Property Description

The Dog is a well-established hot spot in the town centre of Clitheroe, Lancashire offering a sports focused bar during the day and a late-night music and dancing venue by night. Situated in a popular location with large amounts of passing trade from the nearby shops and local amenities, the bar offers a large open plan trading area with plenty of seating and space for dancing. There is an unused bar located upstairs which can be used to drive additional revenue including private function hire or transformed into a restaurant area. The bar also offers external seating in the front and rear beer gardens for guests to enjoy drinks alfresco in the summer months. Stonegate Pub Partners are now looking for a hands-on entrepreneurial operator who has good local knowledge of the town and the local businesses. The outgoing publicans have established the Dog as a late-night venue for many years, so the new publican can decide to build on its already good reputation or take the bar in a new direction.

Private Accommodation: The private accommodation comprises of three bedrooms, a living room, bathroom, and kitchen.

Trading Style

Indoor trading area

On entrance to the pub you are welcomed by one large open plan trading area which has a large serving bar, a DJ stand, TV’s for sports viewing, a dancing area and plenty of loose furniture and seating. There is an unused upstairs bar which could be used as it is or be converted for other use such as a restaurant, function room or letting accommodation.

Outdoor trading area

There is an intimate outside area to the front of the property with picnic tables which is very popular in the summer due to its high-profile position. There is a larger area to the rear of the building which would make an ideal space for a more upmarket external drinking space.
