Casual dining restaurant on a freehold in central Manchester

About this business

Casual dining restaurant in the centre of Manchester, trading since 2024 from a freehold the business owns. Turnover has grown in each year to £650k, while EBITDA has eased back by 11% to £119k as wages and food costs have risen. Even so, the margin of about 18% is healthy for the sector. A team of 13 runs the kitchen and floor. A buyer gets the building in a busy central location, which matters more for walk-in trade than any fit-out, and no landlord to negotiate with.

Key investment highlights

  • Freehold in central Manchester
  • Margin of about 18% despite cost pressure
  • Turnover up each year to £650k
  • Team of 13 across kitchen and floor

Reason for sale

The owner is moving to the south coast and cannot run the restaurant from there.
