Refurbishment in Blackpool’s iconic South Shore.

The Bridge offers a great opportunity for someone who wants to take on a well-backed, newly refurbished pub with plenty of potential.

What would you do with this pub to make it even more of a success?

The Area:

The Bridge is located in Blackpool’s South Shore, close to the promenade and Blackpool Football Club. It’s surrounded by a suburban mix of private and council housing, with hundreds of nearby small hotels and B&Bs. This part of Blackpool is one of the North West’s most popular tourist destinations, with major attractions including Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Blackpool Tower, the Sandcastle water park and the Illuminations. The pub is one of 17 other licensed premises in an area with around 4,995 adults.

The Offer:

The Bridge is available on our investment tenancy agreement. Click here for more information on this agreement.  

The refurbishment will put the pub front-and-centre of the numerous small local businesses and set the stage for a new licensee to run the best community pub in town. Opening up the kitchen for food will also make up a small proportion of the pub’s total sales.

We’re always open to new ideas, what would you do to drive trade?
