Knobbly Cob is a popular cafe bar/sandwich deli with an authentic feel and has great reviews on both Trip Advisor and Facebook, together with a website which can be found at,

This is an exceptionally well known and established business having a regular repeat client base. However, we believe it still has much potential for future growth and to be taken to next level.

There is scope for longer hours including Sunday opening, evening opening for parties and events, more advertising, an updated website and an extension to the outside catering, to include more parties and events further afield.

The business also has lots of space on the second and third floors which could offer many uses.

The owner would love to do all this, however with other business commitments, just doesn’t have the time, but would be happy to pass his thoughts and ideas along.

An internal inspection is very highly recommended to appreciate the space and potential on offer, to grow this business into the future.

The business is currently run by 2 full time and 6 part time members of staff, with occasional help from the owner.

Monday to Saturday 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Sunday Closed
