The Business:

The Midland is currently closed.  It previously traded as a sports bar which, during the day, focused on being a casual, spacious venue for food, family dining and daytime sports fixtures.  At night and at the weekends, it was transformed into a full-scale nightclub and disco venue which featured karaoke, DJ sets and live entertainment.

This is an opportunity for an experienced operator to acquire a turnkey business in a growing North Wales city.  

No trading information is available and prospective purchasers will have to reach their own conclusions as to the potential profitability of this outlet.

Location:

The Midland is located in the heart of Wrexham on the main city centre drinking circuit and is surrounded by a wide variety of retail and hospitality outlets.  The city is located between the Clwydian mountain range and the Lower Dee Valley, neighbouring the county of Cheshire.  It has a population of 61,000.

Wrexham is a busy city and includes cultural and historical treasures such as the 16th century Gothic church of St Giles and 1200 acres of National Trust land.  It is also within easy reach of Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and the charming market town of Llangollen.   In recent years, the city’s profile has been raised by the Hollywood owners of Wrexham AFC; their involvement in the club has generated lots of interest and has brought more tourists to the city.  

Wrexham is orbited by a ring road, the A525, which links to the A483.  The latter provides access to Chester and the North, and Oswestry and the South.  In addition, the B5430 connects to the A494 providing routes to North Wales coastal locations and Snowdonia National Park.
