So, what would you do with The Engine House to drive forward their High Street Pub concept?
The area:
The Engine House sits in a prime city-centre position on Queen Street, Exeter, directly opposite Exeter Central Station and a short walk from the university, major employers and the high street. Exeter’s a lively, historic city with a strong mix of students, commuters, tourists and professionals.
The pub is surrounded by bars, restaurants and hotels, benefiting from excellent visibility and footfall throughout the day and into the evening.
Demographics:
Within a 10-minute walk there are around 7,000 adults, increasing to over 31,000 within 20 minutes. The area over-indexes for young adults and students, particularly those aged 18-34, as well as midlife professionals working in the city.
Affluence levels are around the national average, but disposable income is high among students and young professionals, with strong spend across food, drinks and late-night entertainment.
The customer mix is heavily weighted towards Young and Midlife Carefree segments - those looking for lively, social experiences in high-energy settings.
The offer:
You can drive trade through a mix of live music, events and late-night entertainment, making full use of the pub’s late licence.
They are also really interested to hear your ideas on how to drive trade.
