The Elephant & Castle is located on a large corner plot on the main road from Chorley to Bolton just outside of small town of Addlington. The area is well populated with both private and social housing and a number of retail shops within ¼ mile of the outlet. The local community is mixed with white collar and blue collar workers. We are looking for an experienced operator who has the drive and passion to develop the site to its maximum potential focusing on the food offer and further developing the entertainment activity.

  • Great location close to other small business and ameneties
  • Potential to develop the food offer
  • Opportunity to make the the Elephant & Castle the first choice community pub in the area

Trading style

The outlet has a traditional feel with a central bar servery with a zoned games area with both darts and a pool table. The other trade area has a coal fire and a number of large screen TVs showing live sports and racing channels. There is a value for money food offer in place which is served from a good sized, well equipped commercial kitchen. The outlet also benefits from many pub teams who use the site as a base. The drinks sales side of the business is thriving and the entertainment provided throughout the month contributes to the overall income.

Trade accommodation

The open plan trade areas need a general upgrade and is a little tired. Externally the signage needs upgrading along with a lighting scheme. The small garden area is secure and is a big attraction in the summer months.

Private accommodation

The private accommodation comprises 3 large bedrooms, a lounge, kitchen and bathroom
