North Queensland cafe restaurant opportunity with almost $1.5 million in FY2026 sales

Confidentially offered in North Queensland, this established cafe restaurant gives a hospitality buyer an operating business with almost $1.5 million in FY2026 sales. The venue includes documented kitchen, refrigeration, POS and coffee-service equipment, with a lease term to November 2030 plus a five-year option. It suits an owner operator, owner barista or existing hospitality operator seeking an established food and beverage business.

• Annual sales of approximately $1.45 million, providing meaningful trading scale from day one.

• Well-positioned independent cafe restaurant with outdoor dining.

• Established loyal customer base.

• Operates outside shopping centre rules and restrictions.

• Secure lease term through 2030 with a further five-year option, subject to usual transfer requirements.

• Solar installed at the premises.

• Fully equipped commercial kitchen, cafe service area, refrigeration and POS infrastructure already in place.

• An established operating format that avoids the time, disruption and capital cost of creating a new venue from scratch.

• Ideal for a capable owner operator or hospitality group looking to apply stronger systems, menu direction and service standards to an existing customer base.

This is not a start-up cafe. It is a well-positioned, independent North Queensland cafe restaurant with annual sales of approximately $1.45 million, a loyal customer base, outdoor dining and lease security through 2030 with a further option. It gives a buyer immediate scale without the usual cost, risk and time involved in finding a site, securing a lease, fitting out a kitchen and building trade from zero.

A key advantage is the independence of the site. The business is not governed by shopping centre rules, giving an incoming operator greater flexibility to run the venue in line with their own operating approach. The outdoor dining area adds another appealing customer-facing feature, while the long lease provides continuity for the next owner.

The venue is equipped for the pace of a full cafe restaurant operation, with commercial cooking and food-preparation equipment, refrigeration and display capacity, coffee-service equipment and POS systems. Solar is installed at the premises. The next owner inherits an operating platform and can concentrate on the levers that create value in hospitality: customer experience, menu execution, cost control, team leadership and local marketing.

The strongest fit is a hands-on operator who can build on established trade and customer loyalty, or a hospitality group seeking an additional North Queensland location with infrastructure already in place.

This opportunity is offered confidentially. Detailed financial information, lease documentation and an asset schedule will be provided to qualified buyers after execution of a confidentiality agreement.
