Cafe and bistro in the Hope Valley for Sale.
A rare opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished and profitable cafe and bistro in the heart of a thriving Peak District tourist destination. The current owners purchased the freehold in 2024 when the property was in a poor state and non-trading. Since then, over £60,000 has been invested into renovations, new equipment, staff training, and operational upgrades, transforming it into a modern, successful hospitality business. The cafe operates year-round with strong winter trade. It is walker and tourist-friendly by design and offers daytime and evening dining, event space and high-quality local food. Average daily covers of 90 to 120 and a yearly turnover between £360,000 and £400,000, the business runs with gross profit margins of 60 to 67% and net profit margins of 15 to 22%. Staff are highly trained, mainly local, and remain under flexible contracts. Digital systems are in place for rotas, bookings and marketing, all of which are transferable. The cafe has a strong presence on social media and OpenTable (unique in the area) boosting visibility and advance bookings.
Comprising ground floor open plan dining areas spaciously accommodating 36 to 40 diners and a fully stocked bar for alcohol and hot and cold beverage service. Superbly equipped catering kitchen with commercial quality equipment arranged to provide high volume food service. A first floor exists and has planning approved for residential use but is currently not being used. The current owners have secured planning permission to add two guest rooms and staff accommodation above the cafe. A project scheme has commenced and full planning, design and costing packs are available. This provides a major growth opportunity through overnight stays in a village where accommodation is in extremely high demand. Externally, highly attractive, picture postcard frontage. Patio doors from the rear of the main restaurant lead to a paved and covered rear courtyard, followed by steps leading down to a walled garden with lawn, shrubs, mature trees and stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The courtyard and gardens easily accommodate 65 or more customers and is large enough to host special events. An outbuilding has been converted into elegant ladies and gents toilets. An additional outbuilding provides ample storage. EPC Band C.
