The café is located in the York suburb of Huntington, which lies to the North of the city. It enjoys a prominent position on a main road in a parade of other commercial premises. It is surrounded by densely populated residential properties. York has a large population of over 140,000, which swells considerably with tourists during the main holiday seasons and students during term times.

The demised space is laid out across the ground floor. It is accessed via a door to the front leading directly into the main customer trading area. These extend back a reasonable distance, but are well lit with large, glazed windows to the front and side.

The café is currently set up for 32 covers but could easily accommodate more. There is laminate flooring throughout with seating on high back chairs set at loose tables. The serving counter is well located at the rear of the premises giving a good view across the trading area and maximizing the space on offer for customers.

The ancillary spaces are located to the rear and include a single unisex customer toilet, well equipped kitchen areas, office, prep area and storage.

To the side at the rear is a separate room with its own entrance. This can be used for private functions and parties.

Externally, there is parking for approximately 6 cars. There is outside picnic bench seating, with 5 tables to the side and 2 at the front.

Our client has owned the business since 2020 and also trades her successful cake business from the site. The cake business trades independently from the café and will not form part of the sale. Our client intends to retain this and the trading name Millie Fox.

During the last 5 years the café has become well-established in the area and has developed a loyal following from nearby residents. The business also benefits from having a license to sell alcohol, which is currently under utilised. Our client wishes to concentrate on the cake business as she does not feel she currently has the time to develop both businesses to their full potential. As a result, she has decided to focus on the cake side of things as this was her original business.

The last set of accounts for the café showed a net turnover of £131,880 for year end March 2025.
