About this business
A compact city-centre bar in Sunderland serving cocktails, wine and small plates to an after-work and weekend crowd. It has traded since 2016 on a lease and employs 6. Turnover has held at about £300k for six years, with EBITDA steady at around £51k, a margin of about 17%. The concept, fit-out style and drinks list could be taken to new premises if a buyer wanted. A buyer gets a consistent, profitable bar that does not depend on heavy food sales.
