THE BUSINESS
The Horse & Anchor has been owned by the same family since 1990 and taken over by our clients in 2008, who have continued to run it successfully. The pub has built up an excellent name locally and within the surrounding areas as a well-established/operated business. Regarded very much as a community pub it is supported well and is run very much to suit the owners, with the assistance of 2 regular members of staff and casual staff when needed.
Whilst the business is strong the pub certainly offers scope to do more, especially with the introduction of pool, darts and snooker teams, along with live music, which the current owners have never really pushed, along with more small functions in the lounge.
Having had a full refurbishment c.2012, very little, if any capex is required with the business suiting a first-time buyer, family operator or as part of a multiple operator portfolio, looking to get into a well-supported trading location.
Opening hours: Mon-Thurs 12 to 10pm, Fri-Sat 12 to 12 and Sun 12.30 to 10pm.
The business is free of tie, with a barrellage of c. 143.

Internally the property is in very good condition and presented to a high standard throughout with a new boiler put in c. 2023.
