Established Bubble Tea, Ice Cream & Sweet Shop for Sale – Crowthorne High Street, Berkshire
Business Price: £24,995
Established in 2020, and currently run as a life style business. This much-loved traditional sweet shop has become a well-known part of the local community and proudly holds a 5-Star Food Hygiene Rating. Renowned for its nostalgic charm, the shop specialises in loose sweets displayed in traditional sweet jars, allowing customers to create bespoke pick-and-mix selections weighed to order.
Originally launched with a focus on traditional sweets and New Forest ice cream, the business quickly evolved to meet customer demand. In 2022, bubble tea was introduced with great success, complemented by a premium range of indulgent ice cream milkshakes. The popular "Ultimate" milkshake range, featuring flavours such as Biscoff and Oreo, has become a customer favourite and continues to generate strong repeat business.
In 2024, the business expanded into gifts and collectibles with the introduction of TY toys, which have performed exceptionally well. This success continued into 2025 with the addition of activity books, party bags, pocket-money toys and other gift lines, creating a diverse retail offering that appeals to customers of all ages.
In 2025, the business added Belgian Loose chocolates which was huge success and sell out at Christmas.
The shop has built a strong reputation for personalised gifting and unique products that are not typically available in supermarkets. Its custom labelling service is particularly popular for birthdays, corporate gifting, weddings and seasonal occasions.
Additional revenue streams include:
The business currently operates as a sole trader from its prominent High Street location in Crowthorne, Berkshire. It is next to a pharmacy and a zebra crossing in the centre of the High Street. There is also an under cover parking space.
The premises are held on a lease with just over two years remaining, providing security and continuity for a new owner. There is also an opportunity to discuss a new lease term with the landlady, offering excellent long-term potential.
This is a genuine turnkey opportunity with multiple income streams, strong local recognition, an established customer base and significant potential for future growth. It offers a rare opportunity to acquire a unique business combining bubble tea, ice cream, pick-and-mix sweets, gifts and event sales all under one roof.
Sale Includes:
The business is currently owner-operated, with support from local student staff during busy periods, weekends and school holidays such as Friday after school. This flexible staffing model helps maintain low overheads while providing additional support when required.
The current owner is happy to provide a comprehensive handover period, subject to agreement, to ensure a smooth transition for the purchaser. This can include introductions to suppliers, assistance with ordering procedures, stock management, product knowledge and day-to-day operational guidance.
The business is being sold with no debts or liabilities associated with the business, providing peace of mind for a prospective purchaser.
