From exquisite antipasti to sumptuous pasta and carne dishes, each presentation exudes honesty and quiet confidence...a visit here is an absolute must."
Nestled on Woodstock Road, a bustling artery connecting Albertridge Road to the A55, the establishment benefits from excellent transport links across the city. Located just over a mile from the city centre and within walking distance of Ormeau Park, it offers both convenience and accessibility for patrons. Belfast is a thriving, modern city that offers a high quality of life and is increasingly becoming a top destination for tourists. Compared to larger cities in England, Belfast boasts lower living costs, with no water charges or medical prescription fees. This makes it an attractive option for both residents and visitors alike, providing affordability without compromising on amenities and services.
The proprietors are now embarking on retirement, aiming to pass on the legacy of their revered establishment. Audited accounts will be provided for review upon property viewing and expression of interest.
This opportunity is perfect for entrepreneurs in the food and beverage industry or those seeking a turnkey business with an established foothold in the market.
The business premises encompass a three-story retail unit located on Woodstock Road, featuring a glazed shopfront and roller shutters for added security. The unit boasts a well-appointed interior with tiled flooring, painted walls, and a suspended ceiling equipped with recessed LED lighting.

Implementing a coordinated content strategy across web, mobile, and social media platforms would greatly benefit the business. Despite the success across the business's Facebook account (2.6K Facebook followers), a targeted marketing campaign that combines traditional and digital methods would further enhance the company's reach and impact.
There is the opportunity to extend operational times and to open on Sundays and/or Mondays.
