Description

COFFEE SHOP AND SANDWICH BAR in Ripon for Sale.

An exceptional opportunity to acquire this fully refitted and beautifully presented business just off Ripon’s historic Market Place. Completely refurbished in 2025 to a high standard, this turnkey sandwich and coffee bar enjoys a prime trading position close to shops, offices, and visitor attractions, ensuring strong year-round footfall. Currently run by the owner alone, the business achieves average weekly sales of around £1,000 on short hours. There is clear potential to boost turnover by opening earlier, adding staff, and introducing deliveries. With an excellent reputation and modern fit-out, this is an ideal low-overhead venture for a first-time buyer or experienced operator. The cafe benefits from excellent visibility and consistent footfall from locals, tourists, and market-day visitors. Surrounding independent retailers and cafes create a vibrant trading environment. This is a rare chance to take over a modern, well-equipped cafe with low overheads, great location, and huge growth potential - ready for a new owner to step in and succeed.

The premises, held on a five-year lease at a sensible rent, include a stylish ground floor sales area with contemporary decor and quality equipment - two-station coffee machine, refrigerated displays, panini press, and ample prep space. To the rear is a galley-style prep area and staff WC. The first floor offers storage, and there is a small rear yard. The entire premises were refitted in 2025 and are in immaculate, ready-to-trade condition.
Stock £400 to £500.
