This is not a standard cafe.
Buyers can choose to operate a typical daytime coffee business — or take advantage of a rare opportunity to expand into evening trade with a full liquor licence already in place.
Located in a high-traffic shopping precinct in Mermaid Waters, this well-established venue already delivers strong, consistent daytime revenue, supported by loyal customers, quality coffee trade (30kg/week), and in-house food production.
What sets this business apart is the ability to unlock a second revenue stream.
With a full liquor licence, 8 beer taps, and a large indoor/outdoor footprint, the venue is perfectly positioned to transition into a day-to-night operation — something very few cafe businesses in comparable locations can offer.
Surrounded by restaurants and evening foot traffic, the opportunity exists to introduce:
- Dinner or extended trading hours
- Bar-style service and beverage-led revenue
- Private functions, events, and live music
- Night-time trade that complements the already established daytime income
Key Highlights:
- Proven, established cafe with strong weekly turnover
- Full commercial kitchen and spacious dining layout
- Significant indoor/outdoor seating capacity including undercover alfresco
- Full liquor licence with 8 taps — rare for this type of business
- Strong daytime performance with clear upside in evening trade
- QR ordering system already in place for operational efficiency
- Demonstrated event capability (recent 90 person function)
Why this stands out: Most cafes are limited to daytime trade and operate within tight margin structures.
This venue offers something different — the ability to evolve beyond a traditional cafe model and build a higher-margin, diversified hospitality business.
Lease & Security:
- Lease secured until late 2028
- Additional 3-year option available
This is a genuine opportunity for an operator who sees beyond the standard cafe model and wants to capitalise on an underutilised evening trade in a proven location.
Opportunities like this — combining established daytime income with licensed evening potential — are rarely brought to market.
