Charming village pub in Hertfordshire acquired by new owners

The beautifully restored Grade II listed pub features bar and dining areas set across two floors, blending characterful period details and traditional country charm with stylish contemporary finishes and modern hospitality.

It also offers a generous beer garden and children’s play area, along with two-bedroom owner’s accommodation, making it a popular destination for families, social gatherings, and relaxed dining experiences.

The business has been sold by owner Ebe Bonner, who commented, “I’m delighted to be handing over The Brewery Tap to local operators who share a genuine passion for the pub. It has been a privilege to restore and develop the business, and I’m confident it will continue to thrive and remain a valued part of the community under its new ownership.”

The property has been purchased by local buyers Andrew Powell and Max King, who are looking forward to building on its strong reputation. Andrew Powell said, “We are thrilled to be taking on The Brewery Tap. As locals, it’s a fantastic opportunity to bring fresh energy while respecting everything that makes the pub special. We look forward to welcoming existing customers and introducing some new ideas to give the business a new lease of life.”

Liana Gatier, Business Agent – Pubs & Restaurants at Christie & Co, managed the sale process and commented, “Following strong levels of interest, it was important to secure the right operator - someone who not only recognised the potential of the business but could also meet the timescales Ebe was working to. We’re delighted to have completed the sale to local buyers who are well-placed to carry the business forward.”
