The Plough Inn is a charming 18th-century village pub located in the heart of Croft, just three miles north of Warrington. It is ideally situated between Liverpool and Manchester, benefiting from excellent transport links, being only one mile from the M6/M62 junction. This prime location allows it to attract customers from Warrington and the surrounding villages along the motorway network.
The pub offers a welcoming atmosphere with traditional features complemented by modern amenities. Inside, the property includes a large, well-appointed catering kitchen that has been recently developed and fully equipped to a high standard, making it suitable for a quality food-led operation.
Externally, the pub features a large car park with space for approximately 30 vehicles, a spacious beer garden with a well-equipped children’s play area, and an attractive rear patio that provides delightful views across the surrounding countryside.
The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a WC, and a bathroom.
The Plough Inn operates as a traditional two-room pub, featuring a lively locals’ bar and a 40-cover dining area, both served by a central bar servery. The dining space has a contemporary feel and offers freshly prepared, homemade food. It is divided into two distinct areas, with the rear section providing a quieter, more relaxed setting away from the busier bar area.
The popular bar, though compact, delivers strong wet sales, supported by an excellent range of cask ales and regular weekly quiz nights that draw a loyal local following. During the warmer months, the extensive outdoor spaces, including the garden, patio, and children’s play area, become a major attraction, transforming the pub’s appeal into more of a destination venue for families and visitors alike.
The ideal applicant will be an experienced food-led operator, confident in managing and working within a busy kitchen environment. A proven track record in running a successful community pub would be highly advantageous, helping to maintain the popularity of the bar and ensure a well-balanced and profitable wet and dry trade.
