“City Pubs brings a portfolio of predominantly freehold pubs which are closely aligned with our estate and have a strategy of operating premium, individual and differentiated pubs and bedrooms. Sharing a similar culture, its team delivers a quality offering and the highest standard of customer service to their communities.”
