Turn-key trading cafe with equipment included and evening expansion potential.
Prime Church Street location with harbour views and high tourist footfall
This leasehold café occupies a prime Church Street spot in busy Falmouth, a popular holiday and university town. The premises were fully refurbished under current ownership and include fixtures, fittings and commercial equipment, so a new operator can trade immediately. The layout includes a front dining area with harbour glimpses, rear seating and a basement kitchen; seating covers roughly 24 customers.
Trading history shows an annual turnover around £100,000 and strong local and tourist footfall, with clear potential to extend hours into evenings during peak season. Rent is £16,800pa and business rates are currently zero, which supports cashflow for a new owner. The open-plan rustic interior, timber flooring and vintage storefront suit a community-focused café concept.
Important lease and condition facts: only three years remain on the lease (original seven-year term), which is likely to prevent most buyers from obtaining a mortgage and will restrict saleability. Prospective purchasers should plan for lease renegotiation or consent from the landlord. The building is pre-1900 with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and electric storage heating; the EPC is rated E. Crime levels are above average in the area, which may affect insurance premiums and staffing considerations.
This is a hands-on, turn-key opportunity for an owner-operator or investor able to manage lease risk. The business suits someone wanting immediate trade, with scope to increase income by expanding opening hours and marketing to evening visitors during the tourist season.
