What the experts say: "​There continues to be some great opportunities in Yorkshire’s cities, suburbs and rural areas. Town centre sites both freehold and leasehold in the golden triangle of Leeds, York and Harrogate and major centres such as Sheffield are highly sought after, with prices remaining strong. New developments such as the recent opening of the Dakota Hotel on Greek Street in Leeds have led to multiple openings and rebranding of high quality bars and restaurants in the vicinity. 

“Secondary towns are also increasingly becoming more desirable. One example is Hull, having been the UK’s City of Culture in 2017. Hull’s increasing popularity can be illustrated by the leasehold sale of Garbutt’s Bar on Princes Avenue, handled by Fleurets, which sold for a strong six-figure premium.

“Successful village and countryside operations tend to have merged the boundaries of the traditional wet-led pub, subsequently offering drinks alongside a strong food offering as well as accommodation. Pubs of this style, reporting strong turnovers, are available but at very competitive prices when compared with their pre-2008 levels. Equally, at the other end of the market there is still a supply of cheaper freeholds in need of refurbishment and restructure.” - Andrew Spencer, associate, Fleurets.
