Licensed Day Trade Café with Lifestyle Appeal & Major Growth Potential

An outstanding opportunity is now available to acquire a beautifully presented, established café in one of Melbourne’s most sought-after inner-eastern suburbs.

Currently operating as a successful day trade café, this business offers the highly desirable lifestyle combination of early closes, evenings off and strong weekly sales, currently averaging approximately $15,000 per week under management. With the hard work already done, an incoming owner can step into a well-positioned operation with quality infrastructure, excellent exposure and multiple avenues for growth.

The premises occupy a high-profile corner position on a busy main road, delivering exceptional visibility to both pedestrian and passing vehicle traffic. Surrounded by residential, commercial and retail activity, the business benefits from a strong and diverse customer base including locals, office workers, tradespeople, shoppers and regular passing trade.

The café is impressively fitted out and features a fully equipped commercial kitchen, allowing a smooth transition for a new owner. Seating is generous, with approximately 60 seats internally, 24 external covered seats and a further 16 curbside seats, creating a spacious and inviting environment for customers.

A major highlight is the venue’s valuable liquor licence, allowing trade for up to 70 patrons until 1:00am. While the business currently enjoys daytime-only trading, this licence presents significant upside for an energetic operator to introduce dinner service, private functions, corporate events, special occasions or catering.

Alternatively, buyers seeking a lifestyle business may choose to continue the existing café model and enjoy the benefits of a proven operation with early finishes and evenings free.

Further enhancing the appeal is the secure lease and highly attractive rent of only $1,253.95 plus GST per week, an excellent rental structure for a venue of this calibre, exposure and position.
