BLANK CANVAS BAKERY / CAFE OPPORTUNITY - MOONEE PONDS
An outstanding blank canvas hospitality opportunity is now available in Moonee Ponds, offering incoming operators the rare chance to establish a new café, bakery or food concept in a beautifully renovated and fully fitted tenancy.
While the business is currently trading, the brand is not being sold.
This opportunity is strictly for the leasehold premises only, providing complete freedom for a new operator to introduce their own concept, branding and menu.
The existing vendor originally envisioned a multi-site rollout, supplying several retail locations from a central production kitchen.
Due to other commitments, this expansion will no longer proceed, and all secondary locations are being released to the market with the focus now being on the main retail/production kitchen.
This creates an exceptional opportunity for an experienced or aspiring operator to take over a high-quality fitout that requires minimal additional capital - simply bring your concept and equipment.
KEY LEASE DETAILS:
• Great location with excellent street frontage
• Rent: $1,105.77 + GST per week
• Lease Commencement: 1 April 2025
• Term: 5 Years
• Options: 2 x 5 Years
• Building Area: Approx. 140m²
THE PREMISES:
The tenancy has been fully renovated and beautifully presented, offering a contemporary, welcoming environment that suits a wide range of hospitality uses.
The layout and presentation make it ideal for:
• Café
• Bakery
• Specialty food concept
• Light commercial kitchen operation
The front-of-house is already designed to showcase food and beverage offerings, with excellent display and customer flow.
It's the perfect opportunity for operators wanting to open quickly without the delays and costs associated with a council permits and fit out.
COMMERCIAL KITCHEN CAPABILITY:
This opportunity also comes with existing commercial kitchen infrastructure, which includes:
• Canopy
• Stainless steel benches
• Cool room
• Storage
For operators requiring a functional kitchen, all major groundwork is already in place. Only cooking equipment is required to commence operations, significantly reducing setup time and capital expenditure.
Alternatively, the space lends itself equally well to a café or bakery model where food is prepared off-site or requires minimal cooking, making this a highly flexible offering.
LOCATION & DEMOGRAPHICS:
Moonee Ponds is one of Melbourne’s most established and tightly held inner-northwest suburbs, renowned for its strong café culture, affluent residential catchment and vibrant retail strips.
Benefits include:
• Excellent exposure
• Strong local foot traffic
• A loyal residential customer base
• Proximity to schools, transport and lifestyle amenities
The area is characterised by quality demographic fundamentals, including:
• High household incomes
• Established families and professionals
• A strong appreciation for quality food, coffee and hospitality experiences
This demographic profile supports both premium and everyday food concepts and provides confidence for operators seeking a sustainable, long-term business location.
WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY STANDS OUT:
• True blank canvas – create your own brand and vision
• Fully renovated, move-in ready tenancy
• Existing commercial kitchen infrastructure
• Flexible layout suitable for multiple hospitality concepts
• Prime Moonee Ponds location with excellent demographics
• Long lease tenure with attractive options
Opportunities of this calibre, where the heavy lifting has already been done, are rarely offered to the market.
Inspection & Further Information:
This is an ideal opportunity for café owners, bakers, hospitality groups or food entrepreneurs seeking a quality site in a proven Melbourne location.
Inspections are highly recommended.
