Our Property Management Service: The Aegian Bar and Grill on Newland Avenue, Hull
“Welcome to Aegean Taverna where we hope you will have a great time and enjoy good traditional Greek cooking. A Taverna is an integral part of Greek culture. Usually a small Greek Restaurant by tradition, similar to a Tavern where Greeks of all walks of life can go with their families, children or friends and enjoy a good home cooked hearty meal.”
Well the last year or so certainly have not been easy on the hospitality sector – this new restaurant should have been open in early 2020 but instead everything went on hold early Summer!
Our new tenant, Simon, started to rent the property from us in January 2020- the timing could not have been worse for him or ourselves. However, as our communities slowly started to unwrap from this terrible pandemic, work resumed on refurbishing this property on the corner of Newland Avenue in Hull. As we are a property management team in Hull, we were able to help Simon during this challenging time to overcome the obstacles of that would otherwise have been thrown up by dealing with multiple contractors and furloughed companies.
Pools Corner
The new Aegean Taverna occupies the building of the once locally famous Pools Corner which was, in it’s heyday a very popular second hand shop. This veritable emporium sold everything from audio equipment to bicycles, lawn mowers to video consoles and reached local legendary status along side the likes of The Adelphi music venue, Sunday lunchtimes at the Piper Club and going to the Tower (for an hour). Prior to Pools Corner the building was occupied by an equally legendary local icon named Les Turner’s that sold supermarket goods as well as seasonal items like Christmas decorations well before Halloween (he was ahead of his time…).
