Restaurant for sale

Description

A fantastically fitted premises which, up until recently, was trading as an authentic American smokehouse restaurant & takeaway, meaning this really is a turn-key situation. Prior to closing, the business was thriving, but sadly has to be sold due to the operating owner being unable to manage the business because of ill health. The dense population surrounding this restaurant is prime for takeaway orders and the premises offers seating for 25 to 30 covers. When trading, the business had a 5-star rating from the food standards agency, in addition to being highly rated on Tripadvisor with a 4.5* rating, a facebook rating of 4.7* and a 4.3* google review. The premises really is a turn-key operation, with a lot of potential for someone who can put the time and energy in what’s needed to run a small restaurant/takeaway. This can be sold as either a business with the complete Smokey’s Meat Shack setup and social following, or alternatively it would suit various other cuisine types. Viewing recommended. OUR REF: RX262455 - V6724E
