Job Description
If you are interested in running your own pub business, the Grand Union in Leicester is available now.
The Grand Union is a one room bar with a good commercial kitchen situated in the New Walk area of Leicester. It attracts students, office staff, Tigers and Foxes fans on their way to and from the games as well as city centre weekend circuit drinkers. It’s a great town centre pub attracting a range of guests throughout the daytime and into the evening that is underperforming currently but has huge potential. There is 40 covers in the pub and a small outside area. There is a 1 bedroom living accommodation upstairs.
The Grand Union needs someone with a strong commercial food background to maximise the limited capacity of this great pub. With the right operator the business will flourish with the implementation of a town centre style food offer, a strong and varied rhythm of the week along with the fantastic drinks range to appeal to all guests there is opportunity to double the sales on a weekly basis.
The site currently takes on average £3,500 but has the potential to achieve up to £8-10k a week by targeting extra food and drinks sales.
What’s in it for you?
- 20% share of weekly wet sales, excluding VAT.
- Keep 100% of the food sales.
- Low ingoing costs, starting with just a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost. (*deposits can vary dependant on business – ask us for more details*)
- Accommodation included with most bills covered, except the council tax & TV License.
