Albany Hotel
RUN THE ALBANY HOTEL, CARDIFF
Your Local Partnership Opportunity
Overview: The Albany Hotel is a well-established community pub in the heart of Roath, one of Cardiff's busiest and most vibrant suburbs. Located just off Albany Road, the pub is known for its strong live sport offer, welcoming community atmosphere and large outdoor trading space. It attracts local residents, professionals and a substantial student population, with Cardiff city centre less than 10 minutes away. Generating around £8,000 in weekly sales, this is a clear opportunity for the right operator to build on a solid wet-led business with significant growth potential.
The business: The pub offers spacious internal trading areas that create a traditional community pub atmosphere, alongside a large enclosed beer garden complete with outdoor TVs and its own bar. As a 100% wet-led operation, the business benefits from a loyal local following, strong sports trade and excellent opportunities for seasonal outdoor trading. Key strengths include its thriving community position, exceptional live sport credentials and standout beer garden facilities.
The opportunity: The next operator can establish The Albany as Roath's go-to venue for sport, entertainment and social occasions. The strongest growth priorities are developing a compelling entertainment calendar, increasing engagement with the local student population and maximising the potential of the outdoor trading space throughout the year.
Who we're looking for: We're looking for an experienced operator, couple or team with a passion for creating vibrant pub experiences and driving community engagement. You'll have strong commercial awareness, experience in wet-led operations and the confidence to deliver excellent sporting events, live entertainment and promotions that keep guests returning week after week.
What's in it for you? 20% share of weekly wet sales excluding VAT, and keep 100% of any food sales. Low ingoing costs start with a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost. Separate owner’s accommodation is included, with most bills covered except council tax and TV Licence.
