Avner’s Surry Hills – Fully Fitted Bakery & Café | 200sqm

Description

Avner’s is offered for sale following closure for personal reasons. On this rare occasion, discretion is not required, and the opportunity is presented openly.

This offering represents a high-quality, asset-backed hospitality opportunity in one of Surry Hills’ most tightly held café and bakery pockets. The sale is underpinned by substantial plant and equipment, approved bakery and retail use, a secure lease, and proven historical trade.

The premises total approximately 200 sqm across two levels, a rare inner-city footprint. The ground floor is purpose-designed for high-volume retail trade, while the upper level provides flexibility for additional dining, production support, office, or operational use.

The site is fully fitted and production-ready, including commercial extraction, grease trap, multi-deck oven, mixers, refrigeration, proofing equipment and supporting infrastructure. This materially reduces capital outlay and allows an experienced operator to recommence trading with speed.

Prior to closure, the business consistently achieved approximately $27,000 per week in gross turnover, with around 30kg of coffee per week, clearly demonstrating the strength of the location, layout and customer demand when operational.

A secure 5 + 5 year lease, currently in the initial term, provides long-term tenure and confidence for incoming operators.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a proven inner-city bakery / café site with real infrastructure already in place, ideally suited to experienced operators, bakery groups, or café owners looking to expand into a flagship location.

Hospitality Consultant and Licensed Business Broker (NSW) @ GSE Hospitality Brokers

With over 25 years in the hospitality industry, I bring a rare mix of high-level strategy and real-world grit to my consulting work. I am Michelin-trained and battle-tested in both the UK and Australian markets, and I have opened, rebranded, or grown more than 25 venues across cafes, restaurants, bars, clubs, and large-scale catering operations.

I have worked on concept-to-launch projects for some of the UK’s most respected hospitality groups, sharpening my ability to turn big ideas into commercially successful, fully operational venues. I now bring that same sharp eye for feasibility and execution to independent businesses.

Before joining GSE, I was the operations manager for a global hospitality group, overseeing a $50M portfolio. I’ve led high-performing teams, fixed broken systems, and helped countless owner-operators avoid burnout while building sustainable businesses. Whether it’s improving margins, designing better rosters, preparing for exit, or navigating a lease negotiation, I cut through the noise with a practical, founder-first approach.

My sweet spot? Helping independent operators turn chaos into clarity – then profit.

Recent consulting clients have seen dramatic shifts: one business went from under $400K in valuation to a $995K listing after just three months of my coaching. Others have uncovered six-figure savings through operational reviews alone – no revenue growth required.

I’m not a theorist or a cheerleader. I’m a strategist, fixer, and coach who knows what it takes because I’ve done it myself.”
