Business
This licensed café business was established from these new premises in 2019 and is being placed on the market as the current owner is moving abroad.
The premises are compact but offer a modern and immaculately fitted and equipped space which is configured to provide a service area with internal bar style seating for 8 persons
The current menu is naturally niche, concentrating specifically on Japanese food but incorporated within and a fusion menu. Ingredients include Pork, Salmon and Beef prepared in a range of styles and dishes include tempuras, curries and sliders. The social media feedback is generally faultless and the unit has a 5* hygiene rating. Should a new owner prefer, the site would be suitable for other uses but this is a strong business and Heaton currently has a flourishing “café culture”.
Viewing is recommended to appreciate the location and quality fit out of this business.
