Well-known Scottish football pub goes on market as owner retires after 20 years

The Scottish Business Agency is marketing the Cottage Bar on Shettleston Road in Glasgow.

The agent said: “Shettleston Road is ideally situated just a short distance from Celtic Park, one half of Glasgow’s primary football team. This proximity brings a host of benefits to local pubs and bars, as the area becomes a hotspot on match days, drawing in fans and visitors looking for a pre- or postgame drink.”

The agent also said: “The Cottage Bar is one of a few public bars along Shettleston Road. Many often become bustling meeting points for football supporters, creating a lively and electric atmosphere. For business owners, the regular influx of football support offers a steady stream of customers, particularly on weekends and match days.

“There is potential for an owner-operator with the development potential of the lounge.”

The asking price for the freehold is £165,000.
