Description
The Cafe is situated in a prime high street corner trading position; the premises is only a stone's throw away from the newly developed Trinity College, Halifax bus station, and the central precinct.
This concern provides a lockup retail premises with significant shop frontage and benefits from a high footfall of passing trade with thousands of daily passers-by.
Internally, the Café has been fitted to a high standard with modern décor and a mixture of window seating, table, and chair seating.
The Café area is set across the ground floor and can accommodate up to 30 seating covers comfortably. There is a service counter facing the frontage, with hot and cold display units and preparation areas. A fully equipped commercial kitchen can be found on the same floor, housing an excellent range of new catering equipment and extraction system.
The basement area has ample storage space, additional preparation areas, a staff WC, and a separate shower room.
The café currently serves lights snacks and breakfasts throughout the day with some fast food to accommodate the student demand from the College opposite.
This business operates from Monday to Friday, for short hours during the day. The Cafe is mainly run by staff, with the current owner single-handedly having to overlook the daily operation of this business and many of their other concerns.
