Fuller's pub group acquires Reigate Market Hotel

3rd February 2012, 8:45am

Fuller Smith & Turner, the London-based brewer and pub operator, has acquired The Market Hotel, an historic pub located in the centre of the Surrey town of Reigate.

The Market Hotel will be Fuller's first pub in Reigate and the company.

Managing director of Fuller's Inns, Jonathon Swaine, commented: "The Market Hotel is a grand old pub in a commanding position on the High Street in Reigate. It is right at the centre of the town and I am really looking forward to bringing the Fuller's ethos to the business and showing Reigate what a good, traditional British pub is all about.

"We will be making only small behind-the-scenes changes in the short term to bring the pub up to Fuller's standards. However there are some exciting plans in development for later in the year, including introducing a breakfast offer and making some significant changes to the pub garden, a feature which makes the pub stand out from the competition in the centre of Reigate. Watch this space."

The Market Hotel will operate in Fuller's managed division and brings the total number of pubs in the Fuller's estate to 367.
