Fate of Blackpool Wetherspoons revealed

32 pubs for sale

Pub chain JD Wetherspoon who currently operate 3 Blackpool Wetherspoons pubs and 5 more across the Fylde Coast has announced that 32 of it’s sites nationally are up for sale.

The portfolio comprised of 22 leasehold and 10 freehold venues has been put up for sale via Estate agents Savile’s and CBRE. It’s hoped that these units will sell as smaller lots or a full portfolio. All are based in town or city centres but thankfully NONE are Blackpool Wetherspoons pubs.

Toby Hall, senior director at CBRE, said: “The excellent mix of locations in this portfolio is rarely seen in the market.
