Hilton Smythe welcomes to the market The Clock Café. This family run concern was originally founded by our client in 2006 and has quickly established an excellent reputation and is very well supported by the local community. It is an ideal opportunity for a family to take over the business.
The Clock Café is spacious, light and airy providing ample dining space for 100 covers plus, with the unusual benefit of a bright conservatory recently established as a secure children’s play area, proving very popular. The café serves a diverse menu with a good choice of breakfasts, traditional home-made hot and cold meals, daily specials, burgers, sandwiches to salads and tempting desserts.
Additionally, the business benefits from an alcohol license opening the opportunity for the new owner to perhaps extend opening hours into the evening and introduce a bistro style menu to dramatically increase revenue of this already very profitable business. Certainly the business would benefit from further advertising to raise the profile of this fantastic family friendly café. Although the business does already have a user friendly website www.klwebvertiser.co.uk/the-clock-cafe.html.
This is a fantastic turn key business with the potential we believe for further development, which genuinely comes to the market as our client looks towards a well-deserved retirement.
