Lease A Pub In Gloucester – The Old Forge Inn Is Now Available !
The Old Forge Inn is a gorgeous, late 15th-century building situated on the edge of Whitminster Village. It’s a traditional country pub with a large car park for twenty vehicles, a spacious beer garden and picturesque views of the surrounding areas.
The garden oozes trading potential with lots of seating for guests to relax and enjoy in the summer and to nestle in the heated smoking area during winter and late summer evenings. The pub boasts tasty cask ales and cask marque accreditation lagers, ciders and ales on draught, wines, spirits, and soft drinks.
If you enjoy hosting events, this is the pub for you. Guests love the live music events, karaoke, parties on the patio and festivals. They also enjoy home-cooked traditional pub fayre and popular Sunday lunches.
The Old Forge Inn is also the pub for you if you love sports, as Sky and BT sports are a fantastic addition to the offer. New bespoke signage has also given The Old Forge Inn a prominent roadside presence.
You’ll be taking the reins of a spacious bar with two trading areas: the main bar feels traditional, warm, and cosy with screens showing sports games. You’ll also discover a separate 24-capacity seater restaurant away from the bar area for a quieter dining experience or function. The savvy operator will take advantage of the spacious beer garden.
The stated ingoing figures are correct at point of advertising. Please be aware there may be additional costs.
