The Railway is a lovely community pub located in the affluent village of Shenstone, Lichfield. Situated next to Shenstone train station, there is plenty of local and passing trade to tap into.
The pub functions via a one-room operation that is split into three distinct areas - a dining area with circa 36 covers, a bar area with around 20 covers, and a lower lounge area with around 16 covers. It also benefits from a lovely outdoor area for summer trade.
Currently the pub is achieving weekly sales of around £5,500 split 60/40 in favour of wet, but a community-driven Operator could see sales increase by implementing consistent weekly activity and introducing their own menu.
The Railway would benefit from an Operator with a food background who is keen to implement their own homecooked menu, with strong community networking skills to bring in locals and keep this pub at the heart of the village.
