Could you run this stunning-looking pub right in the heart of Manchester City Centre? Situated just off the very busy Deansgate drag and surrounded by lots of offices the Rising Sun has all of the design attributes of a City pub and has had a recent substantial investment, both externally and inside.
The pub is trading 7 days a week with big focus on lunchtime and the after-work crowd as well as being an integral part of the City Centre circuit at the weekends.
The Rising Sun is part of the Unity Social pub business…a friendly, community pub (in the heart of the City) and with great facilities for sports-viewing. The pub has had a full refurbishment to include external upgrade and new signage, full internal redecoration and fantastic AV to help with providing the very best sports coverage and music-led events.
The Rising Sun has a great drinks range that is priced below our local competitors and runs a daily program of pub-activity including live music, karaoke, quiz and bingo.
Accommodation
The domestic accommodation, a huge bonus in the City Centre, consists of a living room, bathroom, kitchen and 2 bedrooms.
Ideal Operator
This opportunity is perfect for an experienced operator who thrives in a community-focused environment. You’ll be passionate about creating a welcoming space for locals, delivering a high-quality sports experience, and maintaining the pub’s much-loved offer of live entertainment and traditional games. Building strong relationships with regulars, charities, local businesses and sports teams is essential. You’ll also be confident using social media and digital platforms to promote pub activities, events, and offer helping to drive footfall and build engagement with the wider community online.
Our Unity Social Area Managers will support you in building on the current daytime trade and boosting evening volumes through a strong line-up of pub activities and investment into live music and sports events. The Rising Sun benefits from a competitive drinks pricing strategy and a focus on being the beating heart of the community.
