BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY

Due to a change in personal circumstances, I’ve made the decision to move on from running The Woodside Bar, and we’re now looking for someone who may be interested in taking the pub forward.

The Woodside is an established community pub with a loyal customer base and everything in place for someone who wants the opportunity to run their own venue and put their own stamp on it.

On a personal level, I've put a huge amount into the pub over the last year and met some brilliant people along the way, so this hasn't been a decision I've made lightly. But I know it's the right decision for me, and I'd genuinely like to see the pub passed on to somebody who wants to take it into its next chapter.

The pub remains open and trading as normal. This is not a closure announcement.

I'm working with Rosemount Inns regarding a suitable new operator and, for the right person, there may be scope for a relatively quick handover.

Any agreement would be subject to Rosemount Inns' approval and terms.

If you're genuinely interested, or know somebody who might be, please private message the page and I can put you in touch with the relevant people to discuss the opportunity properly.

Shares would be greatly appreciated.

Another Hamilton pub has sadly closed its doors. 💔

We were really sorry to hear that The Woodhead Bar has made the incredibly difficult decision to close.

Like many people, we’ve always seen it as a busy, popular pub, which just goes to show that what people see from the other side of the bar doesn’t always tell the whole story.

Behind every pub are people who have poured their time, money, energy and often their own personal savings into creating somewhere for their community to come together. When one closes, it’s not just a business that disappears, it’s jobs, friendships, memories and a place that has been part of people’s lives.

And it’s a reminder of just how challenging the pub trade is right now.

We know that running a pub isn’t easy. The costs involved in keeping the doors open continue to be a huge challenge, and simply being busy doesn’t necessarily mean a pub is making money.

So from everyone at The Woodside, we want to send our very best wishes to the team at The Woodhead. We know how much work, love and sacrifice goes into running a pub, and we know this won’t have been an easy decision. ❤️

If you have a local pub that you love, support it when you can. Go for the pint. Have the meal. Watch the football. Go to the quiz. Take your pals. Bring your family. Because every time you spend money in a local pub, you’re helping keep a local business (and the people behind it) going.
🍻❤️

Here’s a wee World Cup song by the fantastic David Neary, who’s made an appearance or two with his guitar in The Woodside over the years.

Give it a wee listen, a like and a share for him! 😃
