Location

The premises are located on a disused platform beneath the Ticket Office on the eastern side of the station closest to the city centre.
The platform is accessed by a magnificent gated staircase which will be equipped with a stairlift to allow access for all. The platform edge will be fenced to keep the premises wholly separate from the railway.

The premises consist of a main kitchen & storage area, reception/bar, accessible WC, a large internal seating area and space for external seating.
The premises will be presented in shell condition ready for tenant fit out with power, water and drainage. The premises benefit from several period features.

We expect the premises to be available for tenant fit out in Summer 2025.

 

An Agreement to Lease and tripartite lease for 9 or 12 years is being offered and will be subject to a landlord’s break on six months’ notice or 28 days in case of urgent station works. The lease will be excluded from the security of tenure provisions of the 1954 Landlord & Tenant Act. Standard Railway Lease Terms will apply. The incoming tenant will be expected to pay approximately £2,500 plus VAT for landlord and superior landlords costs associated with the grant of this lease.

 

We are inviting offers of a Minimum Guaranteed Rent with a turnover based top-up rent.
A reasonable rent free period will be allowed in respect of the fit out period.

We are seeking an experienced casual dining tenant to operate a high quality destination restaurant.
The Station already boasts the Tite & Locke public house and a Costa Coffee.
