The Gunmakers is a traditional, wet-led community pub situated in a prime residential location on the edge of Bantock Park. Surrounded by established housing and benefiting from strong local support, the pub has become a valued part of the neighbourhood and a regular meeting place for residents, families, sports fans and community groups.
The pub currently trades from two distinct customer areas, providing a range of experiences for different occasions. The main bar offers a traditional community pub feel with a welcoming atmosphere, making it the hub of day-to-day trade and socialising. The separate lounge provides a more relaxed setting, ideal for families, casual dining, community gatherings and entertainment events.
Supporting the operation is a small commercial kitchen, capable of delivering a simple, quality food offer that complements the wet-led business. To the rear, the pub benefits from its own customer car park, providing easy access for local customers and visitors alike.
As part of Marston's investment into the exciting Grandstand format, The Gunmakers is set to evolve into a destination known for live sport, entertainment and community engagement. The layout naturally lends itself to this vision, with opportunities to create dedicated viewing experiences, host local sports teams, organise regular entertainment and strengthen its position as the social hub of the area.
With weekly sales of approximately £6,500, a loyal customer base and a fantastic location close to both residential communities and Bantock Park, The Gunmakers offers an excellent opportunity for an ambitious operator to build on strong foundations and unlock the pub's full potential as the community's favourite local.
