Confidential sale: Cafe & beach shop - north norfolk coast
This well-established café occupies a prime beach front position, offering panoramic views over the coastline and direct access to a popular beach. The setting attracts a consistent stream of visitors throughout the year, supported by nearby public facilities, ample parking, and the area’s reputation as a destination for coastal walks, holidays, and day trips.
The business provides both a café and seasonal retail outlet, catering to a broad customer base including tourists, families, and local residents. Its elevated setting and attractive outlook create an inviting atmosphere for casual dining and takeaway trade, with extensive indoor and outdoor seating to accommodate demand during busy periods.
The wider area benefits from strong seasonal visitor numbers and limited direct competition, making this an excellent opportunity for hospitality operators seeking a well-positioned coastal business with further potential. The offering suits both hands-on owner-operators and those looking to expand an existing portfolio in the food and drink sector.
⸻
business:
The café operates under a seasonal trading model, with core activity running from mid-March through to the end of October, supplemented by weekend openings in the quieter months. This pattern supports a healthy work-life balance while still generating a substantial turnover and a high profit margin, with scope for extended opening hours or year-round operation if desired.
The business offers a balanced mix of eat-in and takeaway food and drinks, supported by a well-equipped kitchen and service counter. It is known for offering quality café-style meals, snacks, and hot drinks in a relaxed coastal setting, with additional income generated through a separate beach-themed retail shop selling gifts, toys, snacks, and seasonal essentials.
Customers include day-trippers, holidaymakers, regular local visitors, and walking groups, with strong repeat trade and consistent footfall thanks to the nearby beach, car park, and public amenities. The business is currently run by a full-time chef and manager, supported by seasonal staff as needed, making it well-suited to either owner operation or as part of a managed hospitality portfolio.
⸻
premises:
The business occupies a well-presented café and retail premises set in a commanding seaside location with uninterrupted views across the coastline. The main café area offers approximately 48 internal covers and features wood-effect flooring, a draped ceiling for a coastal ambience, and double doors opening to the outside areas and beach shop. The space is bright and welcoming, designed for comfort and efficient customer flow.
Externally, the premises benefit from a covered veranda with seating for around 46 guests, protected by retractable grills for year-round usability. A further uncovered outdoor area provides space for approximately 42 additional covers, with the potential to expand this seating area further towards the cliff edge.
The café includes a fully equipped commercial kitchen arranged across two zones: A dedicated dishwashing area and a separate cooking section fitted with fryers, griddles, induction hobs, ovens, fridges, and a large extraction system. The front-of-house service area includes a barista coffee station, epos till, refrigerated display, and a range of stainless-steel counters and shelving.
Additional features include a large dry storage room, a walk-in freezer, and access doors leading to the outside. The shop is well-fitted with display shelving, a central sales counter, and ice cream service equipment, providing a valuable secondary income stream. CCTV is installed throughout the property, and a parking space is available for staff or delivery use.
