London-centred premium pub and dining group, Urban Pubs & Bars, is celebrating its tenth anniversary today with drinks at 2014 prices.
The leisure group, which operates 42 pubs, bars, and restaurants, and employs more than 1,000 people, is the biggest independent pub group in London.
Earlier this year Urban Pubs & Bars (UPB) announced group EBITDA of £6.4m for the financial year ended April 30th, an improvement of 11% versus the prior year.
The group of ever expanding pubs and restaurants saw like-for-like sales increase by 17% and turnover rise by almost 60% to £52.2m.
To celebrate the company’s milestone success, today drinks are being slashed to prices from ten years ago, approximately half price. All sites will also be throwing all-day parties with music, fashion, and games from 2014.
Founder Malc Heap said: “We are so proud of the incredible success of Urban Pubs and Bars. It is a real London success story and has been driven by focusing on the needs of local consumers.
“Customers returned to the company’s pubs quickly following Covid and the ensuing cost of living crisis because these pubs cater to their local communities.
“UPB is the biggest independent pub company in London, each site has an empowered management team running the venue like they own it, which ensures individual pubs are loved by customers and never feel like faceless pub chains. We raise a glass, at 2014 prices, to the the next decade of success.”
