The Friendly Inn is located on the busy Ovenden Road approximately one mile from Halifax town centre, a prominent roadside location with plenty of passing traffic. The pub is also surrounded by densely populated residential areas, giving a strong local community trade. The pub is a traditional stone building, with the additional benefit of a small car park to the rear. The local demographic is mainly the 25-55 age group, with a population of approximately 25,000 living within a mile of the pub.
Pub Layout
The main front door leads into the open-plan ground floor bar area with a single bar servery and seating area to the right, and separate games area to the rear containing a pool table and TV. To the left of the bar area is a raised seating area with open fire, along with a TV and an entertainment area featuring a DJ booth and dancefloor with lighting rig. The bar is well stocked with a range of popular brands, and to front of the bar are two gaming machines that are popular with locals. The ladies and gents toilets are located to the left of the pub. To the rear of the bar area there are stairs leading up to a separate first-floor function room with its own small bar, raised stage area and darts oche. This room can comfortably accommodate up to 50 people and benefits from having its own toilets. Externally to the rear there is a car park for up to six cars and a small covered smoking shelter, along with a small outdoor seating area. To the front of the building is a small cobbled area which could be carefully levelled to provide additional outdoor seating.
The private accommodation is located on the ground floor, adjacent to the left side of the pub, with the benefit of its own entrance to save having to walk through the pub. It is a good sized layout containing two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and lounge.

Admiral Taverns have some great investment plans for the Friendly Inn, and as a result I am looking for an individual/couple with drive and motivation to create a great locals pub. Some local knowledge would be useful, and someone who is willing to embed themselves into the community and continue to deliver outstanding results. You must be competent and confident in marketing outside the pub along with utilising the many social media platforms.
