Description

Alan J Picken are delighted to offer this Well-known, Popular, Bar/Night Club Business in the heart of Ripon onto the market.

Currently trading 3 days a week, operating as both a busy town-centre bar and night club, it's the ONLY late-night venue in Ripon and therefore has a monopoly on the area.

Since establishing the business, our clients have transformed the once basic premises into a truly eye-catching space, which has been fitted with high quality fixtures, fittings & equipment.

A loyal and local clientele and an excellent reputation has been established over the years, attracting those from Ripon and surrounding conurbations.

We trust this will prove a resoundingly successful acquisition, for a dedicated enthusiastic working proprietor to continue to exploit the full potential and derive maximum profits.

Currently taking circa £6,000 per week.
Excellent profits achieved.
Scope to increase sales via extended openings, the significant private hire demand, and the potential to introduce food offering.
Free of tie.

Early inspection of this genuinely fantastic opportunity is strongly recommended. It is an established, turn-key business with even more potential to expand.
