The Coach & Horses is a well‑established community pub at the heart of Anstey, known for its friendly atmosphere and loyal local following. Currently delivering around £10k in weekly sales on a 100% wet offer, this is a solid, dependable business with strong foundations and significant headroom for growth.
The pub benefits from a broad customer base, including regular local residents, sports‑focused guests drawn to live televised sport, and established pool teams and social clubs. Its proven sports appeal provides a strong platform, with clear opportunities to broaden the offer and increase engagement through events, teams and promotions.
A key feature of the business is its dedicated function room, which offers the opportunity to hold local events and functions and further drive pub revenue. With the right operator, this space can unlock additional midweek income through private hires, celebrations, meetings, community group use and linked food or buffet offers — presenting a genuine opportunity for proactive local marketing and sales.
