Business description
We are pleased to offer for sale this thriving public house, which was established in 1926 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 2001. The pub is only now offered to the market due to our client's other business interests. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £400,000 per annum with a gross profit of 55%. Barnaby Rudge offers an extensive range of real ales, fine wines and spirits. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and possibly introducing food trade. The pub also hosts regular live music, shows live televised sports and is home to the Barnaby Rudge Golf Society. This sports bar has a loyal customer base and receives much repeat trade. There is a website in place advertising the pub, facilities and the regular music and sports events. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and have been finished to a high standard throughout. There is also 3-bedroom owners' accommodation with lounge, kitchen and bathroom. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy public house with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with us must come highly recommended.
