With five decades of niche expertise, we are the UK’s leading advisors in the leisure and hospitality sectors. From Michelin-starred restaurants to national pub portfolios, we help stakeholders maximise value through unparalleled market knowledge and placemaking.
Five Decades at the Heart of UK Hospitality
We don't just deal in property; we deal in the venues that define the UK's social fabric. For over 50 years, Davis Coffer Lyons has been the go-to specialist for the leisure sector. We understand the subtleties of a late-night license, the nuances of a restaurant lease, and the unique value of a historic pub.
Our team works exclusively with leisure property—from cafes and food retail to competitive socialising and nightclubs. No area of hospitality is left uncovered, and our deep understanding of the sector’s distinctions allows us to add real value where generalist firms cannot.
