Pubs of Glasgow: Two popular traditional old-school Glaswegian pubs listed for sale

Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co is are bringing to the market Best Cellars Ltd, a portfolio of four traditional pubs situated across Glasgow and just outside of the city.

The four licensed venues are available as a package or separately. They include:

• The Vogue – Rutherglen
• The Old Quarry Bar – Rutherglen
• The Blackbull – Glasgow (City)
• Brechins Bar – Govan

Prominently positioned on the Main Street in Rutherglen, The Vogue Bar is a traditional bar and lounge, and could be considered the busiest and best known of the venues. The Old Quarry is another well-established pub located again in Rutherglen, occupying the ground floor of a tenement property.

The Blackbull is centrally located on Glasgow’s oldest road, High Street, whilst Brechin’s Bar is positioned in Govan, close to the underground and within walking distance from Ibrox Stadium.  

Brian Sheldon, Regional Director and Tony Spence, Associate Director at Christie & Co are jointly handling the sale.

Brian Sheldon, comments “Due to the current owner’s retirement, these four Glasgow public houses have been made available for sale either as a package, individually or any part thereof. The sites have been owned and operated as managed public houses for many years and are all currently freehold with individual managers in situ.

“They are being sold as going concerns and will be of interest to individual and regional multiple operators who are looking to add considerable barrelage to their existing stock. The public house sector, whilst facing challenges from various quarters, remains resilient, with some faring better than others depending on location and style of operation.”
