Queens Hotel

9 Allardice Street, Stonehaven, AB39 2BS

A COSTAL PUB WITH LETTING ROOMS

The Queens Hotel, located in the coastal town of Stonehaven is currently a wet led pub with letting rooms, however there is a fully functioning kitchen available to use for you to start building a good food proposition. This pub would ideally suit a couple with some food and trade experience although someone with management experience could do well here. There is an opportunity to Introduce a mainstream pub food offer or something else a bit different could work such as small plates or tapas. Planned events/entertainment whilst engaging with the local community are all important areas to be developed. Showing live sport has been a feature at this site and should be continued.

Location

BDM Portrait

I am seeking an operator who has a passion and desire to operate a great pub business with an opportunity to develop a great pub food offer whilst benefiting from 8 letting rooms. They will need to be able to drive food, drink and room sales whilst creating a positive presence on social media. This would suit an experienced operator or couple who can deliver a great offer and service to the local market.
