CoGoGo welcomes to the market Thyme Deli, a highly rated licensed Delicatessen and Cafe in Horwich, Bolton. 

The business was originally established over 20 years ago, with our client taking over in 2022. As seen by the online ratings and reviews, the business is extremely popular within the local area, resulting in a regular customer base. 

Thyme Deli has now come to the open market due to our clients ongoing health issues.

The popular café side of the business offers a great breakfast and lunch menu with the dishes being freshly prepared on the premises and using local and in season ingredients wherever possible. There is also an alcohol licence in place. 

The deli offers a wide range of quality products many of which are also used on the cafe menu.

Our client also introduced an outside catering service, as well as hosting a wide range of special occasions like baby showers, birthdays and more along with their regular monthly events for example the mediumship nights, their highly rated & popular Charlottle Tilbury Master Class and Bottomless Brunch Events.
