Popular Cafe in Leicester For Sale

Hilton Smythe is delighted to welcome to the market this well-established and popular café business in Leicester, Leicestershire. The business was established in 1980 and has been in our clients` careful ownership since 2006. Only now is the business being offered to the market due to our clients` desire for a well-deserved retirement. The business is open 6 days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £67,600 per annum, with a gross profit of approximately 65%. Our clients offer a wide variety of fayre including all-day breakfasts, hot and cold sandwiches, burgers, curry, chilli con carne and jacket potatoes to name a few, as well as a selection of hot and cold beverages. The property is presented to a very high standard throughout and boasts 34 covers, as well as a commercial kitchen area. The business has an excellent reputation within the area for the high quality of food and service available, which has resulted in a loyal client base with a lot of repeat trade, as well as word of mouth referrals. We feel the turnover could be increased by extending the opening hours and trading 7 days per week, as the business is currently run at a pace to suit our client. A new owner could also introduce a delivery service within the area to local businesses, as well as branching out into corporate catering and buffet services. The business would also benefit from a small marketing campaign to promote the business and services offered. This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner, perhaps a husband and wife team, to take this already thriving business to the next level; therefore early viewing is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

The business is owner run and managed with 1 x staff member.

The business is open: Tuesday – Saturday: 8.00am – 1.00pmSunday - Monday: Closed
