The Coach and Horses is a beloved, community-focused pub nestled within a residential estate just outside Norwich’s vibrant town centre. Serving a diverse and loyal local crowd—including residents from nearby high-rise flats and social housing—the pub is known for its warm, down-to-earth atmosphere and commitment to offering quality experiences at accessible prices. Norwich itself, often hailed as the most complete medieval city in the UK, boasts over 900 years of history, rich literary heritage, and striking natural beauty. Its charming cobbled streets and historic architecture make it a standout destination, easily reached by car, train, or coach thanks to excellent transport links. Whether you’re a local regular or a curious visitor, The Coach and Horses offers an inviting space where community spirit thrives.
Pub Layout
Upon entering, guests are greeted by a spacious, single long bar—soon to be enhanced with a sleek new back bar and modern bottle fridges, elevating both style and service. To the left, a lively pool area provides a fun and energetic vibe, while to the right, a dedicated darts area leads into additional comfortable seating, ensuring there’s a perfect spot for everyone. No matter where you are, sports fans can enjoy prime views of the action on strategically placed screens throughout the pub. Outside, the front of the venue features welcoming customer seating alongside convenient parking, making it easy for guests to enjoy their visit. To the right, a charming, enclosed leafy courtyard will soon be partially laid with astro turf, creating a relaxed, inviting space to unwind with friends. There’s also a small, currently unused trade kitchen with fantastic potential. With the right investment in modern equipment, this space could easily be transformed to offer a simple food menu, further enhancing the pub’s appeal and offering an additional revenue stream.
The private accommodation is substantially sized with four double bedrooms, kitchen, lounge and bathroom. It has been recently re-carpeted and decorated so is in great condition for the new licensee(s) to move in.

With the right licensee, we plan to fully refurbish both the interior and exterior of the Coach and Horses, re-launching it with a fresh new look and feel that resonates with the local community. This charming pub has fantastic potential for a community focused operator ideally someone with experience running a similar, welcoming venue. The low operating costs, thanks to a very low rateable value, make this a commercially attractive opportunity. Excellent deals on Sky and TNT further enhance its appeal, helping to support a strong and profitable business model. The pub also enjoys a healthy stream of gaming income, which we believe can be maintained and potentially grown with the right approach.
