30 Cover Tea Room in Coastal Location

CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market a beautiful tea room. The business was established in the 1970’s but was taken over by our client in 2012. Our client is now looking to sell the business due to the desire to focus on other business interests. The owner runs the business as a traditional tea room selling a selection of great homemade foods this includes snacks and cakes. The business reports a healthy turnover of around £115,000 per annum with a gross profit of 65%. The tea room currently closes at 5:30pm most days in the summer. The opening hours should be longer and the purchaser should look into opening in the evenings. The tea room boasts a large 30 cover premise with fantastic décor. This is a dog friendly tea room, which is highly talked about on review sites such as TripAdvisor. The business has nothing but excellent reviews online. We feel the business could benefit from a website. A website would increase the knowledge of the tea room and should even boost the amount of tourist attention. Free social media such as Facebook would also attract further custom. The business receives great local support from other businesses in the area, this also includes the many caravan sites. We are advised that staff run the business 75% of the time which is great for a purchaser looking for this type of business with experienced hard working staff. If the buyer was to look at running and working at the business, there would be a decrease in staff wage bills; therefore a higher gross profit figure. CoGoGo highly advise early viewing to avoid missing out on this profitable coastal tea rooms.
