The subjects are situated in an excellent trading position on Candleriggs, within the heart of the Merchant City. Merchant City itself now provides a prime licensed and residential area, serving the city centre. The premises lie only approximately 5-10 minutes’ walk from George Square, Queen Street Station and Buchanan Street, the prime retailing thoroughfare of the city centre. Significant new development has taken place in the immediate vicinity. This includes the £90 million Strathclyde University Technology and Innovation Headquarters and the new Drum and Stamford Property Investment on the site immediately opposite the subjects, which is planned for an approximately 850,000 sq. ft. development of a residential, student, hotel and commercial space. There is no doubt that this is a prime trading location within the city centre for a bar/restaurant.
