With an eight-year lease at an initial annual rental of £40,000 the refurbished premises will comprise of two bars – one operated by OGV Taprooms and the second by CASC which is expanding its offering currently available at its Merchant Quarter Bar.

Lisa Cowie, DM Hall commercial property agent who oversaw the transaction, said: “At a time when there is considerable pressure on the licensed sector which has resulted in the closure of many well-known, and in some cases long standing Aberdeen establishments, this is a positive news story for the city.

“Having seen OGVs plans for the premises and the speed with which it is undertaking its extensive fit out, I have no doubt that the new offering will prove as popular with a new generation as previous offerings on this site have been in the past.”
