Hilton Smythe are pleased to have been given the opportunity to manage the sale of a well-established Coffee Shop / Restaurant with a renowned reputation amongst local residents. This is a superb opportunity to take on a popular, profitable and well used local business in an area teeming with customers.

There has been a food based business at this site for many years. The current owner has been running it for the last eight years and the business has been a real labour of love for her accruing an impressive number of regular customers and an unrivalled reputation.

This wonderful business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart only due to the vendors need to concentrate on her other businesses, she is keen to see her beloved coffee shop cum restaurant pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner(s) who can take this already thriving business to the next level.

The business is a Mediterranean Restaurant which prides itself on its ability to whisk their customers off to sunnier climes with its authentic dishes. The business offers a varied menu with its meals being lovingly and carefully prepared on the premises using local ingredients and seasonal products wherever possible. A sample menu includes;

  • Pittas
  • Salads
  • Loaded Fries
  • Feta Sto Fourno
  • Beef Stifado
  • Moussaka
  • Vegetarian Options
  • Platter Boards
  • Kids menus
  • Desserts
  • Wines Beers and Sprits
  • Coffees, Teas and Soft Drinks
  • Freshly baked Cakes including a Cake of the Day
  • Gluten free options
The business is dog and family friendly, fully licensed and offers free Wi-Fi. The business is proud of its 5 star hygiene rating.

The sale will include the company website and Facebook and Instagram pages and the business enjoys great visibility on the internet along with impressive reviews such as;

“Food freshly cooked and OMG it tastes incredible”

  • Ideal owner managed or partnership business
