Uppingham Road, Leicester LE5 Property to rent - £1,167 pcm (£269 pw)

This is a fantastic opportunity to take over a well-established café business located on the busy and popular Uppingham Road in Leicester. Uppingham Road is a thriving commercial route, connecting Leicester city centre with the suburbs and outer areas. The road benefits from high footfall, excellent visibility, and a strong local community presence. With plenty of passing trade, nearby businesses, and residential properties, it’s a prime location for any food or drink venture to flourish.

The café is already operating successfully and is well-presented, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere. Inside, the décor combines modern and natural elements, with wooden panel finishes, industrial-style lighting, and leather booth seating giving it a contemporary yet cosy feel. There’s a large glass display counter ideal for cakes, snacks, or gelato, and a well-equipped coffee and drink service area featuring fridges, menu boards, and ample storage.

To the rear of the café, there is a spacious and fully equipped commercial kitchen with extraction, preparation areas, ovens, fryers, sinks, and shelving. Everything is ready for continued trading with minimal investment. Additional seating is available in a more private dining area, perfect for group bookings or overflow during busy periods. The layout also includes a front customer seating section with window views to the bustling main road - ideal for attracting walk-ins.

Externally, the business enjoys a prominent shopfront with clear signage and branding, set among a busy parade of shops including a fish and chip takeaway, estate agents, and local convenience stores. There is free on-street parking nearby and a visible presence from both directions on this popular road.

The current lease runs until 2028, giving a solid foundation for a new owner to take over and grow the business. There is also scope for negotiating a new lease once the existing agreement expires, offering future security and flexibility.

All financial details and turnover figures are available upon viewing and can be discussed directly with the current owner. This is an ideal opportunity for someone looking to step into a turnkey café business in one of Leicester’s most active and visible commercial locations.
