- Closes by 7.30pm — no late evenings, no deliveries

A semi-detached lock-up fish & chip takeaway in a village centre south-east of Leeds, taking £2,600 to £3,000 a week from just 23.5 trading hours and closing no later than 7.30pm. Five years under the current owner have built an excellent reputation and a regular base of locals, nearby businesses and passing traffic. The sale is genuine — family health issues are forcing the move — and the vendor will offer a trial week to verify takings and help with handover.
Trading figures:
Weekly takings are reported at £2,600 to £3,000, all achieved from a traditional fish & chip menu over just 23.5 trading hours a week and with no delivery service in place. The vendor is happy to discuss the figures in detail at viewing, and there is clear scope to push them further by extending opening hours and adding the home deliveries the area currently goes without.
Trade equipment:
The hero piece is a Preston & Thomas three-pan wall range sitting behind the counter. Also included: a 56lb rumbler and chipper, three-pot bain-marie, four-ring gas oven, upright drinks chiller, draw till with iPad, 12-tray fish fridge, upright fridge/freezer and a large chest freezer. A full inventory will be provided prior to completion.
Special remarks:
A genuine sale after five years of ownership, brought to market because of family health issues. The business has built an excellent reputation and a strong regular customer base drawn from local residents, nearby businesses and passing traffic. The current owner sponsors the local football club — supplying fish & chip suppers for 40 to 80 people across three presentation nights a season — and caters for village events throughout the year, ties that a new owner can comfortably inherit. The vendor is willing to offer a trial week to verify takings and to provide help during the transition. For an owner-operator prepared to extend the hours and add deliveries, the upside is straightforward and measurable.
