Property details
The Nelson Tavern is a large food-led pub sat in the heart of the Mudeford area of Christchurch. Mudeford is a former fishing village at the mouth of Christchurch Harbour with an expanding population. The pub sits on the main Mudeford Road overlooking the river Mude in a well-populated residential area that also benefits hugely from tourism in the summer months.
The pub has one large main bar area with servery which can accommodate fifty-plus covers. The bar then leads through to the restaurant area which will seat up to circa one hundred diners. This area benefits from a glazed frontage that overlooks the courtyard garden area. The fully equipped commercial kitchen is located centrally between the bar and restaurant area. There are also two walk-in fridges and a walk-in freezer that complement this large food-led operation.
The Nelson Tavern also benefits from a large garden, that is South facing and is well-known and well-loved as a popular sun trap in the summer months. A small car park to the right-hand side of the property will fit approximately fifteen cars.
The private accommodation consists of three large bedrooms, a kitchen, office, as well as a good-sized lounge and bathroom.

Experienced Operator
Trading style
The Nelson currently trades well as both a wet and dry pub. For the last fifteen years, it has developed a very strong reputation locally (and further afield) for being good quality, consistent food pub. It is also well known for its Sunday lunches and traditional pub meals. In support of the food offer, the Nelson Tavern also offers a wide range of drinks including premium lagers, cask ale, craft beers, and fine wines.
The landlords are looking for an experienced operator with a very strong food background, the ability to drive and market a multifaceted business, and the forward vision and determination to try new and exciting things to continue the Nelson Tavern on its journey. There is still room to develop the wet trade, push the ever-growing craze of craft beers and cask, as well as to organise local beer festivals and other events in the garden.
