More about The Crown
A pair, one ideally with catering skills or experience, who enjoy becoming part of the local community. They must have a passion for excellent cask ales, be able to create a welcoming atmosphere and a new enticing offer.
The pub is in a great location, visible from Westbury’s main road, there is a wealth of passing trade and visitors. For many years the pub has operated as 100% wet led, it does have a trade kitchen, and it would benefit from a food. The Crown is supported by the local skittles, pool and darts teams, who make great use of its function room. We plan to invest in the Crown by upgrading its facilities and freshen it’s look. With investment and the right applicants, the Crown will experience an exciting transformation.

The pub benefits from a 2-sided bar serving the two separate dining areas, both areas have working log burners. The main section of the pub provides 40 covers with a further 70 covers available in the function room. The function room is a great space for gatherings and games teams who can make use of its skittle alley, dart board and pool table. There is a bar, but it is currently out of use.
The trade kitchen, storeroom and cellar is to the rear of the building as is the outside space. The pubs courtyard provides a great outside space for its customers (approx. 50 covers), alternatively it could be used for private parking.
The first floor consists of 3 bedrooms (2 ensuite), a lounge 1 bathroom and a kitchen. On the second floor you will find a further 3 bedrooms.
