    Sergi’s Tapas Bar is situated in the south Lincolnshire market town of Spalding. The town is located 19.4 miles north of the Cambridgeshire city of Peterborough, 15.3 miles south of the Lincolnshire port town of Boston, 27.7 miles west of King’s Lynn (Norfolk) and 103 miles north of the capital city of London. The town benefits from its own train station which sits on the Peterborough to Lincoln line; regular town bus services also offer transport to the nearby towns of Wisbech, Bourne and Stamford. The nearest airport can be found 60.6 miles east at East Midlands International Airport.

    The town benefits from a variety of notable amenities and landmarks such as Springfields Outlet Shopping & Leisure, which houses over 50 ‘big name’ stores and welcomes a multitude of entertainment shows, the historic Ayscoughfee Hall, Museum and Gardens which dates back to 1451, the Gordon Boswell Romany Museum, and Chain Bridge Forge, a living museum showcasing the craft of blacksmithing. Also located within the town is a number of grammar, secondary and primary schools, convenience stores, supermarkets, independent retail outlets and fuel stations.

    Spalding sits on the banks of the River Wensum and is historically renowned for its tulip bulb production which lead to its close links with The Netherlands. The town now boasts a local population of over 30,000 residents and benefits from major employers including Bakkavor, Fowler Welch and FESA UK.

    Sergi’s Tapas Bar occupies a two storey, end terrace, brick building under a pitched tile roof, believed to date back to 1834. The property is located on Francis Street in the centre of town and enjoys a sizeable amount of passing trade.

    The Business

    Sergi’s Tapas Bar is a popular, family operated food venue which is well known for its authentic tapas menu, DJ nights and Balearic/Ibiza evenings. Having traded the venue for a number of years, our clients now wish to offer the property to the freehold market in order to retire.

    The business is currently operated by our clients with two full time and six part time staff. Opening hours are currently limited to:

    Thursday to Saturday - 12:00 to 23:00
    Sunday to Wednesday - Closed

    With this in mind, a new, hands-on owner/operator could see a rise in net profits as a consequence of increasing the trading hours.

    The year end Net Turnover for June 2023 stood at £164,132, resulting in a Net Profit of £19,451 and an Adjusted Net Profit in the region of £26,000 per annum. Further accounting detail will be made available to serious parties following a formal viewing.
