The J D Wetherspoon’s pub in the town centre was advertised for sale in April and was previously put on the market three years ago.
When the popular local hospitality venue was put up for sale again this year the company stated it would remain open until a buyer could be found.
The pub opened at Wick’s former post office in May 2003 and is named after the Watten-born inventor of the electric clock who lived from 1810 to 1877.
