Run a Stonegate Pub - Greyhound Jarrow, Tyne and Wear

About the Pub

The Greyhound is a large traditional community pub located in the Hedworth area of Jarrow circa six miles south west of central South Shields. The pub offers a bar with a separate games area for pool and darts, a lounge area and separate function room which are all decorated in a traditional style. The pub does not currently offer food but has a small but adequate catering kitchen with all the equipment necessary to support the type of food offer that is thought likely to be successful. Externally, the pub has a large car park to the front and a large enclosed grassed beer garden to the rear, which can also be accessed from the bar and function room. The pub has a big screen, to showcase football and sporting events and also plays host to pool and darts teams and has a popular quiz night.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The Greyhound offers a fantastic opportunity to the right publican. This is an excellent pub which needs a genial host/hostess to develop the existing offer and explore other profit opportunities. The Greyhound would suit an operator with some pub experience and catering skills, although practical training can be given to fill any gaps. It is a traditional community pub and the newly appointed publican will need to get involved with the sports teams and the local community in order to take this pub to the next level. The development of an appropriate food offer, the separate function room and the excellent beer garden, all add to the potential for developing this business in the longer term.
