The Take a Gander is a destination dining venue with a good reputation and strong social media scores for its food offer. Currently the trade is split 60/40 in favour of food and this is the level of trade we would generally expect the pub to maintain. As well as the food offer this is a community village pub with a strong regular trade, and the added benefit of being able to host functions. The current operators regularly cater for functions ranging from birthday celebrations to weddings, and this provides a welcome boost to the regular trade. The offer has very much a premium feel and prospective candidates should have the necessary skill set and experience to build on the existing excellent reputation.
