The trade space at the Moor Top is designed to be both versatile and welcoming, centred around an open plan layout that creates a relaxed and sociable atmosphere. This flowing space allows customers to comfortably enjoy both drinks and dining, making it easy to cater to different occasions throughout the day. A small raised area adds character and provides a natural zone for dining or for hosting small private events, giving the operator flexibility to diversify the offer. Externally, the pub is particularly strong, with a large front beer garden that can accommodate around 150 guests, including a substantial covered section that ensures year-round usability. To the side, a more intimate patio area offers a “secret garden” feel, making it an ideal setting for private hire, summer gatherings or more relaxed, informal occasions. Together, these spaces create a well-balanced offer that can drive both everyday trade and special events.

‘I have worked for Greene King for several years, starting as an Assistant Manager and then becoming General Manager. As well as this, I have extensive hospitality experience having managed various establishments, including coffee shops and even a waterpark in Thailand. I love the charm, community, and history of pubs for being a focal point for so many people, where so many life occasions are celebrated and live long in the memory thereafter. I believe a great franchisee fosters a welcoming atmosphere and engages with the community.’
