Village Pub Restaurant in County Durham For Sale in St Johns Chapel- Business 4 Sale .co.uk

Business Summary

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular village public house, which was established in 1750 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 2006. The business is only now being placed on the market due to ill health. The business is run at a pace to suit our client and generates a turnover of £53,000 per annum with a gross profit of 35%. The pub is very much at the heart of the community hosting 2 football teams, a ladies darts team, pool team and there is a motorcycle club that meets at The Golden Lion each week. The pub offers a variety of beers and ales along with home cooked meals and is especially busy on Friday nights due to their famous fish and chips to takeaway or eat in. There is scope for a new owner to increase turnover by extending the opening hours and by marketing function facilities. This is an ideal lifestyle change opportunity for anyone looking for a public house in such a delightful rural area. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
