Hilton Smythe are pleased to welcome to the market the Whistlestop Cafe, owned by our client since 2003 and established at the station in 1998. Now for sale to the market due to our clients wish to semi retire. The business offers a full range of breakfasts, all available to add extras too if extra hungry in the morning. Classic cafe specials such as hotdogs, sausage and chips, pies, omelettes, burgers, jacket potatoes, freshly made sandwiches to orders, baguettes, toasties as well as a range of hot and cold drinks. All the menu is available to eat in or takeaway. The business is very popular with local business people, builders, and commuters. There is no deliveries from the business at the moment; this would be a great bonus to the already healthy turnover. The business enjoys an excellent reputation and even though there is no website enjoys good reviews on Facebook. Currently only serving breakfasts and lunches, there is scope to add later menu options, open Sundays and use the kitchen for any outside catering orders. The business is a turn key opportunity, currently only run part time by our client which allows any new owner to increase turnover and current profit levels.
