This very successful Surry Hills Café has been established for over 12 years and has provided coffee and food for locals and visitors alike. Strategically located on a premier Inner East high street, the exposure, awareness and patronage of the Café is strong year-round.
The Café has been configured to have no internal seating (“hole in a wall”) and is therefore very easy and simple to run and can be fully functional with only two staff. Operating 6 days a week for breakfast and lunch from 6:30am to 4:00pm Monday to Friday and from 7am to 4pm on Saturday. Closed on Sunday and Public Holidays. Sales have averaged $15.5k per week with 25kg of coffee. With access to outdoor seating (12 seats) it is the perfect café able to cater for the local residents, commuters, businesses and visitors.
Competitively priced and with a highly motivated vendor to sell, this business is a must to inspect if you are in the market for a profitable, easy operational inner east suburbs cafe. This is a good investment opportunity for someone who is looking for a business with low overhead costs, minimal staffing requirements, and the potential for growth. A car space is provided on the premises.
All systems have been put into place for a new owner to take over simply and seamlessly.
