Price Based On Asset Value | High Foot Traffic | Needs an Owner-Operator
This is not a turnkey profit machine-but it could be with the right operator.
Located on busy Pittwater Road in the heart of Dee Why, this well-presented café offers a rare opportunity to take over a fully fitted, operational venue in a thriving beachside suburb-at a fraction of the setup cost.
The current owner is completely hands-off due to other work commitments, and the business is underperforming as a result. Staff are running the show with minimal oversight, and it shows in the numbers. But the bones are strong, the customer base is loyal, and the location is outstanding.
Why This Is a Smart Buy:
*Busy Main Road Location - High visibility, consistent foot traffic, and just minutes from the beach
*Low-Overhead Operation - Currently run with three casual staff and no chef required
*Ideal for Hands-On Ownership - Minimal staffing and a straightforward, easy-to-manage setup
*Simple, Popular Menu - Premium coffee, breakfast rolls, toasties, almond croissants, cookies, and more
*Modern Fit-Out - Recently refreshed, seating for 4 inside and 10 outside
*Solid Equipment - Well-maintained with recent upgrades included in the sale
*Long Lease - Until August 2026 with a 5+5 option available
Not Profitable-But Priced Accordingly:
This business is being sold on asset value only. There are no full financials available, and it is not suitable for buyers seeking third-party finance or profit guarantees.
Top-line weekly sales can be provided as a guide, but this is a purchase for someone who understands how to assess potential, manage costs, and build value.
If you're expecting a highly profitable café for $60K, this isn't it.
But if you're a hospitality operator who knows how to run lean, build trade, and lead a team-this is your chance to secure a great space in a premium location for well below setup cost.
Past Performance & Growth Potential:
Under previous ownership, turnover was in the $8K-$9K/week range. With a hands-on operator, a return to those levels is absolutely within reach.
Growth opportunities include:
*Extending trading hours to capture early commuters and afternoon trade
*Reactivating delivery platforms (Uber Eats/Doordash) - existing listing has a 4.9-star rating
*Refreshing the menu with vegan, GF, or seasonal items
*Marketing - This café has done next to none. A basic local strategy, loyalty program, and active socials could deliver quick wins
Ideal For:
*Owner-operators looking for a low-cost entry into the Northern Beaches market
*Buyers who can see through the numbers and focus on potential
*Hospitality professionals ready to turn underperformance into profit
*Anyone looking for a manageable business that doesn't require a chef-run kitchen
