Lion

35 Warwick Road, Kenilworth, Warwickshire, CV8 1HN

KENILWORTH HIGH STREET

The Lion at Kenilworth is a town centre pub which is surrounded by other shops and businesses. The site currently trades at 100% wet led but offers the potential to add a basic food offer. This opportunity would suit a single operator or couple who can build upon the pubs growing drinks trade. The Lion operates very much as a traditional pub, with sport on TV, regular entertainment, and live music. There is the potential here for capital development in the future to refurbish the pub once the right new partner has been identified.

BDM Portrait

I am looking for an operator who can see the potential of this great town centre pub and has the experience to add a great food offer. It needs a USP such as Best Sausage Rolls or Burgers to complement its great range of beers.
