Paul Tallentyre
Head of Pubs Team
Since joining Davis Coffer Lyons in 2005, Paul has helped to create and develop our dedicated pub team, which has rapidly become market leader. He brought with him 10 years of specialist licensed experience working in the UK leisure market and also has specialist knowledge within the retail and hotel industry having previously worked for a nationwide leisure practice. He specialises in advising operators, landlords and tenants across the sector on acquisitions and disposals.
Widely recognised as an expert within the pub market, Paul’s talent for spotting trends and conditions affecting operators and landlords is reflected by his impressive client list. Along with corporate transactions, he and the team have acted for single and multiple operators on a substantial amount of private individual deals throughout the UK. Over the last 18 months he has advised and acted on a number of high profile deals including the disposal of seven public houses worth £15m for Blockilmartin, the disposal of the Bel & Dragon portfolio worth £8.75m for Regents Inn, and the acquisition of All Bar One on Paddington Street on behalf of La Vina. He has also recently been instructed to dispose of a 100 pub portfolio worth circa £40m on behalf of Pubfolio.
