Torquay fish and chip shop in £90,000 sale

A fish and chip shop that overlooks the Inner Harbour and Bay in Torquay is being offered for sale by property agent Bettesworth.

The Chandlers Fish & Chip Café has been run by the same family for the past 14 years and enjoys plenty of local trade, with increased visits during the summer holiday season from the tourists visiting the local attractions.

The café has seating for 28 and trades all year round, opening every day 10am to 10pm during the summer and 10am to 6pm in the winter months.

The area has a plethora of gift shops, cafes, restaurants as well as nearby parking facilities. While the Living Coast attraction, ferry cruises and harbour are also close by.

Revenue for the year to the end of April 2014 reached £161,832, supported by a strong gross profit, showing an increase of 15 per cent on trading for 2013.

The premises also has three self-contained apartments with views across the harbour and out to the bay. For £89,950 a buyer can take on the leasehold to include the trade inventory and goodwill.

Genevieve Stringer at Bettesworth is managing the sale and said: “This is a wonderful opportunity for a husband & wife team or partnership to take on an already established business and make it their own”.
