Description

Located in a residential area of Hatfield, the Cavendish Arms is popular with both local residents and students of the area. This traditional community pub benefits from a trade kitchen, good sized beer garden and family friendly play area. There is parking to the front of the Pub with space for up to 8 cars. Key Features • The 50 cover open plan trade area pivots around one main u-shaped bar, around which are free-standing bar stools. • As you walk around the trade area there are dart boards and TVs positioned on the walls. The furniture is a mix of low and high tables and chairs, as well as bay seating around the perimeter at the far end of the room. Live music events are held on a regular basis, supported by speakers fitted around the trade area. • Whilst there is a trade kitchen, some investment in equipment would be needed to ensure all is in good working order and capable of supporting a pub menu. Business & Financial Information • Estimated ingoings (upfront): £8,250 • Full deposit: £8,250 • Guide rent (weekly): £635 • Guide rent (annual): £33,000 • Forecast turnover (weekly): £356,968 • Forecast turnover (annual): £356,968 Ideal Operator This Pub would suit an experienced and community-minded Publican or Publican partnership with a proven history of sales growth and business success. Located in a residential area, there is scope to attract regular custom through family-friendly events and activities, a good and consistent food offering, pool, darts and local sports clubs, promotions for local students and a great beer garden for the warmer months. Private Accommodation The 1st floor accommodation is in good condition and consists of 3 bedrooms, a large lounge and fitted kitchen. Regional Manager's Thoughts The current customer base is a mix of local residents and students from the local University. Whilst the pub has a trade kitchen there is scope for this area of the business to be developed and would expect the new publican to refine this aspect of the operation. The property will benefit from a much needed investment in March/ April 2026 to enhance the look and feel of the trade area and customer toilets. Taking into account the current level of trade, it provides a great base for an experienced operator with a track record of running a similar operation. Surrounding Area The pub is located in a residential area and close to the popular Galleria shopping centre along with a number of retail units including the Co-op which encourages passing trade. Also around the corner is Roe Hill Park and Roe Hill Hall. Following Bishops Rise southbound leads to the University of Hertfordshire; northbound leads to the A1(M) and the wider motorway network. Good public commuter links are provided by bus and rail.
