The Bull is a Grade II listed pub sitting proudly in the heart of Market Deeping, Peterborough. With history stretching back to the 17th Century, it’s packed with character – from the striking 18th-century carriage arch to its central location beside the town hall and local shops. It’s long been a favourite meeting place for the community, and now it’s ready for someone new to take it to the next level.
Inside, the pub oozes atmosphere. Think black beams, a roaring fire and four distinctive spaces: a welcoming main bar, a restaurant for relaxed dining, a private dining/function room, and “The Dug Out” – a quirky, cellar bar with its own bar that guests descend into, bringing a cool, unexpected twist to this historic building.
But the real star here? The beer. The Bull is crying out for someone who loves cask ale, understands the power of great cellar management, and can build a reputation for outstanding quality and variety. With Everards brewing over 120 different beers last year alone, there’s huge scope to rotate, experiment, and create something truly special – from beer clubs and tasting nights to regulars coming together in a proper old-world pub atmosphere.
Outside, the space opens up beautifully. The courtyard has its own stables bar and sheltered seating, and beyond the carriage arch, the garden stretches into a large green with a play area for children and a versatile shelter that can be anything from an outdoor bar to a stage. It’s the perfect spot for families to enjoy a relaxed pint while the kids play, or for hosting bigger events that bring the whole town together.
What makes The Bull special:
We’re looking for someone with a strong drinks-led mindset – a true beer enthusiast who can create a warm, welcoming pub atmosphere, and put The Bull firmly on the map for excellent beer and great company.
