Shop hopes to hit the bullseye with new darts pub in Mansfield Woodhouse
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The Mansfield Cues And Darts shop, which is located at Hallam Way on the Old Mill Lane Industrial Estate, has come up with the idea.
Lee Stacey, of the shop, has submitted a planning application to Mansfield District Council for a change of use at the premises to create a licensed club room or pub.

Hide AdThe business would continue to sell high-quality darts, pool and snooker equipment and accessories for local enthusiasts. But it would also be licensed to sell alcohol and non-alcoholic drinks, opening between 10 am and 10 pm every day.


In a statement to the council, Lee says: “We anticipate a moderate, but consistent, flow of customers. The maximum number we expect at any given time would be approximately 30.
"The shop’s layout would be designed to comfortably accommodate this number, ensuring a pleasant experience without overcrowding.
"This proposed business aims to cater to the local community and to darts enthusiasts.”

Hide AdThe plan suggests the shop/pub would employ two members of staff, and there would be 12 parking spaces at the front and back of the unit.


"We believe that the establishment of a specialised darts shop and venue would be a valuable addition to the local community,” Lee concludes.
Mansfield Cues And Darts has been a big success since opening, hitting double top with some of its online reviews.
One person, Lee Howarth, posted: “Excellent prices, and the staff are spot-on.” While Jordan Clayton said: “Unbelievable amount of darts stock, and great, friendly and knowledgeable staff.”
