Gilbey's Restaurant, 1 Market Square, Old Amersham, Buckinghamshire, HP7 0DF

The property is a converted 17th century grammar school, beautifully converted to a contemporary high street restaurant with covers on the ground floor and additional covers or private dining on the first floor. It has outside seating in the popular courtyard garden with a charming feel throughout which is steeped in historical interest.

Old Amersham is a charming and affluent market town in Buckinghamshire which has seen a large number of new people move to the area, notably from London, since the end of the pandemic.

The restaurant is located adjacent to a roundabout so is passed by hundreds of people each day and is therefore very well known in the local area. Nearby notable towns include London (30), Beaconsfield (6) and Watford (12).

Ground floor - restaurant seating for 42 covers around a central bar
A high grade commercial kitchen with bespoke equipment and separate wash up
First floor - additional dining covers which can also be used as private dining/meeting facilities for 12-15 people
First floor office and storage
Mens and womens WC's

Commercial equipment can be included dependant on the offer received. Personal items such as the pictures on the walls will not be included. An inventory will be provided once a deal is agreed.

Courtyard dining for c.20 adjacent to the restaurant. A tranquil area that is very popular in the summer months.

No accommodation as it stands but the upstairs rooms could be converted to a living area, as has been done in the past.

Rarely do high street properties become available in the heart of Old Amersham, this property was purchased by the current owners in 1989 and has been a successful, independently run restaurant since then.

A new owner now has the opportunity to continue the current restaurant or could establish a new style of operation appealing to the affluent local community, who would welcome a new offering to the high street.

It would also sit well within an investors portfolio, attracting tenants looking to take advantage of the strong location.

No staff to TUPE.

Trade information can be made available to seriously interested parties.

Currently closed.
