Be it to just hang out during the day or after work, watch the Sports on TV or have a great night out you can enjoy pub food and a great selection of wines, spirits or real and craft ales. This is the first time that this Managed House has become available for a Tenancy Agreement and recently refurbished with its mix of traditional and contemporary décor and furnishings it is a turnkey operation ready to go and really is an opportunity not to be missed You enter this iconic venue via the corner entrance lobby with the large bar servery set along the back wall. This ground floor trading space is open plan and set out with a mix of fixed banquets, 8 booth seating areas with their own TVs, high bar stools and tables to accommodate circa 120 seated covers with a max capacity of 320. It’s a great open plan space which is perfect for creating both a high energy night-time entertainment vibe yet also a lower key daytime environment great for getting a drink and bite to eat with friends. There are plenty of TVs and screens to catch the big sporting events and the venue is popular with football fans on match days.

Regional Manager's Thoughts I am excited to be able to market this venue, this truly is an exceptional site and an opportunity not to be missed This is the first time The Friary has been available to the Tenancy Market and is a great opportunity for an experienced independent operator to make their mark and take on an already great pub, add their touch and develop site into a fantastic offer, such a gem of an opportunity very rarely comes to the market. Due to the high level of interest expected, I strongly recommend that you contact me promptly to avoid any disappointment. Surrounding Area The Friary is sat on the corner of Friar Lane and Hotel Street nestled in the heart of Leicester city centre just meters away from the main shopping streets, central market with Leicester Cathedral and De Montford University in close walking distance.
