Boutique Bar and Eatery – Rare Tavern Licence!

Your chance to create something truly special

Immaculate, stylish, and full of potential, this boutique hospitality gem is perfectly positioned for a hands-on owner with a real passion for people and service.

This isn’t just a bar and eatery—it’s a community favourite. Think warm lighting, chic interiors, and an effortlessly intimate vibe that makes guests feel like they’ve stepped into their own private club. With a beautifully executed fit-out and a highly coveted tavern liquor licence, this is the kind of opportunity that rarely hits the market.

Currently operating evenings only (Tuesday to Sunday), the venue has carved out a loyal following among locals and professionals seeking something more refined—without the pretension.

It plays host to a number of events and private functions, all of which contribute to a strong base and open exciting doors for expansion.

The Opportunity

The business generates around $8,000 per week (incl. GST) with minimal staffing and tight cost control. But it’s what hasn’t been tapped into that makes this so exciting:

• Lunch trade? Untouched.
• Weekend brunch? Waiting.
• Takeaway or catering? Virtually non-existent.
• Daytime events or corporate functions? Ready and waiting.

There is a real opportunity here to evolve the offering and extend trading hours. Locals are even asking for Italian nights—so the demand is there. The layout, licence, and location mean you can pivot in whatever direction your passion takes you—cocktail lounge, wine bar, gastro pub—the canvas is yours.

Why You’ll Love This

• Fully licensed (tavern licence – a rare and valuable asset)
• Upmarket, turn-key fitout – no spend required
• Alcohol accounts for ~75% of revenue
• High average spend per customer (~$80)
• Smart POS and lean operating model
• Excellent parking and accessibility
• Located in a high-income catchment

Who Will Buy This?

A people person. Someone who knows the magic is in the detail—smiling staff, quality wine, warm ambience. This is the perfect platform for a couple or experienced operator looking to embed themselves in a thriving neighbourhood and build something they can call their own.

Rare. Elegant. Brimming with potential.
Opportunities like this don’t come along often. If you’re ready to create a standout venue with character, charm, and community at its core—this could be the one.
