Moonshine Bars buys Puzzle Pub from administration

The Puzzle Pub in Horseferry Road, London, has been acquired by Moonshine Bars from the administrators of the Food and Drink Group

Former Puzzle Pub Co. owners Tom and Robbie Gill bought the free-of-tie lease under their new trading company for a premium of £50k through property agents Davis Coffer Lyons and Shelley Sandzer, who represented the administrators, BDO.

The pub, which joins Moonshine Bars' Elephant on the Hill in Battersea, will now undergo an extensive refit and reopen as The Loose Box bar and kitchen this month. Moonshine Bars is now seeking additional London sites for their portfolio.
