Hansom Cab, Leicester

Property Description

The Hansom Cab is set to receive a significant transformational investment of £280,000 and will be joining our Proper Pubs portfolio as part of a major revitalisation project. This terraced high street pub enjoys a prime location in the heart of Leicester City Centre, positioned just outside the bustling Humberstone Gate bus terminal. Surrounded by a mix of shops, local businesses, and key attractions including the Corn Exchange, Curve Theatre, Leicester Market, and the Haymarket Shopping Centre the pub benefits from exceptional footfall and passing trade. Leicester itself is a vibrant city in the East Midlands, well connected via the M1 and M6 motorways and an extensive rail network, making it an accessible and attractive destination for both locals and visitors

As part of the upcoming transformation, the entire pub will be refreshed with vibrant décor, contemporary finishes, and a reimagined layout breathing new life into this already well loved Leicester establishment. Locals enter The Hansom Cab directly from the main high street into a spacious, open-plan bar area. A long bar servery runs along the left hand side, providing ample serving space, while a mix of low, mid, and high-level seating creates a welcoming and flexible environment. The interior will also feature a new pool table and state of the art darts area, making it a popular social spot. Toward the rear of the pub are modernised toilets and access to an enclosed courtyard garden, offering additional outdoor seating.

Trading Style

At The Hansom Cab, a lively rhythm throughout the week is essential to driving trade and footfall. Our goal is to keep the atmosphere buzzing from day to night, with customer-focused activities that appeal to everyone. Daytimes will see plenty of fun and interactive entertainment from bingo and music quizzes to our state of the art Karaoke Wall, available for locals to enjoy at any time. As the week rolls into the weekend, the energy steps up with DJs and live acts creating the perfect evening vibe. Alongside the entertainment, customers can enjoy a wide and varied drinks selection featuring top-quality products, weekly promotions, and exciting monthly deals; always offering great value and something new to try. At Proper Pubs, we believe in making a positive impact. The Hansom Cab will continue to be a place where everyone feels welcome, entertained, and part of the community
