Cafe Verditer has been a fixture of the local community for over a decade, serving freshly prepared breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and drinks seven days a week. Since taking ownership in 2017, the previous owner worked hard to build on the cafe’s strong foundations, maintaining consistently high standards and cultivating a loyal base of regular customers.
The cafe also benefited from strong passing trade thanks to its prime high street position, and its positive reputation across Google, TripAdvisor, and Facebook reflects the quality and consistency of what it offered. A professionally maintained website further supported its visibility in the local area.
Why Weybridge Works
Location has always been one of Cafe Verditer’s greatest strengths. Situated within a busy parade of shops and offices, it enjoys excellent footfall and sits alongside a mix of independent retailers and well-known brands. Easy access via the M25 and M3, combined with convenient nearby parking, has helped to sustain its appeal over the years.
A Turnkey Operation Ready to Go
The cafe operates from a spacious mid-terraced property with a fully glazed frontage, prominent branding, and an inviting patio seating area. Inside, there is seating for 24 customers, a well-equipped commercial kitchen, ample storage, and all the customer amenities you would expect. The premises are finished to a high standard throughout, meaning the new owners could step straight in with minimal additional investment.
The business is held on a Full Repair and Insure lease, with a ten-year term commencing in 2018 and a competitive weekly rent. It also benefited from Small Business Rates Relief, which added further to its financial appeal.
Growth Potential Built In
The previous owner chose to sell in order to focus on other business interests, creating a genuine opportunity for a new owner-operator to take things forward. There is clear scope for growth through extended opening hours, a stronger marketing presence, and the introduction of delivery or outside catering services.
