There is no catered/licensed function area of this size in the town
Food - Pub staples on offer (steak/parma) as well as interesting specials for our foodie clientele.
Would operate very well as a gastro pub as food is really important to the business, the quality drastically effects takings/sales.
Starting to attract Car Clubs
No website and hardly any signage so big potential here
Located in the quieter end of Main Street which results in ample parking which is a problem at the other end.
Customers like the 'traditional pub' feel and like that there are no pokies.
