Leisure and hospitality specialist Sidney Phillips has been instructed to market for sale the Limping Fox, a popular pub and eatery in Thames Ditton.
The Limping Fox occupies a prime position in the affluent Surrey/West London suburban village of Thames Ditton, a highly commutable area, home to many facilities including the lawn tennis club, Esher College, grammar schools and hockey clubs. Due to its proximity and easy rail connections to central London, it is one of the most desirable residential locations in the Greater London Urban Area.
The Limping Fox is an attractive public house which has been well maintained and is presented to a high standard throughout. It benefits from a U-shaped trade space for 67 covers, large trade decking and garden, and a three-bedroom owner’s accommodation currently utilised for letting, targeted at groups and families visiting nearby Hampton Court Palace, Bushey Park and Kempton Racecourse.
This is an established community pub which has been transformed during the current owner's seven years of tenure, to provide a popular and family friendly pub and eatery. The food and drinks offering are well targeted at the local community offering a wide range of high-quality wines, premium spirits, local ales and craft beers, including their own Limping Fox lager. The food offering revolves around homemade dishes and boasts strong online reviews. The business has won 'The Best British Roast Dinner' award for the South-East of England.
Robert Cockayne, Regional Valuations Manager for Sidney Phillips commented “The Limping Fox is a great opportunity for a hands-on publican or multi-site operator to acquire an established and strong performing business and take it to the next level. As the property is held on a free-of-tie lease, a new owner could greatly benefit from the ability to buy their wet products at favourable open market prices.”
The leasehold interest of the Limping Fox is available off an asking price of £150,000.
