More Information

Traditional Village Pub!

Nestled in the gorgeous North Yorkshire scenery, stands the traditional Spotted Ox. The historic village of Tockwith sits in between Wetherby and York and is home to over 1,000 adults as well as bringing in tourism due to its close proximity to all of York’s attractions and Wetherby racecourse.

This well-loved local has both a fantastic drink selection and a great food offering with something for everyone. New operators could expand upon this by utilising the licensing hours to the fullest, developing a solid rhythm of the week, and creating a great marketing plan to draw in the daytime and weekday trade.

The Spotted Ox is available on our investment tenancy agreement. Click here for more information on this agreement. 

We’re always open to new ideas, what would you do to drive trade?

If you’ve benefited from running or owning a pub business, we’d love to hear what experience you can bring.
