    The Whalebone Inn is situated in the commercial and industrial port city of Hull, in the East Riding District of Yorkshire. Sitting close to the River Hull, the pub was once frequented by sailors who would jump off their ships and drop in for a drink. Located in the heart of a busy industrial area just north of the city centre, right by the busy Holderness Road, the pub has a significant volume of passing trade and regular clientele. The pub has proved to be popular with after-work locals and is used as a starting venue for those wanting a drink before heading off into the city centre.

    The Business

    Our client has owned and operated the Whalebone Inn since November 2015 and is now looking to offer the premises to the freehold market in order to retire.

    During our clients period of occupation, the business has been a strong part of a close-knit local community. It has enjoyed a wet-only trade from a regular client base as well as from commuters traveling to and from work in the surrounding commercial and industrial districts.
