Anchor Inn
RUN THE ANCHOR INN, HURLEY COMMON, ATHERSTONE
Tenancy Agreement
Overview
The Anchor Inn is a traditional village pub located in the rural hamlet of Hurley Common, North Warwickshire. Situated on the main road through the village and within easy reach of Tamworth, Atherstone and Junction 10 of the M42, the pub enjoys a prominent trading position and benefits from both local trade and visitors travelling through the area. Combining countryside charm with excellent transport links, this is a fantastic opportunity to run a pub with strong community appeal and significant growth potential.
The Business
The Anchor Inn offers a welcoming and versatile trading environment, with three distinct trading areas including a bar, lounge and dining space, alongside a separate games room featuring a pool table.
Outside, the pub benefits from a beer garden, secure children's play area and parking for approximately 20 vehicles, making it well positioned to attract families, local residents and passing trade alike.
Currently trading at approximately £3,000 per week, the business has an established wet trade and previously supported a food offer generating around 30 food covers. The current operator is not actively offering a food service, presenting a significant opportunity for a new operator to reintroduce and grow a food proposition alongside the pub's established wet trade.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting pub tenancy opportunity to take control of an established business and shape its future. The biggest opportunity lies in relaunching the food offer, increasing frequency of visit and creating a strong seven-day trading proposition that appeals to both local residents and visitors to the area.
With the freedom to develop your own menus, respond to local demand and build on the pub's existing strengths, the Anchor Inn offers genuine scope for an ambitious operator to grow both food and drink sales. The combination of flexible trading spaces, family-friendly outdoor facilities and a loyal local catchment provides strong foundations for future success.
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for an ambitious and commercially minded operator who is ready to take ownership of their own pub business. This opportunity would suit aspiring first-time publicans as well as experienced tenants seeking their next challenge.
The successful tenant will have the drive to rebuild the food offer, create a welcoming environment for guests and maximise the pub's trading potential. Strong hospitality standards, local engagement and the confidence to develop the business as their own will be key to success.
