About the Pub
The Vivary Arms is a very quaint, historic listed building set in the very attractive suburb of Vivary Park. With a large, central, bar servery; the trading area spans across three distinct areas whilst all visible from the central point. Through the entrance into the bar, you are greeted with an ornate wooden bar servery and a mixture of loose seating and natural wooden tables for around 20 covers. A rustic timber opening separates the games area complete with pool table and dart board. This section features original brick floor and a large inglenook fireplace. The dining area is split level accommodating 40 plus covers, with a stone fireplace and button draylon upholstered fixed seating, dining tables and chairs. The fully fitted trade kitchen is of a good size for the pub, with a good range of stainless-steel commercial equipment and direct access to the dining area. The beautifully decorated frontage that comprises hanging baskets and pot plants are pretty additions that certainly make the pub stand out when passing. To the rear, an enclosed beer garden with incorporated smoking solution contains wooden benches, with a central palm tree and greenery around the perimeter. There is scope to develop a small increase in covers utilising the outdoor areas during the warm summer months. Following some water damage, we are in the final stages of preparing this business to reopen. If you like a blank canvass, have a passion for food and enjoy hosting then this could be the opportunity for you.

Regional Manager's Thoughts
We are looking for an enigmatic host to reopen this splendid business following its recent water leak issues. The ideal publican for this business would possess a keen culinary interest and revel in sharing their industry knowledge with guests; from small beer talk to the latest gastronomic trends. Experience in the hospitality sector really is an advantage but a passion for people is a great starting point.
