The Pub and Bar Business Plan Toolkit

Hope isn't a business model.

In this practical guide, hospitality accountant and former landlord David Burr shares everything you need to plan, fund and run a profitable pub or bar - from choosing the right legal structure and negotiating leases to mastering your numbers, managing risk, and preparing for growth.

• Steady your cashflow and avoid costly mistakes

• Understand P&L and cash forecasts

• Present confidently to banks, pubcos and landlords
