The unit comprises approximately 3,300 sq. ft. of indoor seating and covered food court space, together with a 1,400 sq. ft. outdoor courtyard, 2,200 sq. ft. of kitchen, freezer and serving areas, and an extensive 4,600 sq. ft. playground. The premises feature a combination of permanent decking and polished concrete flooring and were purpose-built in 2021.
The café provides excellent customer accommodation, with seating for approximately 110 customers internally and a further 60 externally, giving a total seating capacity of approximately 170 people. The unit benefits from generous access, including a 2.4m sliding door, a further 2.4m sliding door from the shop, and dedicated Market Street door access.
The property is well serviced, with four 18kW zonal gas heaters, a natural gas-serviced commercial kitchen and a 49kVA power supply. The unit is ideally suited to a busy café or food-led business with the capacity to accommodate significant customer numbers throughout the day.
Security is a key feature of the Dublin Road Business Park, which is fully protected by security fencing and a block wall boundary. Access to the internal road is controlled by electric cantilever gates, operating Monday to Sunday from 7am to 11pm, with telephone access available outside these hours. The entrance to the business park and several individual units are monitored 24/7 by Visiconnex. Additional rear access to the unit is provided via an electric cantilever gate operated by FOB or telephone.
On-site facilities include approximately 180 car parking spaces at SOLAS Eco Garden Shop, as well as an on-site café open daily. The business park is currently thriving and benefits from 100% occupancy, providing an established commercial environment and strong passing trade potential.
The property is available at a rent of €40,000 per annum, offering an excellent opportunity to secure a substantial, purpose-built café and hospitality unit in an established business park with extensive customer facilities, parking and outdoor space.
Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the scale, specification and potential of this exceptional commercial opportunity.
