Job Type: Leased & Tenancy, Pub Manager
Sector: Pubs and Bars
Contract Type: Full Time
Pub Layout
The pub is a large three-storey property. The trade area is split into two main areas with a mixture of fixed and loose seating, one large public bar which is dominated by a central bar servery, and also has a raised stage area to the rear for live entertainment, a pool table, and a television screen showcasing live sports. Toilets are situated to the rear of the room, and there is a small catering kitchen behind the bar area. The smaller tap room located to the right-hand side of the main bar area hosts a darts area. Outside to the rear can be accessed through both the main bar lounge and the tap room. The large beer garden includes a patio area with seating, a grassed area with picnic benches, along with a children’s play area in the corner. There is no car park at the pub; however, on-street parking is available.
Trading Style
The Mill trades as a community, drinks-focused pub; however, there is an opportunity to utilize the newly updated kitchen to develop a small pub food offer. Sports has always been a key element to the trade at this pub, with a large number of pool and darts teams frequenting the pub on a regular basis. Live sports and live entertainment are a must-focus part of the offer.
Accommodation
Private Accommodation can be accessed through the bar area along with private access from outside the pub. Split over two levels and recently refurbished in 2021, including new carpets and improvements to the bathroom and private kitchen, the accommodation is in good order. There are also four bedrooms, a lounge, and an office.
