Features and description
The riverside town of Stourport-on-Severn of course stands on Britain’s largest river from which the town takes its name. It stands on the edge of the Wyre Forest in north-west Worcestershire and is a thriving community with a population of 20,653. Historically it was a port and the terminus of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal where it met the Birmingham Canal linking with the river via a number of locks. It is now in part a dormitory community for those working in the nearby urban towns of Kidderminster, Stourbridge and Worcester, but is also a tourist destination with many holiday parks located nearby on the banks of the Great River Severn.
The canal basin stands in the heart of the town and is its focal point. It is extensively utilised by canal enthusiasts and served by excellent facilities including parking and hospitality venues including the subject property, The Wharf. The property was converted some 10 years ago from a former warehouse originally used for unloading goods from the canal. It is now an outstanding venue with bars, restaurant, letting accommodation and excellent canalside trade patios.
The property, which is Grade II listed and dates back to 1776 has been sympathetically developed with little expense spared. It is briefly described as follows:
Trade areas
At ground floor there are three separate trading areas arranged as follows:
Reception area with desk provides access to both the restaurant and the bar. Located off the reception area is a set of ladies’ and gentlemen’s customer toilets.

There is double door access into the main area of the venue which is licensed for 300 although seats approximately 80. It is arranged on two levels and has a feature corner counter from the main servery which has antique brick frontage. The room has antique brick walls and feature vaulted ceiling. It is again, as with the restaurant, curved due to the rotunda shape of the building, has a raised stage area and dance floor with feature finger parquet flooring. There is staircase access to the mezzanine level which has boarded floor and its own bar servery. This area has seating for 30-35 customers. From the lower section of the venue there is double door access straight on to the canal wharf.
Restaurant: Currently operating as a tapas bar restaurant with display case, contemporary seating including fixed wall seating and leather upholstered roll topped dining chairs, all arranged in an interesting layout due to the rotunda style shape of the building. The room has part boarded and part tiled floor and can seat 44 diners. There are feature glazed display cabinets and a galley kitchen behind which is utilised for dispensing the tapas, although it stands immediately adjacent to the business’s main catering kitchen which is extremely large, has Altro nonslip flooring, fully UPVC panelled walls and a comprehensive selection of stainless steel catering effects and work surfaces.
