CoGoGo welcomes to the market Cafe Retreat. Originally founded by our clients in 2010 the business is in a superb trading position, highly visible to the many shoppers and business workers passing by throughout the day.
Cafe Retreat is a contemporary styled cafe, very well presented throughout with good quality equipment and high quality furnishings. The business offers a selection of homemade breakfasts, sandwiches, paninis, baguettes, jacket potatoes, pasta dishes and a separate children’s menu with a good variety of hot and cold beverages. Cafe Retreat is in pristine condition, spotlessly clean and has been awarded the 5 star food hygiene certificate.
The business is of a substantial size offering 65 covers, with additional seating outside on the pedestrianised forecourt to the frontage attracting the heavy passing trade. There is the potential to extend the dining area into the lower ground floor currently utilised for storage if required offering the potential to also extend trading hours and perhaps open in the evenings as a bistro subject to approval and appropriate licenses to generate additional revenue.
The business genuinely comes to the market as our client wished to emigrate.
This is a profitable business offering an ideal walk in trading opportunity in a fantastic location.
