One of Princes Avenue’s most popular cafes is up for sale - for just £65,000.
Fudge café closed some time ago but the bakery is still operating and the business is being sold as a going concern by business agent Ernest Wilson and Co.
The outlet has been put on the market as a leasehold property – meaning you will own the business for a fixed period of time but not the building.
On the agent’s website it says: “An opportunity to acquire this outstanding business situated in this prime position – absolutely bustling shopping centre with literally 1,000s and 1,000s of people passing daily and 1,000s of students all round.
“The business is run predominantly by staff and is worked in very easy hours over six days. This concern boasts an outstanding weekly turnover of £6,500 and is oozing potential for so much more.

“This is a superb business that shows excellent adjusted net profits of £55,000 and could do so much more with husband and wife team.”
Ernest Wilson and Co explains that the premises are held on a secure lease.
It says: “The premises consist of a double-glass fronted spacious café bar with open servery, seating area, well fitted commercial kitchen, disabled toilet. First floor function suite or second café / bistro area with bar. Ladies and gents toilets with wash hand basin.
“The second floor is sub-let as a hair salon and returns £5,040 per annum. Unit Two is the adjoining property which is known as the bakery and is the sandwich centre and tea rooms, offering open servery displays, seating area for approximately 15 people comfortably.

Fudge had been one of the most popular places to eat in Princes Avenue and was at the centre of the community.
It held film nights upstairs and was involved in a number of charity events.

Food hygiene ratings. What's behind numbers?
But with increased competition and receiving a fine for food hygiene breaches, trade has declined in the past couple of years.
Ernest Wilson says there is also £5,000 worth of stock and says the opportunity is very rare.
It says: “This is a commanding main road trading site. Rarely do businesses of this calibre reach the open market.”
Nearby Indian restaurant Ray's Place has also closed recently, leaving customers shocked to see it go.
