Job Details
With huge screens, top-tier entertainment, great food & drink, and an unbeatable atmosphere, our Grandstand pubs are built for people who live and breathe live sport. We don't just show sport - we live it. From matchdays to live music and big sporting moments, Grandstand pubs are where local communities and fans come together, and where your next partnership could start.
The Union Inn, Aylestone is a well appointed, wet led local just 50 yards off the High Street. It's lively from open to close with a loyal regulars' base, plus a comfortable lounge that's popular with families and couples in the evenings and at weekends. The site benefits from a courtyard smoking area, a sun trap beer garden that comes into its own in summer, and a large car park.
Sport is at the heart of the offer - which will only expand following the planned major investment which will transform this pub into a Marston's Grandstand pub.
The Union Inn draws strong crowds for live football and rugby, and it's a recognised focal point for Leicester City matchdays-while being welcoming to all fans for all games. You'll also find a following for darts and pool - so an operator with a passion for sports is essential. The pub will offer a Marston's company menu, so food experience is also a requirement.
Currently the pub is 100% achieving sales of £8,000 weekly - which is set to increase post-capex and with the introduction of the Marston's menu.
What's in it for you?
- 22% share of weekly sales (excluding VAT) plus a guaranteed annual retained sum of £25K (released weekly)
- Low ingoing costs, deposits starting from £5,000 and £360 legal cost. (
- deposits can vary dependant on business - ask us for more details)
- Accommodation included with most bills covered, except the council tax & TV License (
- a fee may be payable for some services such as garden maintenance)
- As part of our application process, we may use Lily, an AI-powered interviewing assistant to support the early stages of screening. Lily helps us move quickly, keep things flexible for you, and create a more consistent candidate experience, but one thing you should know - all hiring decisions are still made by our people.
- Please note: Photos featured in our Grandstand advertisements may include images of previous Grandstand investments across the estate to illustrate the look and feel of a typical Grandstand conversion. Images used may not reflect the current setup of the specific site being advertised. All proposed investment is subject to final approval and formal sign off in accordance with company governance and capital expenditure approval processes.
