Description
Fully refurbished mediterannean restaurant with spacious owners accommodation in the popular seaside town of Criccieth.
Criccieth is located on the Llyn Peninsula overlooking Tremadog Bay in the County of Gwynedd. Known as the 'Pearl of Wales on the shores of Snowdonia', this attractive Victorian seaside resort is popular with tourists and renowned for its two fantastic beaches, its promenade and its traditional Welsh charm. Notable nearby attractions include Criccieth Castle which was originally built by Llywelyn the Great in the early 13th century. The town is within easy reach of Snowdonia National Park and there are plenty of walking trails in the area including the Criccieth Heritage Walk and the North Wales Coast Path. Criccieth lies on the A497, the main road running through the southern Llyn Peninsula from Porthmadog to Pwllheli, and the B4411 from the town runs to Caernarfon via the A487 northbound. Criccieth Station is directly adjacent to the property and is served by trains running on the Cambrian Coast Line between Pwllheli and Machynlleth.
This end terrace property has been hugely invested in over recent years with a new two section trade area, generous sized trade kitchen and modernisation and reconfiguration of the owners' accommodation. Externally, the property has benefitted from decoration to the rendering and a new slate roof (fitted in 2023). The property briefly comprises:
TRADE AREAS
ENTRANCE PORCH/RECEPTION HALLWAY with tile flooring and feature lighting with the MAIN BAR/RESTAURANT AREA off to the left. There is loose dining seating for 14, tile floors, a brick chimney breast, modern lighting and décor and wood constructed BAR SERVERY with back bar comprising tile floors, till system, undercounter refrigeration units and wood shelving back bar with upgraded Draftmaster keg system. Second RESTAURANT AREA with seating for 12 featuring wood flooring, an open fireplace with large bay windows offering castle views. UNISEX WC. CELLAR to basement. On level KEG ROOM/BOTTLE STORE.
Newly fitted two section KITCHEN with a good selection of catering equipment and effects, Altro flooring and WASH and PREP areas. The kitchen features new fire boards on studded walls with white hygiene rated wall cladding. There are new fixtures, fittings and appliances throughout. STAFF WC and PANTRY offset. Access to private enclosed COURTYARD.
OWNERS ACCOMMODATION
Located at first floor comprising: Cosy LOUNGE offering castle views, separate DINING/DAY ROOM which has potential to be used as a double bedroom, modern SHOWER ROOM with basin and separate WC, TWO generous sized DOUBLE BEDROOMS, UTILITY ROOM (which could be utilised as a further double bedroom), fitted KITCHEN, ROOF SPACE which houses TWO generous sized DOUBLE BEDROOMS.
EXTERNAL
To the front of the property are two gravel TRADE AREAS which offer seating for 8 and provide stunning castle views. To the side of the property there is parking for 2 vehicles and, in addition, there is plenty of on street parking to the front. Rear internal COURTYARD.
The Crab & Lemon trades as a Mediterranean licensed restaurant/tapas bar in an enviable location in the heart of Criccieth town centre. Our clients have overseen huge renovations and made significant investments since purchasing the property in 2022; they have turned this former traditional wet-led public house into a modern and stylish restaurant which is both popular with the local community and the many tourists who visit Criccieth each year. Our clients currently only operate the business seasonally (April to the end of October, 4 nights a week) which leaves plenty of scope for a new owner to increase trade by extending the current opening hours, offering a drinks-only menu and trading as a coffee shop/café during the daytime. There is further potential to convert (STPP) the owners' accommodation to letting rooms given that there is so much demand for short term holiday rentals in the area. This is an ideal opportunity for a couple or aspiring chef seeking the perfect work/life balance.
FREEHOLD to include goodwill, fixtures and fittings. Stock at valuation in addition.
No direct approach to be made to the business; please direct all communications through Sidney Phillips.
