More Information

Recently Refurbished Local

The Thorn Tree is a recently refurbished community pub located in Ossett, Wakefield. Located close to the town centre, it is surrounded by residential housing, posing a great opportunity for local trade. The site also benefits from being close to a sports club and the end of a cycle track.

The outlet currently operates as a traditionally drinks led pub and is famous for sports and supports various sports teams. With limited competition in the area, there is an opportunity to develop a mainstream food offer, alongside cask ale and premium coffee. A consistent calendar of events would also be key to driving trade.
