Location Details
Located in a high foot traffic area near the heart of the city, frequented by locals and tourists.
Potential
Turnkey opportunity to acquire a thriving cafe in the heart of Sydney. Currently under management, this popular location would benefit from an owner-operator who could make it a focus, or someone who could invest in advertising to get it the full attention it deserves.
Skills
Experience in hospitality and bookkeeping is recommended, but the current owner is willing to provide training and guidance post-sale.
Hours
Open Monday through Friday, 6:30 a.m.- 4 p.m., and Saturday/Sunday, 7 a.m.- 4 p.m.
Lease
The lease expires on 27 November 2027, with an option to renew for a further 5 years.
Employees
Currently, there are 4 part-time or casual employees to cover all shifts, but most days can be managed by one person, except for the morning rush period, 8:30- 10:30 a.m., where two staff members are recommended.
Reason for Sale
The owner is looking to move outside of Sydney.
About the Business
This charming cafe has six tables (seating for 12), but most business is takeaway coffee. Popular menu items include bacon & egg on Turkish bread and homemade roast chicken wraps. The staff roast the chicken and prepare homemade sausage rolls on site, with wraps prepared fresh daily or on demand.
Pastries are bought wholesale, currently, so there is an opportunity for a bakery owner to expand sales to this location. There is no bakery in the area, and demand is high for gourmet meat pies and other fresh-baked goods that we cannot supply. The organic fair trade coffee blend used is popular with the regulars (some having frequented the cafe for 10 or more years), local professionals and office workers, tradies, as well as tourists staying at nearby hotels.
Peak business is during the spring and summer months, but the local clientele and frequent foot traffic means this cafe never has a truly quiet period.
Once potential purchasers sign an NDA, they will be given access to further details.
History
A cafe at this location has been in continuous operation for 15 years, first owned by a coffee roaster and then subsequently owned by a series of small operators. The current owner took over 1 year ago, investing in new equipment, maintenance, painting, signage, and a rebrand, which, along with a refreshed menu, doubled income throughout the year.
