Pubs To Lease In Southampton – Run The Kingsland Tavern
The Kingsland Tavern is one of Southampton’s older pubs, having been a pub since the 1820’s. The pub occupies a good sized corner plot, looking out over both St Marys Street and Kingsland Square. Having the fortune of being located in a densely populated area of Southampton, the Kingsland is just a five minute walk from the city centre and under 10 minutes from St Marys Stadium, home of Southampton FC. It is surrounded by retail outlets on St Marys Street and is situated opposite the Kingsland housing estate, near to Palmerston Park.
Pub Layout
The pub is a prominent, two storey property with it’s frontage and entrance being on St Marys Street and the side elevation being on Kingsland Square. Externally, there is a large marquee adjoining the left hand side pub, which is actually sited on the square itself and is accessed through the side door of the trade area. This acts as an advantageous overspill area, particularly on football match days and also provides a covered smoking area for the customers.
The trade area is dominated by a large horseshoe shaped bar servery which you are presented with upon entry. To the left of the bar is the access to the marquee and also low level loose seating and a darts area. To the right of the bar, you will find fixed seating along the front window and further along is the popular pool table. There are several flat screen TVs and games machines throughout.
Private Accommodation
On the first floor is the private accommodation consisting of four bedrooms, a living room, bathroom and kitchen.

Admiral are seeking a licensee who will drive the wet sales and introduce a back bar food offer. An ambition to improve the drinks offer and overall retail standards as well as customer service and communications is highly desirable at this site. We require an experienced, community focussed operator who is ideally from the local area, who will engage with the locals, introduce sports teams to the pub and ensure that the Kingsland Tavern becomes the community hub of St Marys.
