Job Location
Taunton, United Kingdom
Job Description
Pub Overview
A fabulous refurbishment will transform The Moat House into a premium drink-led, town centre pub that is full of style. Inside, the pub will be redecorated throughout the whole ground floor. Other upgrades throughout the pub such as a full refurbishment of the first floor as well as the male & female toilets. This will encourage greater sales and give the pub a completely new look and feel.
Outside, we will be upgrading the pub with a redecoration and beautiful new signage that will appeal to a wider range of consumers with its new look and feel.
In the heart of the town
The Moat House is in the heart of Taunton town centre, just off Castle Way Square. This is a hot spot for hospitality venues. There is ample space and a perfect spot for customers during the summer months. Many people work in the city and flock to the city for nights out. Being in the town, there are several nearby venues, however, the vision for the Moat House sits in a prominent position and also benefits from being located close to a circuit of great pubs that already bring in a great trade to the area.
Potential
The pub already has an established trade. We believe that this refurbishment will set Moat House above the local competition with it stylish décor. With 85 covers, a late license and great promotions and music, it’ll be the bar of choice. The look and feel are different from anything in the immediate vicinity and the range of cocktails and craft beers will also make a great point of difference in the immediate vicinity.
If you’ve benefited from running or owning a pub business, we’d love to hear what experience you can bring.
The right operator for the The Moat House will have extensive experience in high street hospitality businesses. They will have a clear vision for their drinks menu, entertainment offer and marketing strategy and can create a memorable experience for their customers.
If this sounds like the incredible pub opportunity you’ve been waiting for, apply today and tell us what you can bring to this pubs next chapter...
