Well established café with 70+ covers for sale

Please quote reference B05976

Hilton Smythe are delighted to offer to the market Café Incontro, an extremely well-established café located in the heart of Keighley. The Café has been ran by our clients for the last 15 years and is now being offered to the market as our clients are wishing to retire. At the time of instruction, the business went a complete refurbishment in July 2019.

Café Incontro is situated within an attractive, corner positioned premises providing seating area with 72+ covers (60 internal and 12 external) and a commercial kitchen.

The café currently offers a menu of specialists’ coffee and tea, light lunches, jacket potatoes, salads, paninis, toasties, sandwiches, and desserts. Currently, the business doesnt offer any fried products. A new owner could look to introduce this, if they desire. 

Café Incontro has an excellent 5-star review status on Google and trip advisor with customers stating, ‘Food was beautiful, and service was excellent’ and ‘Always a busy place. The food is always freshly made for you and very tasty. Staff are very friendly nothing is too much trouble. We'll worth a visit.’

The current owners are offering a hand over period to introduce the purchaser to the regular customers and keep up the fantastic reputation the café already has.

At present, our client doesn’t advertise, the custom comes from passing shoppers, office staff located in the offices surrounding the café, regular customers and word of mouth recommendations. There is plenty of scope to improve turnover such as pushing the outside catering side, using social media, advertising, and leaflet dropping. Also, to increase the custom if desired there are options to utilize marketing websites such as just eat, hungry house etc. The business could also be opened on Sunday's and the introduction of fried products would further increase the turnover. 

We feel this business would suit a partnership, to push the already thriving business to the next level.
