Thriving Delicatessen for Sale
Established in 2003, this well-regarded and successful business has been under the current ownership for approximately nine years. The business is now being offered for sale solely due to the vendor’s planned retirement.
Ideally located in a central position, this attractive delicatessen benefits from a loyal customer base and operates with seating for up to 15 customers. The business serves hot beverages, including tea and coffee, alongside a selection of freshly prepared homemade meals. It currently holds a top Food Hygiene Rating of 5.
There is significant scope for further growth, including extending trading hours, introducing Sunday opening, expanding the outside catering offering, applying for a drinks licence (subject to planning permission), and potentially increasing seating capacity by utilising the rear yard area.

Location Summary:
Birchington was once considered ‘the epitome of modest’. That statement may still be considered. Understated opulence: A wealth of late Victorian and Edwardian properties stand alongside flint or cliff-top cottages - Birchington really does have something for everyone. An array of bakers, an ice cream parlour and vintage shops make Birchington the perfect village location to base yourself if you still need to commute to the City. Located just minutes from the A299 with a journey of approximately 75 minutes to the O2 Arena and Greenwich. Of course if you’d like a stress-free journey then just take the train from Birchington straight through to London Victoria. Travel in the other direction and just three stops along you’ll be able to enjoy the seaside towns of Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate. There are a number of schools within the village from nursery through to Secondary education and a doctor’s surgery. Those who enjoy sport will find a magnificent 18-hole golf club, windsurfing along Minnis Bay, (not forgetting the atmospheric Minnis Bar & Restaurant) endless miles of promenade for serious runners, gentle beach-top walks or just follow the Viking Trail bike rides. A popular residential area for young families, London commuters, second home purchasers and retired couples.
