Pub Tenancies In Southampton – The Windsor Castle Is Available
The Windsor Castle is a large building situated on a corner plot and faces on to Shirley high street within a small precinct of shops and next to a large Sainsbury store attracting significant customers throughout trading hours. There is a wealth of small businesses, residential shops and facilities in the immediate vicinity that attract people to the area from much further afield. Shirley is one of the largest areas in Southampton with a dense residential population of around 14,000. The local market runs weekly on a Thursday, directly outside the Windsor Castle again offering another weekly event in the area attracting footfall from all over Southampton. The site also benefits from a street license to the front of the property which provides a great area for customers to enjoy the busy street ambiance.
Pub Layout
The pub is open plan with a horse shoe style bar surrounding a large bar area. There is a raised area on the right of the bar that is a great location for the live music and entertainment. On the left of the bar is a community area with a pool table and darts board. There is an enclosed courtyard to the rear of the pub that is easily accessible from the pub. There is a small kitchen located directly behind the bar servery that is capable of delivering a varied pub menu due to the proximity to the bar this could be managed by bar staff.
Private Accommodation
The private accommodation is located on the first floor and accessed independently from the trading areas from the pub. This consists of four bedrooms, lounge, kitchen and bathroom which are all in good order.

I am looking for a passionate and focused licensee to build on the existing business and further develop the wet and dry income streams. You will need to develop the entertainment programme to maximise the trade and with the pub benefitting from a catering kitchen directly to the rear of the bar servery, there is a significant opportunity to launch and grow a good quality pub grub food offer.
