The Queens Head is situated in a residential area of Gosport.

It has massive curb appeal due to the black and white exterior and the old-style brewery-type signage, which we will be keeping post-investment. The pub has undergone a full internal investment, making it a new Pub within the Craft Union portfolio. We have a great sporting area including 3 darts boards and a pool table and a large internal screen for fantastic viewing.

The pub is ready to be put back to the heart of the community it has served for so many years.

The pub also boasts a large beer garden to the rear and a car park to the front.

The pub is in the middle of a residential area of Gosport, so has lots of chimney pots around to attract customers from to the Pub. Gosport itself is a town of some 82,000 people, situated to the west of Portsmouth.
