Beach City Coffee House In South California For Sale

Business description

Is your dream to work at the beach and be a part of a local community? If so, this is the business for you --a well-established, successful coffee house that is easy to run. In this beach-close business, customers can enjoy their food or beverage inside at comfortable tables and cushy chairs, sit on the outside benches and enjoy the people watching or walk across the street and sit at the beach. The menu includes hot, cold and blended drinks, simple to prepare foods, and packaged snacks and drinks. Many local businesses and organizations take advantage of the catering services. During the week, there is typically one employee per shift except at opening and closing times. On weekends, additional staffing is required. There are currently 10 part-time employees and three of them have been with the business for more than four years. The Seller runs the business part-time and only works the counter eight hours per week. The cash flow assumes an owner/operator that works 40+ hours per week. This business has been built with tender, loving care and is looking for an owner that will continue the tradition of community involvement.

Coffee shop is 900 sq ft and accommodates several seating areas including a comfortable “living room” environment. With large windows and high 12’ ceilings, the shop is very open and spacious with enough room to host local musicians. There are also comfortable benches outside the shop. This store is not required to have its own parking – of significant value in a high-traffic beach area. The monthly rent is currently $3,200 and the building owner wants a long-term tenant.

New drinks and easy-to-prepare food items can be added. The community connection is important to this business. The new owner should continue to be involved in the community and promote local events.
