Could you run this pub?
The Stone Beck is a community pub, that offers a good selection of drinks. The pub sits in a retail park just on the outskirts of the spa town of Harrogate, which is just half a mile from the town centre in Jennyfield. It’s a small but busy spot, nearby a local supermarket, so the pub benefits from a lot of passing trade, so there is real opportunity to provide an offer which appeals to this audience as well as established customers.
The pub offers some great trading space including a spacious function room which can be used as a totally self-sufficient area with its own bar. As the community’s local pub, this is a great facility for all the local parties, meetings and private get togethers.
Business facilities
The pub offers some excellent trading space, with two main trading areas including a spacious public bar and the large function room, both with their own entrances which are serviced by their own bars making them totally independent of each other. The public bar has an open plan layout with a pool table at the front of the pub, a good sized bar and bar space, popular with the locals making use of the bar stools or enjoy standing and chatting and some seating for customers to relax with WIFI throughout.
The Function Room is a little more formal and is very popular for private functions and parties. Outside, there is also a good-sized drinking area at the rear, which is extremely popular during warmer weather as it has an outside bar and small stage area for events.
ccommodation
The private accommodation will include three bedrooms, a private kitchen and lounge.
About the local area
