Let A Pub In Exeter – Run The Green Gables !
The Green Gables is situated on Buddles Lane in Exeter and is located in a prominent position, with the pub playing a huge part of the local community. Exeter is a small city and is one of the most vibrant, attractive and historically interesting cities in England. Exeter has a real sense of individuality, its varied cultural scene is embraced by proud locals, and the diverse mix of eateries means it’s renowned as one of the foodie capitals of the South West with plenty of opportunities for adventure. This is the perfect place to try a new activity, or simply relax and enjoy the stunning scenery. It’s located within one mile of the cathedral, the Royal Albert memorial and the town centre with the train station also just under one mile away on foot.
Pub Layout
The Green Gables was commissioned by the City Brewery to serve the Broad Meadow Estate and as a pub, dates back to around 1923. The pub has a beer garden on three sides all of which are laid to lawn. The front area is also partially laid to patio and is a great sun trap for customers. On entering the pub there is a seating area with a mixture of fixed and loose seating and also one main bar servery. To the right of the bar, there is a games room that holds the pool table and gaming machine. To the rear left of the pub there is a snug room with its own independent access from the main bar and a serving hatch that is in the middle of the main back bar. This snug area can be used for darts matches and can also be separated from the main bar area and can cater for gatherings or functions. The Green Gables also benefits from being on a suburban road with plenty of on-street parking, surrounded by many chimney pots and within easy walking distance.
The stated ingoing figures are correct at point of advertising. Please be aware there may be additional costs.
Having very recently been completely refurbished internally and externally, the Green Gables is a proper local’s local, where everyone is on first name terms and the team know what most of the regulars drink without having to be told. The perfect place for an after work pint whilst still in work boots before heading home for the evening. This pub oozes “traditional pub” at it’s very core. A wet only site that prides itself on a great pint of cask ale, a small yet successful range of draught and bottled beers as well as some spirits. Games, dominoes, darts and even the odd Euchre keep this locals community pub thriving.

The Green Gables, Exeter
This is a really exciting opportunity and Admiral Taverns are looking for a new licensee who not only has the passion and drive to run a community pub, but who also has experience at re-launching a new trading offer and delivering a shared vision. Externally the garden is under utilised and with some benches, brollies and regular upkeep the outside areas could be used all year round. There is also the room to develop an outside offer here such as a small outdoor BBQ or year round pizza oven.
