Hilton Smythe are delighted to present to the market Lazy Peach, a recently refurbished cafe bar with a 7-day alcohol licence and unique, contemporary interior allowing any new buyer the ability to walk straight in and carry on trading.
Currently the business is run to suit due to health reasons and we believe the quality of the equipment installed would allow for many additional menu options not currently being offered.

The current menu comes with an ethical and Asian led menu offering the following:
- Asian Fusion food.
- Brunch.
- Loose Leaf Teas.
- Coffees.
- Beers, Cocktails & Wine.
- Fresh juices.
- Gifts.
- Events venue.
- Catering.
Our client had previously added pop up menu evenings, inviting small groups for tastings, cocktails and product launches.
We would recommend any new buyer further develop the involvement of the diverse community by adding any of the following:
- Reading/ Knitting groups.
- Kim Shi workshops.
- Pilates/ Yoga classes.
- Supper clubs.
- Karaoke parties.
- Baby shower/ Hen party gatherings.
- Private birthday parties.
- More local artist launch events.
- Pop up set menu evenings.
- Meeting space.
- Cocktail making classes.
We are advised our client will offer a full business handover to allow a smooth transition to any new owner.
Very rarely do cafes/ bistro spaces in this area of this high standard come onto the open market and we therefore strongly advise early viewing to avoid disappointment.
The business is run on a part time basis by our client with 1 x full time manager in place and 2 x part time members of the team.
Currently run to suit, the business operates on limited opening hours -
MONDAY - TUESDAY: 11.00am to 4.00pm
WEDNESDAY - SATURDAY: 12.00pm to 10.00pm
SUNDAY: 12.00pm to 5.00pm
