Be the Best High Street Local
The Phoenix, which is due to get a massive renovation to the value of £246k, is located in the centre of Exmouth, with 15,000 adults within one mile of the pub. Exmouth has a growing population of professionals and is a commuter hub for Exeter. The town has recently benefited from significant investment, making this the perfect place for a new, quality High Street pub, with a stand-out offer.
The pub will be completely overhauled inside and out. Outside, a new signage and lighting scheme will be accompanied by a fresh facelift, while an appealing courtyard will be created at the rear of the pub. Inside, all trading areas will be redecorated, from floor to ceiling. Stylish lights and furniture will appeal to diners and drinkers alike. A fresh, quality menu of pub grub will suit this style of venue. As our ambition is to make the Phoenix into the 'Best High Street Local', a number of 'reasons to visit' should feature on a future business plan, such as live sport, music, quizzes and ongoing promotions.
