TRADE - The Windsor Castle is a well-known and popular venue which has the ability to appeal to a very wide cross-section of custom from young to old; drinkers to diners with private parties and residential letting accommodation on top. In respect of sales, in the year ended 30th September 2022, the pub recorded sales of £454,900 net of VAT with a Gross Profit margin of 65%. These figures do not include any free-trade or mail order sales from the Printworks Brewery.

THE WINDSOR CASTLE - The deceptively large ground floor trading space is really in five distinct parts, albeit all inter-linked and flowing seamlessly. The main Bar area is at the heart and has a flagstone floor, timber bar servery, high tables and resident piano. The different rooms have boarded or tiled floors, pew bench seating and a Victorian style fireplace. All areas are full of character and charm and together seat around 90 whilst still leaving plenty of standing room.

Serving this is a well-fitted trade kitchen and adjacent preparation/freezer room. First Floor - a very clever more recent conversion is The Gin Room - ideal for small parties; gin and cocktail tasting or as an overspill. Customer toilets are also at this level, as are a series of four separate offices and a laundry room / kitchen.

LETTING ROOMS also at first floor, and accessed from the side. All 4 rooms are double or twin sized with two being ensuite and the other two each having their own private shower room.

BEER STORES the chilled beer stores are at ground floor level immediately to the rear of the bar servery.

OFFICES also at first floor above Hardwicke's Bar with separate access.

THE PRINTWORKS BREWERY - Previously the historic Sadler's Brewery, the production plant which lies immediately to the rear of the pub, was rebranded as Printworks Brewery in 2019. Including brewing, fermenting and cold rooms, the brewery has a capacity of 60 brewers barrels per week.

NB: The brewery building can be either included or excluded from any sale or letting, as can the brewing equipment.

The property comprises approximately 7,200 sq ft gross area (668 sq m)

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on August 3, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
