A wonderfully situated café which has been owner operated for many years. This well-equipped lock up café with 24 covers benefits from high footfall and is only a short walk from Torquay harbour and seafront. This easily operated café has two indoor seating areas and is visited by locals and visitors alike. The property benefits from not having to pay any business rates. With convenient parking opposite and private parking to rear, early viewings are highly recommended....
LOCATION
Ivy’s Café is ideally located on Tor Hill Road, Torquay which enjoys prime location, good footfall and passing vehicle traffic and is ideally situated in the very heart of the perennially busy town centre. Positioned within walking distance to the main town centre, Seafront, Harbour and with convenient parking nearby.
BUSINESS
The business trades successfully all year round and we the agents feel there is scope to expand on the already impressive turnover by incorporating longer opening hours together with a take-away facility. Actual trading accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
