RUN THE SMITHFIELD BELL, WELSHPOOL

Community Food Partner Opportunity

Overview:

The Smithfield Bell is a popular, family-friendly pub located in Welshpool, ideally positioned on a busy retail park close to the train station, golf course and the renowned Powis Castle and Gardens. Benefiting from a strong mix of local and tourist trade, the pub attracts families, walkers, cyclists and visitors from nearby caravan parks, canal routes and local attractions. With expected weekly sales of around £15,000, this is an exciting opportunity to take on an established community food pub with a proven track record and significant growth potential.

The business:

The Smithfield Bell is a spacious and welcoming pub that caters to a broad customer base. The business currently operates with a 65:35 dry-to-wet sales mix, demonstrating the strength of its food offer and family appeal. Inside, the pub provides seating for approximately 160 covers, alongside a spacious bar area, TVs and a pool table. Outside, customers can enjoy a further 40 covers and a dedicated children's play area, making it a popular destination for family dining and social occasions. The site also benefits from a traditional food menu and a fabulous pizza oven, offering excellent foundations for continued growth.

The opportunity:

With strong trading already in place, there is clear potential to grow sales to £18,000-£20,000 per week through consistent delivery, high operational standards and an enhanced guest experience. Food remains the key growth driver, alongside entertainment, events and further community engagement. The pub's location, broad customer appeal and established reputation create a fantastic opportunity for an operator to build on an already successful business and establish the Smithfield Bell as the go-to family dining destination in the area.

Who we're looking for:

We're looking for an experienced operator, or a strong General Manager ready to take the next step into running their own pub business. The ideal partner will have proven food experience, strong people skills and a passion for driving standards across every aspect of the customer journey. Someone who understands community food pubs, can lead a team effectively and is committed to delivering a fantastic guest experience will thrive in this opportunity.

What's in it for you?

• 26% share of weekly sales (excluding VAT) plus a guaranteed annual retained sum of £35,000 (released weekly).
• Low ingoing costs, with deposits starting from £5,000 and a £360 legal cost. (Deposits can vary depending on the business. Ask us for more details.)
• Accommodation included with most bills covered, excluding Council Tax and TV Licence.

Ready to take the next step?

Run The Smithfield Bell and build on the success of a thriving community food pub with strong local and tourist trade. With a well-established food offer, excellent family credentials, significant trading potential and a fantastic location, this is a brilliant opportunity to put your stamp on an already successful business and take it to the next level. We'd love to hear from you.
