Amber Taverns, the fast growing operator of wet led community pubs, has continued its expansion after exchanging on a site in York that was formerly part of Robert Tchenguiz’s pub empire R&L Properties.
Amber managing director James Baer told M&C Report that the company is to spend c£700,000 on acquisition and development costs at the site, a former lap dancing venue called Bohemia. It takes the estate up to 91.
Baer added that Amber has made offers on a couple of other sites.
The LGV Capital-backed company opened 11 pubs in the year to 3 February and hopes to open 12 in its current financial year.
