The Chapel Park is a locals pub offering a strong first-time opportunity, with clear scope for the right operator to grow the business. It is a modern-built public house situated on a large housing estate in the Chapel Park and Westerhope area, a suburb on the edge of Newcastle upon Tyne. Located next to a small row of local shops, the pub benefits from steady local footfall and very limited competition in the immediate area.
Externally, the pub has a small shared car park and a beer patio area to the rear, keeping outdoor trading simple and manageable. Internally, it is open plan with the bar positioned to the side and seating and games areas arranged around it. The pub is well frequented by local customers, particularly for regular events and live sport shown on the TVs, which form the core of its current offer.
The surrounding area is largely privately owned housing with a mixed demographic, providing a reliable customer base for a community-focused, wet-led business. Current estimated gross weekly sales are around £3,500, with sales 100% wet. With improved attention to detail, consistent standards and a well-thought-out business plan, the business has the potential to grow significantly and should be capable of achieving weekly gross sales of around £6,000.
This is a straightforward, wet-led community pub with clear untapped potential, well suited to a hands-on operator who enjoys building relationships with local customers and driving performance through strong standards, regular events and a focused approach to trading.
