Run a Stonegate Pub - Egerton Arms Chester, Cheshire

About the Pub

The Egerton is an attractive, large roadside pub on the outskirts of Chester. Set in a rural location between Saughall and Blacon, the clientele is made up of locals of all age groups who visit to enjoy the social aspect of this community pub. It plays host to a number of darts, pool and football teams with live sports attracting additional frequent custom. This is a strong wet led business which caters for live music as well as the potential to be developed to offer a simple pub menu to drive additional revenue. Stonegate Pub Partners are now looking for a new publican who has the enthusiasm to be very involved with activities and events, attracting new customers to the pub as well as putting the Egerton at the heart of the community.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

This pub is very much a social hub, with locals of all ages visiting to enjoy the social aspects of traditional pub games and live music. There is a strong wet-led trade and a great deal of opportunity to complement this with the introduction of a simple food offer. I am looking for someone who can be very involved with activities and events, attracting new customers as well as putting the Egerton at the heart of the community.

Surrounding Area

The Egerton Arms is located on the road between Blacon and Saughall, some three miles from Chester city centre. Saughall is an affluent village in Cheshire, which is only half a mile from the Welsh border and four miles to Deeside industrial park, with a ward population of around 4,000. Blacon was a small farming community until major building work began in the early 1950s, and until 2007 consisted of two Chester City Council wards with a combined population of around 14,000 residents. The number 15 bus service to Chester stops outside the pub, and it is only a fifteen-minute drive to Shotton railway station, which links the area to the Wirral and Wrexham and provides regular rail services to Holyhead along the north Wales coast.
