times. The function room offers lots of potential for local businesses as a meeting room for business meetings, alongside events such as social events, intimate weddings and wakes.

There is accommodation available for the tenant, with the private quarters being upstairs with 4/5 bedrooms and two rooms on either side of a corridor.

BDM Vision
We are looking for a dynamic licensee/couple who has experience in this type of site. We envision the Kings Way will be a hub for community engagement, centred around Stoke City FC with the pub being a vibrant space, hosting live screenings, fan meet-ups, and post-match celebrations. Beyond football, the licensee should provide evening entertainment, fostering local talent and creating memorable experiences. Through partnerships with local organizations, they should aim to promote wellness initiatives, sports events, and charity drives, enhancing community cohesion. Our vision is to create a welcoming haven where passion for sport thrives.
