Exciting News! The Stumble Inn is set for a refurbishment that will enhance both its interior and exterior. Soon to be renamed The Royalty, it aims to create a warm and inviting atmosphere for both locals and the student community.

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

The area

A complete refurbishment is planned for The Stumble Inn, located right on the Sunderland University campus and close to the city centre. With a fresh, clean look both inside and out, including a return to its original name, The Royalty, this pub is set to become a welcoming spot for both the local community and students. The refurbishment will enhance the cosy atmosphere and add features like sports and live entertainment to attract regulars and new faces alike.

With 8,000 adults within a 10-minute walk and another 24,000 within 20 minutes, there’s a strong potential customer base nearby. The pub is ideally situated - close to student halls, a metro stop, and The Royalty Theatre. The city centre competition is distant enough to allow this pub to stand out, particularly with its new appeal to both locals and students. A licensee with local knowledge, ideally with experience managing student-friendly venues, would be well-suited to take advantage of this opportunity.
