Seafront Coffee Shop Bar & Bistro With Adjoining Confectionery Shop For Sale

Business description

Fully furnished and equiped available as a whole or individually............Our clients have owned the business for the last 4 years and the restaurant is operated by a single proprietor with staff, if and when required. The business opens 7 days a week during the busy high season. With 72% food sales, this is a high volume and profitable catering business.

New pizza ovens provide a good pizza table and takeaway element to the business and the cafe also provides coffees, teas, light snacks, lunches, afternoon teas and beverages. We are advised the turnover from the cafeteria part of the business is in the region of £130,000 pa.

Adjoining the shop and approached from the cafe via an archway is the main sweet shop which was refurbished last year, selling ice cream and alcohol including cider, fudge, sweets, sticks of rock and now providing an income in the region of £50,000 turnover pa.

Accounts will be made available to those seriously interested parties who have inspected the premises. This is a unique continental-style cafeteria and modern well presented sweet shop worthy of your immediate inspection.

There are also proposals for a cross Channel daily link via the Bristol Channel to South Wales increasing the number of day trippers to the town.
