Property details
The Bechers Brook is a popular community pub in the village of Cantley, approximately 3 miles from Doncaster city centre. The pub is ideally located in the centre of a large residential area and stands on a corner plot alongside the playing fields of Cantlye Park. The population tops 13,000 people across all age ranges within one mile of the pub. The city of Doncaster is increasingly popular with an abundance of shops, a Frenchgate shopping centre, a leisure centre, retail parks and a large train and bus station.

Trading style
The pub currently is wet-led trading only, with an opportunity for someone to introduce potential back bar food snacks. The local community provides a strong established day-to-day trade, with the opportunity to grow the business further with the introduction of entertainment, live sports, and community-based events throughout the week. The layout of the pub and the location of the playing fields would support the introduction of pub sports teams, and the rear room can be utilised as a private function room to provide additional revenue to the business.
The landlords are looking for an operator that can maximize the potential here and potentially introduce a good food offer as well as drive the wet business to the next level. The site is currently for sale so the deal available will reflect this.
This is a great opportunity for a hands-on experienced all-round operator, comfortable in offering a real community entertainment-led offer to attract residents. The landlords are looking to work with an individual/couple with local knowledge who are willing to embed themselves into the community and who can put their ideas into the business to deliver outstanding results. You must be competent and confident in marketing outside the pub, along with utilising the many social media platforms to attract customers from outside the area.
