Business description
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this medieval style restaurant, which was established by our clients in 1994 and which is only now being offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £240,000 per annum with a gross profit of 60%. Camelot Restaurant offers high quality medieval style dining, along with a selection of real ales, fine wines and spirits. The bar area, shows a lot of sports and is popular with the locals. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and establishing a website. The business has a loyal customer base and enjoys much repeat trade. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade, boasting 2 restaurant areas and a commercial kitchen. There are 2 flats, 1 x 2-bedroom and 1 x 1-bedroom, to the first and second floors, which we feel could be let out to generate an additional income. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy restaurant with huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
