Shop and Restaurant Short Leases for Five Years or Less

Most retail and restaurant businesses occupy their premises under a Lease. A Lease gives the Tenant exclusive use of the premises for a specified term, subject to the Tenant paying the rent and complying with the provisions of the Lease.

This subfolder of Short Lease Agreements contains a selection of templates for less than 5 year lettings of retail or restaurant premises. There are Leases of part (with service charge) and Leases of whole. All of the Leases contain detailed provisions as to what a tenant must and must not do during the term. These provisions aim to protect the value of the Landlord’s reversionary interest in the premises.

Some of the Leases are “Code Compliant”, meaning their provisions comply with the Code for Leasing Business Premises in England and Wales 2007. The Code aims to promote efficiency and fairness in Landlord and Tenant relationships.
