The trade area at Middleton’s is built around a long, open single-room layout that creates an immediate sense of energy as soon as customers walk through either of the two main entrance doors. Both entrances lead directly into the main trading space, where a traditional bar runs opposite large, light‑filled windows that showcase the activity inside and make the venue feel bright and welcoming. The simplicity of the layout allows the atmosphere to build naturally, especially on busy match days, while still offering enough flow for customers to move comfortably throughout the space. Toward the rear sits a small snug, ideal for more intimate gatherings or premium sports viewing without breaking the open-plan feel. Behind the scenes, the pub benefits from a large, easily accessed cellar that supports efficient bar service. Overall, the trade area is designed for impact—one room, one bar, and one clear focus on delivering a lively, high‑energy experience.

‘After a successful career in TV and Media Production, my love for pubs and their important role in our lives saw me pivot into the hospitality sector and I have never looked back since. I have several years of experience supporting pub operators in Scotland and have particular expertise in drinks ranging. I like to tailor my relationship with each partner I work with to focus on their needs based on the uniqueness of their business and operation. I combine this with my understanding of the wider market and changes in consumer habits to help all my partners reach their business goals.’
