Pub Layout
Upon entering from the main road, you are welcomed into the bar area, which is anchored around a striking horseshoe-shaped bar. The walls are adorned with TVs, sporting memorabilia, and football scarves, all complemented by astro-turf flooring, emphasizing the vibrant sports theme that runs throughout the space. The bar area features a mix of low fixed and loose seating, alongside cosy sofa areas, creating a lively ambiance perfect for live sporting events. Additionally, the pub is equipped with a pool table and darts board, making it a true sports enthusiast’s haven.
A commercial kitchen is located to the right of the pub. While there was a previous plan to sub-let this part of the business, it has not been realized but could be a viable opportunity for a new licensee to explore. Behind the bar, a small prep area offers potential for housing a pizza oven, adding further to the food offering. The lounge area is designed with both fixed and loose seating, complete with its own bar and dance floor. This versatile space can accommodate up to 80 people, making it ideal for private functions, meetings, and events.
Trading Style
Currently operating as a wet-led venue, this sports-themed bar thrives on live televised sports and team games such as pool, darts, and dominoes. The bar is trading successfully, with a loyal customer base driven by its vibrant sports atmosphere. The function room offers an additional stream of revenue, with the potential for further growth through a targeted marketing strategy.
