READY TO GO TAKE-AWAY BUSINESS

NORWICH, NORFOLK

Thai To Go is a recently established Thai food takeaway in Norwich, serving a varied menu of freshly prepared dishes for collection and online ordering. Its offering includes starters, soups, salads, curries, stir-fries, noodles, rice dishes, chef’s specials, set meals, desserts, drinks and vegan options.

The business serves customers from Norwich and the surrounding area across a wide age range. Its accessible position near the inner ring road and within walking distance of the city centre, combined with extensively improved premises, presents an attractive opportunity for an experienced operator or first-time buyer.


BUSINESS:

Thai To Go operates from 5.00 pm to 10.00 pm every day. Customers can order directly through the business’s website, supported by a clearly organised menu covering a broad selection of Thai cuisine.

The current owner acquired the former Chinese takeaway in May 2025 and subsequently introduced the Thai To Go concept after completing an extensive refurbishment. As the business has only recently commenced trading in its present form, limited historical financial information is available.

The owner estimates that, following a longer period of established trading, sales could potentially reach approximately £7,000–£8,000 per week. This is an owner’s projection rather than achieved turnover and should be independently verified by interested parties.

The chef has given notice. The owner intends to return overseas for work, prompting the sale.


PREMISES:

The business occupies prominent corner terraced premises close to Norwich’s inner ring road and within walking distance of the city centre. The position benefits from passing pedestrian and vehicle traffic, with resident permit parking and short-stay customer parking available nearby.

Previously in a run-down and unfurnished condition, the property has been refurbished and equipped to a high standard. The owner advises that approximately £45,000–£50,000 has been invested in the building. Improvements include new furnishings, a washing machine, water tank and toilet, separate staff toilet, together with boiler servicing. The premises also provide operational areas and useful basement or cellar storage.

The business is offered on a leasehold basis, with a new lease to be arranged at a proposed rent of £1,350 per calendar month. The premises may also suit alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning permission and landlord’s consent.


ACCOMMODATION:

Furnished three-bedroom owner’s accommodation is arranged on the first floor above the business. It comprises one large bedroom, one medium-sized bedroom and one smaller bedroom, together with a recently refurbished bathroom, separate WC, kitchen area and ample storage.

The accommodation has been furnished as part of the wider refurbishment, providing the incoming operator with the option of living conveniently above the business.
