    The Business

    Our client has owned and operated the business for over 17 years and is now looking to sell due to retirement.

    During this period of occupation, the business has been a strong part of the close knit community within the local area. It has enjoyed a wet-only trade from a regular clientele base as well as from workers traveling too and from work in the surrounding commercial and industrial districts.

    It is our understanding that prior to Covid, net turnover stood in excess of £150,000, with an excellent net profit. Further accounting detail will be made available to serious parties following a formal viewing.

    Although historically operated as a wet-only public house, the East Riding Hotel is offers scope to install a kitchen in order to introduce a simple and traditional food offering. Furthermore there is potential to convert the upper floors into trade areas which would massively increase turnover.

    Alternatively, subject to Planning Permission, the premises would suit conversion into alternate use such as retail, office, conversion into a single residential swelling or HMO use.

    FREEHOLD £150,000 to include fixtures, fittings and goodwill.
