The Blue Boar Inn, Watling St, Mancetter, Atherstone, CV9 1NE

Description

The Blue Boar Inn is a well‑known and long‑established family run pub and restaurant. The pub has been in the current ownership since the 90's, and has been developed over time to add a 100 cover restaurant to the rear of the pub and lettings rooms upstairs.

The layout allows for specific dining and drinking areas, functions and events as part of a wide ranging offering.

The Blue Boar Inn is located in the attractive village of Mancetter, near Atherstone, North Warwickshire. The property sits on the main arterial route (A5) linking Atherstone (1 mile), Nuneaton (6 miles) and Hinckley (8 miles).

There is currently significant development of new homes under construction within the area, providing a greater local catchment, whilst the M42 and M69 are easily accessible.

Nearby attractions include Twycross Zoo (7 miles), Drayton Manor Theme Park (9 miles) and the NEC (15 miles).

The pub offers a flexible layout with varied trading areas. The original pub contains three rooms with a Bar (30 covers), Lounge (25 covers) and small restaurant (30 covers). The rear of the building was extended to create a 100 cover restaurant with its own bar servery.

The original central core of the pub contains a modern fitted kitchen bar servery and access to the cellar and letting rooms.

The ground floor has 4 trading areas, totalling around 175 covers.
Restaurant - c. 100 covers plus bar servery

The pub is set on a sizeable half acre plot with a large car park and beer garden. The pub frontage is set on the junction of Mancetter Road and Watling Street, immediately off the main A5 roundabout

The owners are selling due to retirement so there is significant opportunity to re-invent the business and create a new offering.

Food operators can utilise the four rooms to maximise internal covers and increase trading hours.

There is significant scope to increase both wet and dry sales, run events and utilise the letting rooms to the full potential.
