Don’t miss out on this fantastic chance to take over a flourishing café nestled in a picturesque courtyard in the heart of a charming town centre. This well-established café boasts a strong reputation and was awarded the prestigious TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Award for 2022. It’s a beloved local spot with tremendous potential for growth and expansion.

The café draws a loyal customer base of locals and regulars while also benefiting from high foot traffic due to its prime location. Guests can relax in the inviting outdoor seating area while enjoying a variety of refreshments, including freshly brewed Illy coffee, teas, fruit teas, lemonades, and freshly pressed juices. The café also serves a selection of alcoholic beverages, making it a great spot for any time of day.

Its menu is a true highlight, featuring homemade cakes and scones, a newly updated breakfast and lunch menu, and favourite daily specials. From hearty full English breakfasts to light sandwiches, salads, and satisfying burgers, there’s something for everyone—including vegan options. The café also offers afternoon tea, adding to its charm and appeal.

In addition to regular dining, the café offers private room hire with an option for a 3-course meal, perfect for special occasions or private events.

This business presents excellent opportunities to further increase profits by extending trading hours, hosting events or evening services, and offering more seasonal specials or themed menus. The café is also fully licensed to serve alcohol and prides itself on using locally sourced products, ensuring quality and supporting local suppliers.

With the added benefit of online ordering, this café is set up to thrive and grow, providing flexibility and convenience to customers.

This is a rare chance to acquire a profitable and well-loved business with huge potential for further development. Perfect for both experienced operators and new entrepreneurs, this café is primed for continued success.

Situated near a busy High Street in Bedfordshire, the café has a superbly fitted interior that can host 45 covers, with additional external courtyard covers available.

The premises is secure and is offered on a leasehold basis, with a valuable inventory of high-end equipment and fittings included. It is electric only with no gas.

There is ample opportunity for growth within this established café, with the current vendor only opening 6 days per week on reduced hours. There is scope for the business to be open 7 days per week, and cater to both breakfast and late evening hours as they have an alcohol license.

Additionally, the café would benefit from increased marketing strategies, and also stronger social media channels with consistent content.

This opportunity would highly suit a couple looking to purchase a successful business and run it as their main source of income.
