The Red Lion Beefeater is located on the northern edge of Blackpool, just off the A587 Fleetwood Road, providing convenient access to Blackpool town centre and Fleetwood, as well as connections to the M55 motorway.

Public transport is readily accessible, with regular bus services operating along the A587 corridor, offering direct links into Blackpool town centre and surrounding areas, making the location easily accessible for both residents and visitors.

The property opens into a welcoming reception area, leading through to a public bar area and sports bar (c.40 covers), offering a relaxed drinking environment well-suited to casual trade and live sports viewing.

The main dining area is arranged across a split-level restaurant (c.150 covers), creating distinct yet connected areas that allow flexibility in accommodating different customer groups, from families to larger parties.

Customer facilities are well catered for with two sets of customer WC’s, in addition to a disabled WC with baby change facilities.

To the rear, the property benefits from a fully equipped trade kitchen, including a walk-in fridge and freezer, supporting efficient service and high-volume food preparation. Additional back-of-house space includes a staff room, providing essential welfare facilities for employees.

The trade fixtures and fittings are included in the purchase price. Certain items bearing corporate identity, brand name, third-party owned or on the excluded list (see “Terms of Disposal” document) may be removed from the property prior to, or shortly after, completion.
