Nestled on the corner of the Proximity Apartments, this property is in a dress-circle location for a hospitality venue. Fully kitted out and currently trading 6 days a week as a bar and grill, the current owner is open to letting this establishment change hands.
The unique location provides an opportunity for someone to develop a landmark venue in the Canberra hospitality landscape. There is ample parking for patrons, and both inside and outside dining areas. While currently serving pub classics, it is not hard to envisage this place developing into a gastro-pub. Currently pouring local beers and flat-screen TVs tuned into the sports channels, it is also pretty easy to imagine this place becoming one of Canberras most recognisable sports bars.
The east-facing aspect makes this a lovely place for patrons to enjoy a coffee or eggs benny in the morning sun. The east-facing orientation of the venue also makes it a magical place to enjoy a drink and the cool breeze in the shady outdoor area on a warm evening, while look across the street at the sculptures of the Australian institute of Sport.
