Hungerford, United Kingdom Honesty Group Full time

The Crown and Garter is situated in Inkpen near Hungerford. Its location is rural and it benefits from a picturesque setting. The premises date back to the 1640s when it operated as a coaching inn. The hotel rooms are later additions but are well presented from the outside and look out over a pretty courtyard garden. They are designed and decorated to a high specification as it is the whole of the pub. The premises sit in the centre of the village, which is one of the largest in the country. The current owner bought it in 2013 and after an extensive refurbishment and rebuild it opened its doors in its current guise in September 2014. What provides some of the charm of the business, its remote location, also adds to the challenge with regard to its operation, in that to a large degree it is a destination spot. The locals do use the restaurant and the bar and there is much scope to build on their patronage. It is considered to be a valued part of the community. 

The challenge of the task is not to turn the business around, as to say so would imply that there is not much positive about the business, and this would do it an injustice. The challenge is really to make the most out of this beautiful asset and make it a place that sets it apart from other rural country inns. 

This is an exciting job for anyone passionate about the food and beverage industry mainly because the right candidate will have autonomy to achieve what is required and you will have the full support of the Honesty management team. The only proviso is that Honesty’s philosophy and ethos, and these run through the whole business continue to do so. Otherwise everything is up for grabs and there are no ideas and suggestions that are off the table.
