We chose Ernest Wilson because they are a local agent with local knowledge.  The sale of our business was agreed and contracts exchanged within a couple of weeks of the ad appearing on their website though completion took a little longer than planned due to a couple of niggly last minute legal queries.  The team at Ernest Wilson were pro active and supportive at all stages of the transaction and queries from us either by phone or e mail were answered promptly.

The Giving Tree Cafe, Fulneck, Pudsey, Leeds - another business sold by Ernest Wilson

CLOSED CAFÉ in Pudsey, Leeds

This delightful cafe and tuck shop is situated next to a large well known school in a well-populated area between Bradford and Leeds. The premises provide excellent business facilities and large four bedroom accommodation – all for a very reasonable rent. The premises traded successfully as a cafe and school tuck shop until September 2015 when due to personal issues the business was closed down by our client. This is an ideal opportunity for a new owner or partnership to quickly re-establish this business by attracting previous customers, offering outside catering services, extending the menu choices and possibly trading as a bistro on selected evenings. Very well equipped premises, briefly comprising:- beautiful 30 seater cafe area with Georgian style frontage, beamed ceiling and service counter area, very well equipped “restaurant quality” commercial kitchen. First Floor large open plan space – ideal for storage and / or office use. Self-contained adjoining accommodation which provides a hallway, kitchen, lounge, combined bathroom and four good bedrooms.

Review - From Bettys to Barnys

Another lovely review from a satisfied client -

From Bettys to Barnys!

Being a baker for over 30 years, Michael Miller decided to put his skills to good use and open his own bakery.

Having worked at the world renowned Bettys Café & Tea Rooms for the last 7 1/2 years, he has had the benefit of delivering high quality bread and pastries to the most discerning of customers. Latterly, he was also accredited with being a pastry trainer and bakery ambassador which finishes off his highly impressive CV.

The challenge of starting his own bakery was something that he had always wanted to do and has recently completed the purchase of Bobbys Bakery at 5 Stockwell Place, Knaresborough.  Bobbys Bakery was previously run by Robert & Jane Fallon who, after 13 years, decided it was time to move on.

Michael has renamed the bakery ‘Barny Bakes’ and has reopened the business this week and is loving the experience of being his own boss.

Michael said ‘I have managed bakery’s before in the past but never my own and I am channelling all my experience into making Barnys a success.’

Having seen the business advertised with business agents Ernest Wilson, Michael commented ‘I found the experience with Ernest Wilson very productive and found them very professional’

Michael is slowly rebranding the business and is welcoming new customers to contact him on 01423 868454
