Dark Kitchen & Multi Cuisine Dine In Takeaway Restaurant – Birkenhead, Merseyside

The business is sold without the brands; however, the brands can be included by negotiation.

A rare opportunity to acquire a well-established multi-cuisine dark kitchen and dine-in takeaway business located in Birkenhead, Merseyside.

The business has been successfully trading for approximately two years and currently operates between 4:00pm and 10:00pm, generating a strong annual turnover of circa £364,000. The premises are fully fitted and prepared for breakfast and lunch services, which have not yet been introduced, offering immediate scope to increase trading hours and significantly grow revenue.

Business Overview

The venue currently operates three food brands, with Wok & Go as the main brand, supported by two dark kitchen concepts: Burger Laboratory and Greek Street Eats.
The business is sold without the brands, however the brands can be included by negotiation.

At present, the unit is not open to the public for full dine-in service and trades limited hours due to other commitments and the directors choosing to pursue alternative routes. This creates huge potential for a new owner to extend opening hours from morning through to night, with or without walk-in trade.

Premises

The restaurant occupies a substantial property, comprising:

Spacious ground floor kitchen and dining/takeaway area

Five McDonald’s-style 32-inch touchscreen ordering kiosks, installed and ready for public use

Large cellar providing excellent storage capacity

Restricted alcohol licence in place

The property also includes an upstairs residential flat, currently rented at £700 per calendar month, contributing towards running costs.

In addition, the bar area is rented to Desserted Island Ltd. Both the flat and bar area are outside of contract, meaning agreements can be renewed or tenants asked to vacate, providing flexibility for future use.

Key Features

Fully fitted and equipped commercial kitchen

All fixtures, fittings, kitchenware, and cutlery included

Multi-cuisine, flexible operating model

Fully staffed operation

Hot food takeaway consent in place

Financial & Lease Details

Asking Price: £30,000 (leasehold)

Annual Rent: £15,996

Turnover: Circa £364,000 per annum

Reason for Sale

The business is offered for sale due to the owners pursuing alternative business interests.

This is a turnkey opportunity, ideal for a new owner-operator, experienced restaurateur, or investor seeking to expand their portfolio. With strong existing turnover, untapped daytime trading, brand flexibility, and additional residential income, this business represents an excellent investment opportunity in the food and takeaway sector.

Rental Option

As an alternative to an outright purchase, the owners are open to offering the business on a rental basis at £1,500 per week, with all bills included.

This presents an excellent opportunity for an experienced operator or entrepreneur to take over a fully fitted and operational multi-cuisine kitchen with minimal upfront costs and no ongoing overhead concerns.

Under this arrangement, the incoming operator would benefit from:

• Immediate trading capability with existing setup and infrastructure
• Fully equipped commercial kitchen and ordering systems
• Established delivery platform presence
• Existing staff structure (subject to agreement)
• All-inclusive running costs, removing the burden of rent, utilities, and standard overhead expenses

This model is ideal for those looking to:

• Operate a high-turnover food business without significant capital investment
• Test and scale a concept before committing to purchase
• Expand an existing food business into a new area with reduced financial risk

Terms of the rental agreement, including inclusion of existing brands, staffing, stock, and detailed scope of included costs, can be discussed and agreed by negotiation.
