BusinessPlease quote reference B07042
CoGoGo are pleased to have been given the opportunity to manage the sale of Pablo's Restaurant, which is a well-established Cafe/Coffee Shop/Restaurant with a renowned reputation amongst local residents. This is a superb opportunity to take on a popular, profitable and well-used local business in an area teeming with customers.
There has been a food-based business at this site for many years. The current owner has been running it as Pablo's Restaurant for the last twenty years, and the business has been a real labour of love for her, accruing an impressive number of regular customers and an unrivalled reputation.
This wonderful business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart, only due to personal circumstances. The vendor is keen to see her beloved coffee shop cum restaurant pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner(s) who can take this already thriving business to the next level.
The business offers a varied menu with its meals being lovingly and carefully prepared on the premises using local ingredients and seasonal products wherever possible. A sample menu includes;
- Hot and Cold drinks
- Salads (and Super Salads)
- Main Courses
- Hot Snacks
- All Day Breakfast
- Curries
- Omelettes
- Fresh Sandwiches
- Desserts
- Daily Specials
- Afternoon Teas
- Homemade cakes and biscuits
- Grilled fresh fish
The sale will include the company's Facebook page, and the business enjoys great visibility on the internet, along with impressive reviews such as;
- “Lovely home-cooked food. We had the Lamb Henry and Steak & Kidney Pud followed by a gorgeous homemade custard tart and knickerbocker Glory. Great prompt service and reasonably priced. Recommended"
- “Lovely and friendly waitress, made to feel welcome, food was lovely, menu had a good selection of meals, food was hot, definitely will come back next year if on holiday in Blackpool. A big thank you to all the staff"
- “My favourite restaurant in Fleetwood with a refreshingly unusual choice of mains including black pudding and mustard sauce, liver and onions, corned beef hash, there were fresh fish options on the specials blackboard. The desserts looked homemade and were gorgeous"
Scope to Improve:
- Advertising and marketing capacity
- Maximise the use of social media, particularly Twitter and Instagram
- Website ideally with an online ordering system
- Introduce a customer loyalty card/scheme
- Extend the opening hours, perhaps opening as a Bistro in the evenings or doing roast dinners on a Sunday
- Introduce a delivery service with the likes of Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats, etc
- Use the living accommodation as an Airbnb - there is a great demand in the area, and this would offer an additional lucrative income stream
- A well-established business with an enviable reputation and many existing loyal customers
- All fixtures and fittings included, making this a real turnkey business opportunity
- Ideal as an owner-managed or partnership business
- A real opportunity to increase turnover and profits significantly, especially if the living accommodation is run as a holiday let business
- The current owner is happy to offer a handover to ensure the continued success
- Includes generous living accommodation or letting rooms
Location
Pablo's Restaurant is located in Fleetwood.
Fleetwood is a coastal town in the Borough of Wyre in Lancashire. It had a population of 25,939 at the 2011 census. Fleetwood is located on the Fylde Peninsula, 8 miles north of Blackpool and lies at the end of the Blackpool Tramway.
Fleetwood is a beautiful, Victorian seaside resort boasting a stunning promenade, Art Deco Theatre, a beautiful harbour yacht marina set by a discount shopping village, traditional shops and the famous Fleetwood Market with its 200 stalls.
Having undergone recent regeneration used to improve buildings, upgrade facilities and encourage business in the town, Fleetwood is now at the forefront of being the perfect holiday destination.
Pablo's Restaurant occupies a prominent position in the centre of the town and is presented to the highest standards with clear visible signage and distinctive livery. There is free on-street parking immediately outside the premises, and there are a number of inexpensive public car parks within easy walking distance.

Pablo's Restaurant is situated in an impressive and substantial period-style property that needs to be seen to be appreciated. The business and premises are beautifully presented and maintained, and briefly comprise;
Restaurant - Windows and a glazed door to the front create a light, airy, and inviting interior. The inset porch features generous seating areas with carpet flooring, wood panelling to dado height, pendant lighting, a feature beamed ceiling, chalked menu boards, nice-quality tables and chairs, and a glass serving counter.
Kitchen - Comprehensively equipped catering kitchen, generously proportioned, tiled floor, fluorescent lighting, coffee machine and grinder, stainless steel electric urn, range of base units with complimentary work tops, stainless steel preparation tables, 2 range cookers, full extraction system with stainless steel canopy, twin stainless steel under counter fridges, upright freezer, 3 x microwave ovens, twin deep stainless steel sinks and drainers, preparation fridges, commercial dish washer, perimeter shelving, stand mixer, hot cupboard, twin compartment under counter fridge.
On the first floor are 4 good-sized double bedrooms that offer potential as Bed & Breakfast accommodation or Airbnb potential.

Financial Profile
We are advised that, as per the 2025/26 accounts, the business generated a profitable turnover in the region of £95,000. Further financial information can be made available upon request.
Currently operating for just 24 hours per week, opening between 9 am and 2 pm 5 days a week, and closing for 5 weeks annually, this business presents an outstanding opportunity for growth. By extending the opening hours as a licenced restaurant or bar and consistent year-round operation, there is significant potential for expansion. Profitability could further be increased by using the living accommodation as B&B/AirBNB - there is a great demand in the area, and this would offer an additional lucrative income stream.
