Key features:
- Around £7,500 weekly turnover, evenings only
- Fully detached unit, recently refurbished
- Hopkins 3-pan counter range
- Two-bedroom owner's flat above with private side access
- Closed at lunchtimes — clear scope to extend hours
A fully detached, recently refurbished fish & chip and hot food takeaway with delivery, sitting at the heart of a large established residential community seven miles south-east of Wakefield. Takings of around £7,500 a week are achieved on evenings only, with no lunchtime trading at all — same ownership since 2011, and a rare chance to step into a settled operation with the obvious daytime upside still on the table.
Trading figures:
Weekly takings sit in the region of £7,500, achieved on a comprehensive menu run evenings only. The turnover is split between counter trade and delivery. Lunchtime sessions are not currently traded, leaving a straightforward route to grow takings by reopening the daytime hours that the existing customer base and residential catchment would readily support.
Trade equipment:
The headline item is a Hopkins 3-pan counter range, widely regarded as the gold standard for British fish & chip ranges. Also included: a double drinks display fridge, digital till, bain-marie, double kebab unit, fish fridge, griddle, pizza oven, freezer, double stainless-steel fridge, chest freezer, six-ring gas cooker, pressure fryer, Tandoori oven, batter mixer, chipper and peeler. A full trade inventory will be provided prior to completion.
Special remarks:
A genuine sale after fifteen years of ownership: the vendor is moving on to purchase a freehold business, leaving behind a well-established unit with a loyal, regular customer base. The structural opportunity is unusually clean — the shop currently trades evenings only, so a capable owner-operator or family team willing to open at lunchtimes has a direct, measurable route to lifting turnover from day one. Inspection will confirm both the standard of the recent refurbishment and the genuine nature of the sale.
