      Cogogo welcomes Victoria Sponge, a vibrant, independent cafe located in Dundee, offering a ready-made opportunity to acquire a stylish and well-loved business with a strong local following.

      Established approximately 1.5 years ago and acquired by the current owner in September, the cafe has quickly built a reputation for quality, warmth, and personality. The business is being brought to market due to the owner’s health, creating an excellent chance for a new operator to step into a proven concept with momentum already behind it.

      Victoria Sponge is a contemporary cafe serving customers exclusively on a sit-in basis, with no deliveries, allowing the business to focus on customer experience and in-house service quality.

      The cafe comfortably seats around 30 covers, creating a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere that encourages repeat visits. There remains clear scope to develop the offering further, whether through menu expansion, themed events, or extended trading hours, subject to the new owner’s vision.

      Victoria Sponge represents a fun, modern, and exciting cafe opportunity ideal for a hands-on owner or lifestyle buyer looking for a business with character, community presence, and room to grow.
