Hilton Smythe welcomes to the market Café Scrumptious, which was established in 2012 and owned by our client, who is now looking to spend more time with the family, since 2014.
Café Scrumptious is a dog friendly 50 seater traditional café that is open for breakfast, lunch and into the afternoon for teas, coffees, cakes, scones etc. The Café prides itself on the home cooked food it serves which brings in many repeat customers, both local and from further afield.
The café has many impressive reviews and is rated 4.5*/5 on TripAdvisor, 5*/5 on Yell and 4.9*/5 on its very own Facebook page.
The owner increased the prices and adjusted the menu in September 2019 and immediately saw a jump in average weekly takings from circa £1300 per week to circa £1650 per week. However, there is still room for development as the prices are still very fair in comparison to other local cafes and prices could be increased further.
Other ways of increasing income would be to:
• Create a website
• Look at layout and add further tables to increase seating capacity
• Local advertising – leaflets
• Longer opening hours
Hilton Smythe highly advise early viewing to avoid disappointment.
The business is run and managed by our client, with the help of 2 part time members of staff.
