SOLD - The Honey Bun Cafe, Bakewell, Derbyshire
FAMOUS BEAUTY SPOT CAFE in Bakewell
This is a well-established and highly regarded cafe business located in the very centre, of this picture postcard Derbyshire Dales and Peak District market town. A short distance from the Monsal Trail, Chatsworth House and Matlock Bath, the town attracts masses of tourists throughout the year, in addition to the thriving locally derived trade. The cafe is recognised for its reasonably priced but high-quality fare, including home-made soups, stew and scones, as well as its reputation for being dog friendly. A highly profitable concern. Our clients have been running the cafe very much at leisure, as a ‘lifestyle’ business and pretty much at their own pace, taking eight weeks holiday throughout the year, at which time the cafe remains closed. Energetic and ambitious new owners could certainly take the business to a much more commercial level and easily invite a higher volume of trade. The premises comprises: Very typical and traditional stone built cottage style property in the central shopping district of the town. The cafe premises occupy the ground floor with attractive Georgian style frontage and entrance door leading to customer seating area for 22. Service and pay counter with coffee servery and back bar. Very well equipped kitchen and food preparation area. Pot wash area and ample storage. Staff WC. Business on lease. Ref: 585174
