Pub lease in Hackney sold through Christie & Co

Renowned for its modern European cuisine, made using seasonal British produce, the venue features a cosy pub area, an elegant dining space, and outdoor seating for al fresco dining. A dedicated event space accommodates private functions, and its prime corner location surrounded by local amenities enhances its appeal. Rooted in Hackney’s vibrant community, the Duke of Richmond continues to stand out as a destination within East London’s independent hospitality scene.

New lease owner, Floris Doci, said, “I’ve spent the last two years working in the management team of a pub on Liverpool Street, where I first began dreaming of opening my own pub. Taking over the Duke of Richmond is a dream come true. I want to build on its charm and create a lively, welcoming local with something for everyone - from pub quizzes on Wednesdays to DJs on Friday and Saturday nights, a new Saturday brunch, and of course, proper Sunday roasts to end the week in style.”

David Wilson, Associate Director at Christie & Co who managed the leasehold sale, said: “We are thrilled to announce the leasehold sale of the Duke of Richmond, ending our client Tom Oldroyd’s seven-year tenure at the pub. We wish the new tenant Floris Doci success with his new venture at this fantastic pub and restaurant. The sale highlights the demand for pub businesses in high footfall locations in the capital. Due to high demand, we would encourage leasehold owners of pub businesses in Greater London to get in touch for specialist marketing advice.”
