CoGoGo is pleased to welcome to the market Gudea Coffee House, Nestled in a welcoming community, this business has been brewing up success since the current owners took over on 1st June. With a strong turnover and impressive net profit, this is a perfect opportunity for anyone looking to step into a ready-made venture where the hard work has already been done – all that’s left is to bring your own flair (and maybe a new cake recipe or two).
This is more than just a coffee shop – it’s a delicious little destination. Customers come for the expertly brewed hot and cold drinks, from rich, velvety lattes to refreshing iced coffees, but they stay for the treats. On the counter, you’ll find irresistible slices of tiramisu, indulgent cakes, fresh bakes, and tempting pastries. The savoury offering is just as popular, with paninis, toasties, and light bites served fresh to order – perfect for a quick lunch or a leisurely nibble.
The atmosphere is relaxed yet vibrant, making it equally appealing to morning commuters grabbing a cappuccino, friends catching up over a flat white and cake, or remote workers setting up for the afternoon with a panini and a pot of tea. With everything prepared and served with a smile, this is a coffee shop with character – and customers love it.
There’s still huge scope to put your own stamp on the menu, whether that’s introducing seasonal specials, experimenting with vegan and gluten-free options, or hosting themed evenings. The only reason for sale is that the owners are getting married and moving away – a bittersweet change for them, but a perfect opening for you.
The coffee shop is located in the vibrant Woodlands area of Glasgow – a lively, character-packed neighbourhood that blends a relaxed community vibe with the buzz of city life. Just a short walk from Glasgow’s West End, it benefits from a diverse mix of customers, including students, professionals, creatives, and long-time locals.
The area is known for its leafy streets, independent shops, and eclectic dining scene, meaning footfall is consistently strong throughout the week. Being close to key transport links, including bus routes and subway stations, makes it easily accessible for commuters and visitors alike.
Woodlands is a place where people linger – whether they’re popping in for a morning coffee before work, meeting friends for a weekend brunch, or taking a break from exploring nearby Kelvingrove Park. With its prime position in such a well-loved and well-connected area, this coffee shop has a constant stream of potential customers right on its doorstep.
The shop is designed for both efficiency and comfort, making it a joy to run and a pleasure to visit. Inside, there’s a well-organised preparation area fully equipped for crafting barista-quality drinks and freshly made food. From the gleaming coffee machine to the neatly arranged workspace for preparing paninis, toasties, and bakes, everything is set up to keep service smooth and customers happy.
Front and centre are the display cabinets – a mouth-watering showcase of cakes, pastries, tiramisu, and other freshly baked delights. Their tempting presence not only encourages impulse purchases but also adds to the inviting, artisan feel of the shop.
The seating area is warm and inviting, with tables arranged to cater for both individuals and groups. Whether customers are enjoying a quiet moment with a cappuccino and tiramisu, or meeting friends for lunch, the layout encourages them to settle in and stay a while. The décor blends modern touches with a cosy atmosphere, creating a space that feels special without being pretentious.
Large front windows allow in plenty of natural light, giving the shop a bright, airy feel while also showcasing the tempting display of cakes and treats to passers-by. The frontage offers strong visual appeal, drawing in curious customers from the street. Every element of the premises has been designed to make the most of the space – from the practical flow for staff to the welcoming environment for guests.
