About the Business

An exceptional opportunity to secure a fully fitted hospitality venue in the heart of Melbourne’s CBD, offered on a chattels-only basis with vacant possession.

Previously trading as a restaurant, this venue is arguably far better suited to a day trade café concept, servicing the surrounding office towers, legal precinct, corporate workforce and steady weekday foot traffic.

Positioned within one of Melbourne CBD’s most active commercial precincts, the venue benefits from dual street access via Bourke Street and Little Bourke Street, providing strong visibility and convenience for both daytime and evening trade.

Key highlights include:

Prime CBD location in a high-density legal and commercial precinct
Approximately 50–60 seats
Unbeatable outdoor area with a closing roof, outdoor heating and wind barriers, allowing comfortable trade all year round
Approved liquor licence for 146 patrons (standing) until 3:00am
Fully fitted commercial kitchen, bar and service infrastructure
Vacant possession - ready to trade
Ideal café, espresso bar, lunch venue or late-night hospitality concept
Offered well below original setup cost

Given its central CBD position and the concentration of nearby office towers, this venue is ideally placed for breakfast, coffee and lunch trade. The surrounding daytime workforce provides a strong built-in customer base, making the site particularly appealing for a café operator, corporate lunch concept, espresso bar or quick-service hospitality business.

The venue also offers approximately 50–60 seats, including an exceptional outdoor trading area featuring a closing roof, outdoor heating and wind barriers. This provides a rare advantage in the CBD, allowing operators to maximise comfort, capacity and atmosphere across all seasons.

For operators seeking additional upside, the existing liquor licence and 3:00am approval provide valuable flexibility for after-work drinks, casual dining, private functions or late-night trade.
