Overview

If you are interested in running your own pub business, the Hare & Hounds in Greenford is available now.

The Hare & Hounds is close to local amenities just 2 mins from the high street. It is also situated on a busy main road attracting passing trade. The pub has a core base of local drinkers including families and couples and already has great satisfaction scores due to it's fantastic reputations amongst the local community. There is an opportunity to introduce your own food with a trade kitchen and separate bar area which is a great space for events and functions (another avenue to capitalize on).

It also has a huge beer garden (the only one in the local area so a huge advantage for extra sales especially when the sun is shining! It has Sky and TNT sports so will be poplar throughout the Euros. 
 
We are looking for an experienced community operator that has experience or interest in all things sport along with local knowledge to ensure the Hare & Hounds is taken to the next level. 

The site currently takes on average £12000 per week on 100% wet sales but has the potential to achieve higher a week by targeting extra drinks sales and introducing a food offer.
