Pub Overview A refurbishment investment of around £150,182 is planned to transform the Empire Bar into a refreshed and welcoming community pub. What would you do with this pub to make it a success? About the area The Empire Bar is located in Burnbank, Hamilton, an area with strong historical roots as a former 19th-century mining village. Situated on a residential estate, the pub is well placed to serve the surrounding local community and has the potential to become a popular social hub for local residents. There are 665 adults within a 10-minute walk and 1,154 within a 20-minute walk, providing a strong local catchment. Within the immediate area there is only one direct pub competitor, the Glenlee Bar located across the road, which is described as a tired and underinvested wet-led venue. This presents a clear opportunity for the Empire Bar to stand out following refurbishment. The pub currently operates with a value-led, traditional offer and relies largely on weekend trade, with limited daytime use. Following the refurbishment, the refreshed look and feel will help reposition the pub to appeal to a broader and more diverse customer base, encouraging more frequent visits and increased walk-in trade from the local community. The offer Empire Bar is available on our investment tenancy agreement. Click here for more information on this agreement.
