MARKET TOWN PIZZA BAR WITH APARTMENT in North Yorkshire for Sale.
This is truly one of the most elegant and unique food and drink venues we have had the privilege to bring to market. A chic and vibrant 50 cover restaurant in a former bank building located in the heart of an affluent market town between York and Beverley. This bright and contemporary restaurant and pizza bar is a favourite among locals and tourist visitors and is highly regarded for its quality pizzas baked in an imported Italian wood-fired pizza oven that takes centre stage as an interesting feature of the restaurant.
For owners wishing to live on site or offer accommodation as an incentive to a manager or chef, the first floor has a very comfortable and modern one bedroom, self-contained apartment.
Pavement seating is permitted and can accommodate 20 to 25 customers.
THE BUSINESS
Mainly trading evenings and only five days a week, yet still enjoying weekly takings of almost £10,000 gross, leaving lots of potential to trade as a coffee shop on mornings, add lunchtime service and Sunday openings and take fuller advantage of the footfall in this very busy and bustling market town.
The restaurant is superbly fitted, equipped and furnished and has clever design elements incorporating the safe room feature wine cave, coloured glass skylight and huge leaded light windows.
The current owners wish to sell in order to start a family and work more regular daytime hours, therefore the business is offered at a price to sell quickly and at well under market value for such a spectacular restaurant fit-out, prized location, highest standard of equipment and lovely accommodation.
