    The Business

    Our clients have owned and operated Giacomo’s Ristorante Italiano since September 2013 and have developed a highly popular and well-regarded Italian restaurant. The business draws in custom from not only the surrounding towns and villages but also those visiting the area and its local attractions. It is our understanding that the business currently generates a gross turnover in the region of £15,000 per week.

    Although currently operating as an Italian restaurant, we are of the opinion that the property would well suit a range of restaurant concepts, or alternatively, conversion back into a destination food-led public house, or residential dwelling (STPP).

    No direct approach to be made to the business; please direct all communications through Sidney Phillips. Viewing strictly by appointment only.
