THE BUSINESS/OPPORTUNITY:
The subjects are long established licensed premises in the town having traded for many years as the Caledonian Bar, and the Gallery at the rear. Our client refurbished the premises about 3 years ago and rebranded the front part to Long Island Lounge which has proved extremely popular, serving a good selection of food including burgers, hot dogs, pizzas, pastas, loaded fries etc, alongside a good drinks selection, and the business has a strong reputation for their signature cocktails.

Our client had operated the rear section for a period as a standalone American restaurant called Fat Yankees, and more recently as a sports bar, however it is currently being used for private functions and events including boozy brunches and themed nights which have proved extremely popular.

The layout of the premises offers various options including running it as one big venue, or 2 separate stand-alone venues, and would suit a variety of different offerings and cuisine styles.

The business is currently run completely by staff and it is felt that the business would benefit further from a more hands on owner operator who could concentrate fully on the business.
