Refurbished café/takeaway opposite university — owner-operator potential with immediate footfall and dark-kitchen income.
- Prime city-centre location opposite university and college
- Recently extensively refurbished; modern presentation throughout
- Seats approximately 30 covers; double-fronted lock-up unit
- Trades three streams: restaurant, takeaway and dark kitchen
- Currently fully staff-run — owner-operator can reduce payroll costs
- Small footprint (~313 sq ft) limits expansion and storage
- Very high local crime rate; security and insurance considerations
- Electric room heaters and assumed uninsulated stone walls
A compact, recently refurbished cafe/restaurant and dark-kitchen set in a prime city-centre pitch opposite the university and college. The double-fronted unit seats about 30 customers and includes a commercial kitchen, counter servery, dry store and a disabled-access WC. The business model currently operates three income streams (dine-in, takeaway, dark kitchen) from the same premises.
The operation is fully staffed by the current owner, creating clear upside for a hands-on owner-operator to reduce wage overhead and improve margins. The premises are held on a secure lease with a rent described as reasonable for this trading position, and the unit benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and an EPC rating of B.
Buyers should note the property is small (circa 313 sq ft) and located in a deprived area with a very high local crime rate—factors that affect running costs, insurance and security needs. Heating is electric room heaters and the building’s stone walls are assumed to have no insulation, which could increase energy costs despite the modern refurbishment. The leasehold tenure means buyers must review lease terms and any service obligations before committing.
