Artisan Bakery & Coffee House, Gloucester Road, Bristol

A thriving artisan bakery and coffee house on Bristol's famously independent Gloucester Road, combining a production bakery with a 24-cover café that queues out of the door at weekends. Everything is baked on site daily — sourdough, pastries and a rotating seasonal menu — with wholesale accounts supplying four local cafés and two farm shops adding a reliable B2B revenue stream (22% of turnover). Key highlights: • Turnover £385,000; net profit £71,000 with owner working the counter, not the ovens • Head baker (8 years) and team of seven remain with the business • Wholesale channel growing 30% year-on-year with zero outbound sales effort • Full production kitchen: two deck ovens, retarder-prover, spiral mixer — £85,000 replacement value • 10-year lease from 2023 at £21,600 p.a. Rare chance to acquire a genuine neighbourhood institution with both retail and wholesale engines.
