Regional Manager's Thoughts

This is a fantastic opportunity for a publican to potentially take a first step into a tenancy. An owner/operator (single or couple) who want to forge links with the local community and create a hub and a centre for locals to meet and have fun.

Surrounding Area

Croydon is a vibrant and diverse area of South London, currently undergoing plenty of regeneration in both residential areas and the main shopping centre. The Box Park is less than 2 miles away. The pub is one mile from West Croydon Station and a 10-minute walk from Croydon University Hospital, both of which can support the trade here, although the majority of the business will be walk-to trade from the local residents.
