Lease terms
A 7 year lease was granted in January 2008, with a three yearly rent review. The vendor informs us that current rent is £550 per month.

Location
The shop has wood laminate floor covering, a suspended ceiling with effective spotlighting and the walls are finished in yellow. There is seating for 27 customers inside on beech tables and chairs with seating for a further 16 outside.

The servery is on the left on entry and a chill display cabinet contains a variety of fillings for freshly made sandwiches and baguettes etc.

Behind the counter are white storage units with grey tops, on top of which are various items of equipment including a toaster, microwave, coffee machine and soup terrine. Small blackboards on the walls promote parts of the extensive menu offered.

There is a lunch menu as well as a breakfast menu and the full range of snacks offered throughout the day includes an extensive range of sandwiches, baguettes, panninis, jacket potatoes, cakes and pastries.

A range of cold drinks is displayed in a chill cabinet on the right, and hot drinks are served from behind the counter.

KITCHEN:

The main kitchen is at the rear of the premises and is well equipped. On the left hand side is a large refrigerator, more white storage cupboards with grey tops, double oven, bake-off oven, and chip fryer. A stainless steel sink is on the far wall while on the right are a chest freezer, large upright freezer and a filing cabinet. A stainless steel work surface is in the centre of the room.


Expansion potential
The popularity of this business continues to grow in this very supportive local community. A good regular customer base has been established and from sales figures the trade continues to increase. There is ample space to provide seating for an additional ten customers. The health and personal circumstances of the owners have, however, changed and they are now finding the demands of the business a little too much. They would like to move towards semi-retirement and are therefore looking to move on to such a role. This is therefore an excellent opportunity for an energetic and positive couple to exploit the opportunity that has been created.
