Description - Manyweathers Estate Agency are pleased to bring to the market Spiced Bay, an established Indian restaurant occupying characterful premises on William Street, just moments from Herne Bay?s seafront.

Offered at an asking premium of £79,995, including all fixtures and fittings, this fully equipped restaurant presents an attractive opportunity for an experienced restaurateur or family operator seeking an established hospitality business in a popular Kent coastal town.

The premises feature a distinctive frontage with arched windows, decorative detailing and prominent restaurant signage. Inside, high ceilings, decorative columns, feature lighting and mirrored walls create an inviting dining environment, with furnished and partitioned seating areas accommodating approximately 56 guests. The seller advises that there may be scope to increase capacity to around 70 covers, subject to the proposed layout and any necessary approvals.

An equipped commercial kitchen supports both restaurant service and takeaway operations, with extraction, cooking equipment, stainless-steel preparation surfaces and storage. Further ancillary storage provides practical support for day-to-day trading.

A particular advantage is the five-bedroom staff accommodation situated downstairs, included within the annual rent of £24,000. This provides a valuable addition for an operator requiring accommodation for their team alongside the business.

The seller reports an established customer base, positive online reviews and additional seasonal trade from visitors to Herne Bay?s beach and seafront attractions.

Turnover: £416,000

Further opportunities may include private functions, group bookings, menu development and revised opening hours. Any increase in seating, use of outdoor space or operational changes would remain subject to the lease, licensing conditions and any necessary consents
