COCKTAIL BAR in Bradford for Sale. Ernest Wilson are delighted to bring to market this city centre bar which enjoys a fantastic reputation within the hospitality trade. The business was established in early 2022 and trades evenings and nights only, predominantly serving workers from bars and restaurants – tremendous potential for enthusiastic working owners to open during the day to further increase trade. The bar has been operating as an American themed 'Dive Bar' specialising in themed cocktails, live music and American Sports. Weekly turnover £2,500 to £3,000. Situated in the heart of the city centre of the 2025 Capital of Culture and near to the new state of the art Darley Street Market, the business is ideally placed to cater for daytime customers in addition to its current evening and night-time operation. The premises are held on secure lease with low rent for such a prominent city centre position. Comprising ground floor bar lounge area and well stocked cocktail bar. Store room, ladies and gents WC. Stock £5,000. EPC Band B. BAR, RESTAURANT AND LIVE MUSIC VENUE in Sheffield for Sale.

The premises, which are held on lease, have been fitted and equipped to a high standard and are superbly presented, creating an intimate ambiance for those who enjoy a quality dining experience. The business is run in easy hours over three evenings and one afternoon per week, creating obvious potential to increase trade by opening during weekdays, particularly so given its city centre location.

Ladies and gents WC. Cellar. Stock £4,000. EPC Band C. FULLY FITTED AND EQUIPPED BAR / CAFE in Chapel Allerton, Leeds for Sale. Chapel Allerton is a vibrant and highly sought after residential suburb just on the outskirts of Leeds city centre. For decades it has been one of the most popular urban villages for young professionals working in Leeds, being just a short 10 minute drive away from the city. Chapel Allerton has always enjoyed a buzzing restaurant, bar and cafe scene, with many high quality, unique and independent food and beverage businesses. It is very rare that licensed premises come available in this area, especially a turn-key ready to trade, fully fitted and equipped operation such as this. Alley Cats had established itself on the Chapel Allerton drinking circuit as a fun cafe bar with a simple food menu and music. Latterly, breakfasts became very popular and would undoubtedly prove to be so again. We believe the venue would be successful as a micro pub operation, coffee bar or re-instate itself as a cafe bar with food - the kitchen is plenty adequate. The venue was originally run by a pub group, but in our opinion would best suit owner operators with a hands-on approach. Situated in a bustling parade of shops and complimenting businesses and with excellent free on-street parking. Ground floor premises with decked outside seating doubling the premises capacity. Internally, the cafe bar is approximately 55 sq m (595 sq ft) of open plan space with service bar and seating for 30 customers. Rear catering kitchen with commercial quality equipment under a hooded extraction system. EPC Band C. POPULAR MUSIC, SPORTS AND FUNCTIONS BAR in North Yorkshire for Sale. Located in a major North Yorkshire town, this highly popular and vibrant, free-of-tie, sports and music bar has been established for over a decade now and is acknowledged as the number one venue for watching sports, live music and DJ sets. The venue is also regularly hired out to host private functions. A fun bar with a variety of nightly entertainment and games. Weekly turnover £8,000. Although the business benefits from a 10am to 3am alcohol licence, it is currently run predominantly by family members and casual staff and operates reasonable hours during the week and closes at 1am Friday and Saturday, leaving huge potential for energetic and ambitious new owners to take fuller advantage of the permitted hours. As is the case with bars such as these, dedication to hosting and promoting events, parties and entertainment is vital to the success of such businesses, so we envisage young and enterprising new owners taking over from the current owner who is now in his seventies and wishes to retire from the scene. The size and quality of the kitchen also offers tremendous potential to introduce an attractive food element to the current operation. THE PREMISES A highly prominent, stand-alone building which was internally fitted and equipped with a no expense spared budget. An eye-catching open plan space with a central feature open staircase. Ground floor: Open plan arrangement with full length bar. The floor has a capacity of 200. Flat screen Ultra HD TV’s on all walls. Gaming machines and Pool table. Outstanding back of house areas include a large catering kitchen, superbly equipped with commercial quality catering equipment, beer cellar with state of the art pumps, lots of bottle and dry and chilled goods storage. Ladies, gents and disabled persons WCs. Mezzanine level: Bespoke built, glass and steel, feature staircase leads to an open plan area with bar, dance floor, stage / DJ set up area. The area is permitted to accommodate 140 with tables set, or 200 plus in a standing setting such as a music / dancing event. Staff only staircase leads to a surprisingly spacious attic floor which is currently being used for storage but could easily be utilised as staff rest / changing room areas, managers office. The premises are fully equipped with CCTV, air-conditioning units, fire system and emergency exits. Externally: Vast outdoor seating area with unlimited capacity and customer car park. EPC Band B. TOWN CENTRE PROMINENT FREEHOLD BAR AND RESTAURANT in Ossett for Sale. A well-known venue in the town centre. A huge, no expense spared refurbishment project resulted in a modern bar and bistro whilst respectfully maintaining a number of the original features. The original brewhouse dates back to 1768 whilst the cottages date further back still. The bar and restaurant was leased to a management team until recently, but is now available with vacant possession. Although currently closed, the venue remains comprehensively fitted and equipped and is in turn-key ready condition to open its doors and trade. Under its original ownership, the business was the most popular drinking and dining venue in Ossett town centre, and with little effort would quickly re-establish itself as the main draw in the town. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold, free of tie, licensed property which could be leased to competent new tenants for a rental return, or run by owner operators. Of interest to breweries, craft ale producers, pub groups or a food led team of professionals, as well as commercial property landlords looking for an excellent return on capital invested. THE PROPERTY - Probably the best location in the town centre as it has profiles from both the town main public car parks, as well as from the pedestrianised shopping and market precincts on Bank Street. The Bank Street entrance enjoys a huge private outside forecourt capable of accommodating scores of customers during those warmer months. The property has a total floor area of circa 321 sq m (3,455 sq ft) and includes a bar and restaurant with commercially equipped catering kitchen on the ground floor, plus an elaborate central feature staircase to the restaurants upper floor. There is potential to extend the restaurant through to provide a private dining room on the first floor. Ancillary areas include customer and staff toilets and managers office. EPC Band B.
