The sale of The Golden Fleece is a fantastic opportunity for a local or regional operator to invest in this leasehold business and take advantage of the attractive, busy village area. Since taking over the pub 10 years ago, the owner has generated a huge local following across Harden Village, Bingley and neighbouring areas in close proximity, with both local residents and sports teams such as the cricket, golf and rugby societies. Lots of revenue is generated via the television sport showing via Sky Sports and BT entertainment.

Prior to the Covid pandemic, the kitchen was open and restaurant trade increased turnover significantly. During the lockdown periods, a simple takeaway offering was introduced which was a success with local residents. Further turnover growth can be derived by re-opening the restaurant again, re-establishing the dining area and hosting quiz nights, fish & chip, Indian curry and steak evenings, as previous.

The external area to the rear has proved to be a fantastic host to many function events over the years and has significant potential to be utilised even further. Promotions of the business can also be increased via social media and advertising platforms.

Staff are employed on a part time / zero hour contract basis and can be transferred with the sale. There is currently a full time manager in place who lives on site.
