WEEKLY TAKINGS

The business has demonstrated strong trading performance, previously achieving £5,000 - £6,000 per week when operating on a full-time basis with extended hours.

Due to reduced opening hours and limited trading at present, current takings are approximately £2,000 - £2,500 per week, offering clear scope for growth.

There is significant potential to increase turnover by reinstating full opening hours, maximising the benefit of the 4:00am late-night licence, and capitalising on the high footfall from the surrounding student and leisure market.
