About the Business

This is Kingscliff's gateway cafe - the first cafe visitors hit entering Marine Parade village, opposite the Beach Holiday Park, adjacent to bustling retail, directly on the beachfront. Positions like this don't come to market often, if ever.
The seller owns the building. A brand new lease negotiated as part of the sale - on terms that work for you, with a community-minded landlord seeking a quality long-term tenant. This eliminates the biggest risk in hospitality: lease uncertainty.

The Cafe
A 70sqm fully equipped coffee-focused venue with La Marzocco setup and quality equipment portfolio - all owned outright with no finance. Six trained staff with a head barista run everything. The owner operates entirely from interstate, less than one hour per week.
The venue carries a 4.9-star Google rating with 400+ reviews - a reputation that transfers with the business.
Kingscliff has seen 11.9% population growth, $1.89M median house prices, and a $22M foreshore revitalisation creating a new community hub steps from this door.

The Opportunity
Currently run as a dual-purpose art studio and cafe, the owners recognise this asset deserves a dedicated operator to unlock its full potential. For someone ready to build, this means significant untapped opportunity:

- Space: Only 30% of internal area used as cafe - convert the balance to triple dining capacity, plus licensed outdoor seats

- Hours: Currently 6:30am-1pm only - extend into afternoons and evenings

- Menu: External baked goods only - no hot breakfast, no lunch menu. Space and infrastructure to expand into full kitchen operation

- Liquor license: Never applied for - beachfront sunset drinks is an obvious opportunity

- Cash payments: Currently card-only, turning away ~10% of daily trade. Instant revenue uplift by accepting cash

- Plus: No retail, no delivery platforms, no catering, no online ordering, minimal marketing

Bonus: Additional commercial kitchen equipment available separately for buyers looking to scale up food operations (barely used, price negotiable).
The foundation is proven. The upside is waiting.

Included: Full equipment fit-out (owned outright), stock at valuation, trained staff team + head barista, established supplier relationships, alternative brand packages available.

Why selling? The owners want this community asset realised to its full potential by the right long-term operator. They will remain as landlords and are motivated to secure a quality tenant who will invest in the business for the long term.
