Trading Details
Current Business
The Cross Keys is currently run as a town centre venue, with Sky TV, entertainment at weekends and a traditional pub food offer at lunchtimes. We believe that current annual net turnover is in the region of £310,000. Please note that this is an estimated figure for guidance only.
Trading / Development Potential
There is clear scope to develop this business further using all three income streams. This could include making more of cask beer and wine, marketing an appropriate food offer after analysing competitor activity and proactively selling the bedrooms.
Applicants
As this is a complicated business with three distinct income streams, food, wet and rooms, it is crucial that the new operators have commercial acumen and have already successfully managed similar businesses. Equally important are the skills to build sales and profits.
Property
The property is in a general good state of repair. It is an imposing black and white timber framed building with leaded windows and is by a long way the most impressive looking pub in the town.
Service Areas
Well equipped kitchen and associated storage areas, a cellar, gents and ladies toilets and an open barn which is currently just used for storage.
Trading Areas
A typical coaching inn, the Cross Keys is a long, narrow building. There is one bar serving all the trading areas, a large feature fireplace and an area set aside for pub games. There are six letting bedrooms and a small beer garden at the rear.
Domestic Accommodation
There are three double rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom in the private accommodation, all in a good state of general repair.
