Property description
Ainsworth Lord Estates are delighted to be offering for sale Darwen's very own, award winning "BEST CAFE IN DARWEN 2014" due to the current tenant wishing to retire. A new lease will be granted for the new owner, of no less than 7 years.
Situated in a prominent location on one of the busiest main roads in the County, with ample parking at the front and nearby, this established, award winning cafe is ready for a new enthusiastic owner to take it to the next level.
Currently with approx 20 covers (which means tables and seating for approx 20 people) and a spacious take-away with waiting area, there is ample scope to increase the seating and boost the take-away business etc..
The current menu is traditional by nature and offers a wide range of good quality food catering for the needs of locals and the passing trade. The current owner has also built up a good reputation for providing outside catering. This is an area of the business that can be quite easily developed further.

The current fixtures and fittings are for sale as part of this transaction (price to be agreed, by negotiation) and include a fully equipped kitchen, dining area with all the tables and chairs, real coffee machine (cost £7k new), and other counter/serving equipment. - You can get an idea of what equipment is available by looking at the pictures, and this can be discussed further at the viewing stage.
Goodwill:
