Run a Stonegate Pub - Dolphin Inn Winchester, Hampshire

About the Pub

The Dolphin is a delightful country pub situated on the main road in Hursley, Hampshire. The pub boasts a cosy public bar area with a large L-shaped bar, two open fireplaces and plenty of seating. There is a dining area with a further 45 covers, serving a varied high-quality food menu. There is a good-sized beer garden to the rear with a part patio, part grassed area with outdoor seating. There are two large letting rooms available and there is a converted dry storage space which has been transformed into a takeaway coffee shed, a great opportunity to drive additional revenue. Stonegate Pub Partners are now seeking an experienced food led operator who understands the clientele and the local area to help develop this business further. The new publican will need to market the pub effectively to capture the trade from the local area and surroundings.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The Dolphin Inn is a multi-site destination food pub which offers an experienced operator a fantastic business. I am looking for a publican with food experience who has an understanding of the market and how to articulate the market to capture trade from the local area.

Surrounding Area

The Dolphin is situated in a prominent position on the A3090 in the classic, quintessential English village of Hursley, halfway towards Romsey and Winchester. There are local amenities nearby including a primary school, cricket pitch, a butcher and two neighboring pubs. Within a mile of the pub is an IBM office which in the past as brought lots of lunchtime trade to the pub. There is a great road network with the M3 just two miles away and within five miles is the Winchester main line taking you directly to Waterloo station.
