More Information

Established Modern Business Ready to Trade

The Fellsider was refurbished in 2016 and is a well-established modern local pub with food located in the heart of a large residential estate in Whickham. Whickham is a small, affluent commuter town located five miles south west of Newcastle Upon Tyne and this combined with easy access to excellent schools, transport, shops (Gateshead Metrocentre 3 miles) and local leisure facilities, means Whickham is a popular family place to live. This family and dog friendly pub forms part of a small shopping centre, consisting of a supermarket, newsagent and post office, and enjoys a high profile position on the corner of two busy roads.

The pub has built a good reputation for its traditional home cooked pub classics & tasty Sunday lunch, served alongside a mainstream range of drinks, with some premium offers. The pub shows live sports, as well as providing entertainment including live music and quiz nights. The current offer works well, but there is opportunity to introduce an appealing cocktail offer and more varied premium spirit range, including a gin range, to really drive the premium aspect of this popular community pub.

Attitude is more valuable than experience. If you’ve got the following, we’d love to hear from you.

  • Understanding of the local community
  • You know what it takes to build a successful business
  • You love hospitality and are great with customers
