Cask Ale Opportunity
The New Parkgate Hotel is situated in a prominent position on the edge of a densely populated residential area and is significantly close to the Ricoh Arena. The pub has a spacious open plan trading area that is traditional in decor with exposed beams, along with an enclosed beer garden that makes it popular with families. The new Publican would need to build upon inhouse activities, games teams and local charity events whilst capitalising where possible on events at the Ricoh Arena.
The Tap & Spile is a large community local, located in the north end of Stafford. It is an imposing building and comprises a good sized T-shaped lounge with a separate games area plus a small snug bar, all served from a central bar counter. The pub was developed as a cask beer specialist some years ago under previous owners and has always retained that cask ale feel, supported by a range of hand pulls and guest beers. It would suit a local Publican with a strong interest in cask beer and sports.
