Shape the future of a long‑established Birkenhead local with huge potential and an investment planned.

If you’re looking for the chance to run a proper community pub in the heart of Birkenhead, The Crown could be the perfect opportunity. This well‑known, long‑established Grade II listed local sits on Conway Street and has long been part of daily life for residents and visitors. With a substantial internal and external refurbishment planned, subject to full approval, you’ll have the opportunity to relaunch a traditional pub that feels refreshed, warm and welcoming, while still holding on to the heritage and character that locals value.

Pub

The Crown is a traditional, spacious pub with a sociable and straightforward layout built around a single central bar that serves the entire space.

To the left, a dedicated area for pool and darts provides a solid foundation for building league activity and midweek trade, while the main bar room features fixed seating and plenty of space for locals to gather, watch sport and enjoy a relaxed drink. A small beer garden offers additional outdoor space during warmer months.

The planned upcoming refurbishment will modernise both the interior and exterior ensuring that the pub feels contemporary while retaining the traditional features that define its identity.

Location

The pub benefits from its prominent position on Conway Street, a major route running just north of Birkenhead town centre. This well‑connected location links Birkenhead Park, the waterfront, local shops, residential areas and key transport services, including Birkenhead Bus Station and Conway Park railway station. The site is also close to the Queensway Tunnel, providing easy access to and from Liverpool.

With shops, businesses, commuters and residents all on its doorstep, The Crown is perfectly placed to attract a broad mix of customers and re‑establish itself as a popular local hub.

Ideal Operator

This opportunity will suit someone with strong local ties and real ambition. You may already run a business in the area and see The Crown as a natural extension of that presence, or you may be already in hospitality looking to take on your first pub business with the drive and determination to build something of your own.

Confidence, energy and strong social media skills will be key in relaunching the pub following the investment and building visibility within the community. If you enjoy creating a friendly, sociable atmosphere and want to take a traditional pub into its next chapter, this could be the perfect fit.

Accommodation

This pub comes with a private accommodation of three bedrooms and kitchen and a lounge.

About the Agreement

We’re excited to introduce this pub opportunity, which will initially be available on a Tenancy at Will (TAW). This gives you a flexible way to get trading quickly while the long‑term agreement type and full financial details are being finalised.

The long‑term agreement is likely to be a Flexible Tenancy, subject to full approval. All investment and financial information will be confirmed once a detailed property assessment is complete, ensuring you have everything you need to make an informed decision about taking the pub on.
