Le Café Coull is a turnkey, well-equipped café on Buckie High Street, ready for a hands-on owner-operator. The bright, fully glazed frontage and 54 covers provide high visibility and straightforward footfall from the town centre and nearby tourist routes. The kitchen and service areas are modern, with commercial appliances included, allowing immediate trading with minimal capital outlay.
The business has traded since 2011, currently open seven days with strong year-round turnover and an attractive net profit. The property was renovated and rewired in 2011, with a new boiler fitted in 2017, and benefits from gas central heating and good utility services. There is on-street parking directly outside and public car parks a short walk away.
Potential buyers should note the local area’s high relative deprivation, which can affect spend levels despite tourist traffic. The café’s simple trading model suits first-time buyers, but the operation depends on an active owner; staffing or absentee ownership would require changes. There is scope to grow turnover by extending evening hours or expanding takeaway services.
Full accounts will be provided after viewing to qualified parties. The freehold sale includes trade contents per inventory; stock is extra at valuation. The owner is selling to reduce work commitments, offering a rare opportunity to acquire an established, walk-in café business in a prominent seaside town.
