About the Business
About the Business
Established in 2015, this charming and well-known café has built a loyal customer base and an outstanding reputation within the local community. Recently recognised as Winner – Brisbane’s Best Café 2023, the business enjoys strong repeat patronage and steady daily foot traffic.
The café offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, making it a favourite for locals and visitors alike — whether dining in or grabbing takeaway.
40 to 50 kg of coffee used per week, with only 6 1/2 hours per day operational hours currently. 6am - 12.30pm
The current owner operates in a predominantly strategic and oversight capacity rather than being involved in daily service operations. In fact, throughout 2026 to date, the owner has contributed only 29 hands on hours to the business, demonstrating that the café runs smoothly under its established systems and team structure.
This presents a substantial opportunity for a new owner-operator to become more hands-on in the day-to-day running of the café and significantly reduce wage costs. A hands on owner could reduce the wages by 30 to 40 hours a week thereby increasing overall profitability $1000 per week. Alternatively, it remains an attractive option for an investor seeking a well-managed, low-involvement business that has great potential for more hours, lunch and early dinner trade.

Why This Business?
This is a genuine walk-in, walk-out opportunity for an experienced operator or first-time café owner seeking a proven business with strong foundations and an excellent community reputation.
With established systems, loyal clientele, and minimal current owner involvement, the business is perfectly positioned for either:
• A hands-on owner-operator looking to increase profits by reducing wage costs and driving growth;
or
• An investor seeking a well-structured, low-touch hospitality asset.
Opportunities of this calibre, in this location, and with this level of recognition are rarely offered to market.
