Business Description
Veritas Business Sales offer to the market this established Café which is located in the village of Milcote. The 5344 railway carriage was craned in 20 years ago and converted into a what you see today. The business has been in the careful hands of our client for the past 3 years and they are reluctantly offering the business for sale due to unforeseen family commitments.
Since ownership they have replaced the felt roof, redecorated and invested in new equipment along with fixtures & fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time. Milcote Café is owner operated with the help of 3 part time members of staff and for year ending 31st March 2024 turned over £116,392.. They serve cooked breakfasts, breakfast baps, toasties, jacket potatoes, homemade cakes, confectionery, teas, specialist coffees, cold drinks and ice creams.
We believe that there is potential to increase turnover by extending the opening times. They have great reviews with Tripadvisor & Facebook, 5 star ratings and Google 4.7 and have built a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such have a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase a turnkey business where all the hard work has been done which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended.
