About the Pub

The Yellow Lion is a superb property located in the affluent suburb of Aston, two minutes away from junction 30 of the M1 motorway. This pub boasts a dedicated dining area with a fully equipped kitchen, a function room and a beautiful beer garden with a children’s play area, which is a great attraction for families. It is renowned for its traditional home cooked food as well as its fantastic selection of real ales.

The internal trading area is very tidy and well kept throughout, with quality fixed and loose seating. The open plan layout has a split level, offering over 80 covers in total and is catered for by a central servery. To the left of the main bar is a lounge/dining area with a pleasant conservatory to the right. The conservatory can be used for functions, as well as the separate function room on the first floor which can accommodate 20 people. A quaint snug provides seating for a further 10 people and is fitted with a real open fire which creates a welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen is compact but fully equipped with easy access to the trading area.

A lovely, large and well-kept beer garden is located to the rear of the property and features an idyllic patio with seating for 20 guests. The outdoor space is well planted and overlooks the large children’s play area, which is a fantastic feature for attracting families in the warmer months. There is potential to develop this space and turn it in to a major feature for alfresco drinking and dining. The pub benefits from its own split level car park which offers space for up to 40 vehicles.

Regional Manager's Thoughts

The customer base consists of varied age groups who frequent the pub to socialise, relax and enjoy the food throughout the week. Tea time has proven to be a particularly busy trading period, drawing more families who are attracted by the children’s play area. Currently the Yellow Lion offers a well-established weekly entertainment schedule which is very popular with the locals. Potential exists to enhance the food trade with a value for money offer. We require an experienced food publican who is able to add to the already vibrant trade and engage with the customers.
