Run a Stonegate Pub - Coach & Horses Derby, Derbyshire

About the Pub

An award winning traditional public house, of much renown, located in "Chester Green" on the edge of Derby City Centre with close proximity to the Railway Station, Westfield Shopping centre and Pride Park. Famed for quality, the Coach & Horses has been a regular in the 'Good Beer Guide', and a consistent Cask Marque award holder. The pub has a good 100% Wet Sales record but has significant food sales potential via a trade kitchen. The entrance leads into a traditional bar with loose tables and chairs and perimeter seating for approximately 35 covers. The central bar servery has a panelled counter with real ale handpumps and a cast iron foot rail. In addition, there is a lounge and games area with a pool table and darts throw, fixed and loose seating for 20 covers. The pub is in good order throughout. There is a good size catering kitchen, although not currently used it provides huge potential for the new publican to exploit the demand for a food offer. This imposing, traditional building has recently benefitted from an external redecoration. To the side is a secure and well-lit car park with space for up to 10 vehicles. At the back of the car park is a decked area with benched seating for up to 26 customers. Stonegate Pub Partners are now seeking an experienced and enthusiastic publican who can exploit the food potential, deliver excellent customer service and be able to develop the Cask Ale offer.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The Coach & Horses provides a unique and rare opportunity. This property has not been on the market for over five years and as such has a strong reputation for quality and consistency. The business requires an experienced and enthusiastic publican who can exploit the food potential, deliver excellent customer service with a focussed marketing strategy, entertainment and further develop the strong reputation for quality cask ales. There is also a strong demand for office parties and live music for which the property lends itself.
