Established patisserie and café in affluent Wellswood, Torquay, with a trading history at this location spanning more than 50 years and scope to expand the current café offering and menu.
Naughty But Nice serves a range of pastries, breads, cakes, chocolates, sandwiches and baguettes alongside fresh coffee, teas, hot chocolate and cold drinks. Customers can eat in or take away, with the main trading area providing seating for eight. The business is well equipped for continued operation, supported by dedicated commercial preparation and catering areas, extensive refrigeration and specialist bakery equipment.
The café occupies a double-fronted unit within Wellswood’s attractive parade of Victorian properties, surrounded by independent retailers and amenities serving the local community. Anstey’s Cove and Meadfoot Beach are approximately a 10-minute walk away, while Torquay Harbour and town centre can be reached in approximately 15 minutes, providing access to both local and visitor trade.
The business currently trades five days per week, from 8.30am to 4pm, closing at 2.30pm on Saturdays and remaining closed on Sundays and Mondays. The current trading pattern provides scope for a new operator to consider longer opening hours, while the existing café and menu could also be extended.
