Property description & features

  • THRIVING BUSINESS
  • DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
  • SCOPE TO GROW BUSINESS
This is an ideal opportunity for a motivated individual to take over the reins of this long-established bar and grow the existing thriving business.   The Crown Bar is a traditional pub which dates back to the early 1880’s and is located in the heart of the town of Wick in the Market Square which is surrounded by shops, cafes and restaurants.
Due to the current owner wishing to retire she has reluctantly decided to put this immaculate establishment on the market.   The Crown spans over four levels, comprising of a basement, main bar, first floor bar/restaurant with seating for sixty covers and a kitchen. A function room with ladies and gents’ toilets completes the accommodation on the fourth floor.
The Crown bar can be accessed on the ground floor from both a side and main door entrance. This area is completely open plan with room for 60 seated covers and more standing, with gents and ladies’ toilets accessed through oak doors.   It is immaculately presented throughout with a juke box, pool table, TV and enjoys regular clientele due to its prominent location in the town centre. There is an excellent selection of spirits, beers and ales within the bar with the basement cellar located immediately below. 
On the first floor is another bar which is currently not in use.  This room could be renovated and reinstated as a restaurant as it once was as there is a kitchen immediately behind the bar area. There is built in seating throughout this room and it would not take too much work to reinstate it.
On the second  floor is a superb function room as well as ladies and gents’ toilets which alternatively could be turned into owners’ accommodation.
Although in need of some renovation on the first and second floors, this is a fabulous opportunity for someone to own a bar/restaurant, to hold small weddings, private functions and increase the wet sales further. 
Located in the town centre, the bar is within a few minutes’ walk to the Waterfront Nightclub, a laundrette, restaurants, cafes and retail outlets.  It is also close to the riverside where there is plenty of parking and within a short driving distance to both primary and secondary education.  Wick is the second largest town in the county of Caithness and benefits from the John O Groats Airport, The Caithness General Hospital and good coach and rail links both North and South.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
