Layzell`s Clubs Limited Freehold, Refurbished Licensed Bar, Nightclub and Entertainment Venue

Ref. CO142

Location Minster On Sea , Isle of Sheppey,Kent

Asking Price £850,000

Business Profile

This business has been established for approximately thirty years and has been managed by the current owners for the last eleven. The business has for many years been well known as ‘the place to go ‘especially at the weekend on the Isle of Sheppey.

Since taking over the business several years ago, the current owner has invested £500,000 to ensure that the venue is able to retain its reputation throughout the local community and beyond.

New flooring, ceilings, bar areas, toilets, furniture and pool tables as well as converting dead space into an additional bar have all contributed to the continued success of the business.

The club opens until 2 am on Fridays and Saturdays and it is these weekend evenings where the establishment comes into its own.

The club is used as a disco/dance venue to visit after meals or drinks at other premises across the island. The business has two large function rooms that are hired for Weddings and other celebrations.

The venue can cater for approximately 200 people in the function suites and another 200 in the main club/bar area. The business has a separate pool/snooker room that is used by the club’s own pool team. Other social and sports clubs have and still are using the venue as a base or meeting point.

The club is located alongside a large private car park with spaces for 80 vehicles. The business is not tied to any brewery and is able to negotiate its own deals for their drinks. This allows the bar and the club to be highly competitive in attracting growing numbers of customers to come and spend their money whist having a great night out.

The freehold property has under gone an extensive refurbishment and is constantly maintained to an excellent order.

There are considerable opportunities within the club and bar area to increase turnover.

Equipment:

All the fixtures and fittings that are required to continue to run the business are of course included in the asking price. These include bar equipment, refrigeration, sound system, furniture, pool tables etc.
