Pub Tenancy - Aberdeen

Could you run this pub?
The Scotia, Aberdeen is a traditional community pub sat on a cobbled road, with a loyal and regular weekend following. The pub is drinks led and offers two good sized bars, each with a separate serving area. The public bar is well equipped after recent refurbishment and each area has separate toilets. The lounge bar doubles as a function room and offers space for bar sports. There is an established pool and darts team that frequent the pub and the local area is full of residents with an increase in students and young professionals moving into the area. This is a great opportunity to provide a welcoming drinking spot for those nearby to relax after a busy day or enjoy a daytime drink.

It isfull of history with hundreds of castles, and is widely known for its long summer days and occasional Northern Lights in the winter.
The Scotia is a town pub which sits on Summerfield Terrace, on the roadside between King Street and Park Street and within easy walking distance to the beach area. It is located close to Aberdeen FC and trades well on game days. There is an increasing base of students (with student accommodation across the area) and first time buyers.

This pub may suit
This opportunity may suit a first-time operator/manager who is keen to move into running their own pub. As it stands, the site trades well at the weekend but requires a Publican with real passion, personality, ideas and drive to market the business and grow the customer base and present potentially a great offer to the market.
