Wrexham, UK
Asking Price:
£6,000 Furniture / Fixtures included
Turnover:
£500K - £1M
Net Profit:
£100K - £250K

An exceptional opportunity has emerged to acquire a thriving, fully fitted, and beautifully refurbished pub located in the heart of Wrexham city centre. The pub, previously operating as part of a well-known national chain, underwent a meticulous transformation by the current owners, with a substantial investment of £250,000 in late 2023. Since its reopening in December 2023, this establishment has quickly established itself as one of Wrexham’s premier hospitality venues.

Financial Highlights

This high-performing establishment boasts an impressive annual turnover of £1.3 million for the year ending 2024. After accounting for exceptional costs, the net profit stands at approximately £253,000. The business primarily generates revenue through wet sales, which account for about 80% of total revenue with a healthy gross margin of 60%. Food sales contribute 20% of revenue with a gross margin of 40%. Additionally, machine revenue averages around £2,500 per week.

Lease and Terms

The asking price for this turnkey business is £60,000, which includes a lease assignment with seven years remaining at a monthly rent of £2,500. This represents a rare chance to step into a well-established, profitable venue with an extensive customer base.

Facilities and Equipment

The sale includes all fixtures, fittings, and systems necessary for operation, such as a £30,000 advanced AV system, a Python/smart beer dispense system, a kitchen fit-out worth over £50,000, and a full inventory of furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) along with a POS system.

Location and Growth Potential

Situated on one of the busiest streets in Wrexham city centre, the pub is surrounded by national retailers, banks, and transport links, ensuring high visibility and foot traffic. The location presents significant growth potential through:

Extended food offerings
Late-night trading opportunities
Increased machine revenue
Private hire and event options

Acquisition Details

The transaction includes a lease assignment, a £7,500 lease deposit, goodwill, all fixtures, fittings, and systems, as well as assignable contracts for utilities, rates, EPOS, and supplier accounts. The seller provides a full handover and operational training to ensure a smooth transition for the new owners.

Opportunities for Buyers

This is an ideal investment for operators, investors, pub companies, or multi-site hospitality buyers looking to capitalize on a well-established, high-turnover public house.

Location:

The Midland occupies a landmark corner position at 14 High Street, in the very heart of Wrexham city centre. The former Midland Bank building is one of the most recognisable frontages on the High Street, with excellent visibility, heavy pedestrian footfall and immediate proximity to the main shopping, office and transport areas. Wrexham's elevation to city status in 2022 and the high-profile investment in the area — including the global attention around Wrexham AFC — have lifted visitor numbers and put the city firmly on the map for tourism and events. The result is a strong, year-round mix of local regulars and visitor trade on the doorstep.

Premises Details:

A substantial multi-room venue set within a grand former banking hall — ornate plasterwork ceilings, original columns, chandeliers and marble floors give the site a presence that's rare on any high street. The space includes a large main trading floor with the "Servery" bar and a stage/AV wall, a dedicated games room (pool and darts), a separate gaming lounge, and a full commercial kitchen supporting all-day food. Behind the bar is a modern cellar with a python/smart dispense system. The venue benefits from a circa £250,000 refurbishment completed in 2023, including a £30,000 AV/entertainment system, and trades on a late licence (to 3am Fridays and Saturdays) with an 8am daily opening and established Breakfast Club. Approx. internal area 10,000 sq ft and capacity x250 — floor plan and full inventory available on request.

Business Operation

Management type:
This business is owner operated.
Expansion Potential:

The infrastructure is already in place, so the upside is in driving trade rather than further capital spend. Clear levers include: re-energising the all-day kitchen and Breakfast Club and adding themed food nights; building a ticketed events programme (live music, sport, comedy, quizzes) around the £30k AV system; fully monetising the rare 3am weekend licence; optimising gaming-machine income; and actively marketing the grand rooms for private and corporate hire. There is scope to grow the social following (currently c.6,000 Facebook followers) through targeted digital marketing, to add a loyalty/rewards scheme, and to partner with local businesses and Wrexham's growing tourism and sporting calendar.

Competition / Market:

Wrexham city centre has the usual mix of high-street pubs and bars, but few competitors match The Midland on scale, setting or breadth of offer. The combination of a landmark building, a large multi-room layout, a 3am weekend licence, all-day food from 8am, sport, gaming and live entertainment under one roof gives the site a genuinely differentiated position — it can serve breakfast trade, daytime food, sports crowds and late-night audiences from the same premises. As one of the larger venues in the centre, it is well placed to capture occasions that smaller operators cannot.

Reasons for selling:

Ansloos Leisure Ltd operates a buy, refurbish, prove and sell-on model across multiple hospitality sites. Following a change in the on-site operating arrangement, the directors have chosen to release this lease now and focus on the group's other venues rather than re-operate the site themselves. The business is therefore offered for a quick, clean completion, priced to reflect the speed of sale sought rather than the cost of the fit-out or the site's demonstrated trading potential. Up-to-date management accounts are available to qualified buyers under NDA.
