About the Pub

Recently refurbished local community pub situated in a private housing estate on the outskirts of Kenilworth town centre. The site is situated in a mid-market demographic, it is a popular venue during the week and weekends and has a large target customer base that uses it for social drinking and casual dining.

The Gauntlet has a large open-plan trading area with a central bar with two service areas for each side of the room. The trading area is zoned on either side of the central bar, creating a space for casual drinking on one side and an area designated for eating on the other. The front of the pub has a terraced trading area for drinking and alfresco eating. Earlier this year a pergola was built on the terraced with fixed seating to extend the outside trading area and the shelter allows for this space to be used all year around.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The Gauntlet is a fantastic opportunity for a retailer with a passion and enthusiasm to integrate themselves into the local community of Kenilworth. This well-established public house is in very good condition throughout, surrounded by residential houses and with a good mix of regular customs. The Gauntlet is an excellent and exciting opportunity, although current business is good there is huge potential to develop trade further with an enthusiastic and hardworking publican.
