Veritas Business Sales are delighted to offer for sale this respected Coffee Shop & Bistro which is located near Lichfield. Situated within a prominent and highly visible trading position on a busy main road. The immediate area offers a variety of retail shops and an abundance of residential houses all of which brings decent levels of footfall to the area.

Business Description
Veritas Business sales offer to the market this outstanding Coffee Shop & Bistro which is located near Lichfield. The premises were transformed into what you see today by the owners back in 2019. They are now with a heavy heart offering the business for sale due to a desire to relocate.
Since ownership they have refurbished, redecorated and continually invested in new equipment along with fixtures and fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which is a huge plus for a new owner as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time. The Café is owner operated with the help of 2 part time members of staff and 2 Saturday helpers and has an annual turnover of circa £200,000. The menu offers breakfast & brunch items, specialist coffees, teas, hot chocolates, iced drinks, beers, wines, spirits and soft drinks. Every 6-8 weeks they conduct pop up events which include tapas, Sunday roast and cheese & wine nights, all of which sell out within half a day
We believe that there is further potential to increase revenue should you wish, by opening on Sunday. Their current turnover on a Saturday is around £1,200, if this was replicated on a Sunday (which they are currently asked to do on a regular basis, showing demand) this could increase turnover by potentially £60k annually, without taking into account Mondays and evenings, which again we are frequently asked to do. The business enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a fantastic opportunity to purchase an established business where all the hard work has been done, which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended.
