Chai Baby!, our unique, fabulous & highly regarded 7 y.o. shop/cafe business is up for sale, for no other reason than we want to try our hand at something else. Chai Baby! is unique in the sense that it operates as a cafe but is full of many fascinating items for sale. People love it. While their food is being prepared they browse and more often than not, after their meal, they shop. Quite often before they eat!
We have developed Chai Baby! from scratch into a colourful, fun & happy place in which to spend time. We have an on premises liquor license which allows scope for expansion to bar service. Our food is tasty, fresh & reasonably priced. Chai tea is our specialty but all hot drinks are catered for!! Income is split 30/70 between food and retail with enormous growth potential in both areas - if desired.
This is a great business for a couple of friendly people with flair and vision.Two of us run Chai Baby!, 5 days a week (Wed. - Sun.) from 10 - 5 and occasionally we have an extra body helping out on weekends. Should a new owner decide to dispense with the meals & just concentrate on retail, then, one person could easily handle this business. The building is an old Federation house (5 rooms) sitting on a quarter acre of land in one of Kyneton’s main streets. The house has an added shop front, as well as a large one bedroom flat at the back. Live on the premises if you wish!!!
Added to all this is a lovely old vintage garage/shed currently operating as a weekend trash & treasure outlet. The grounds include a front courtyard with verandah, comfortably seating anywhere up to 20 people. The back and side yards are spacious and well planted with trees & roses. The side yard is brick paved and has operated as another of our cafe courtyards in the past. There is huge scope to develop this space. A pair of french doors lead from the shop to this area. Generous on site parking and ample street parking is available.
Chai Baby! is a favourite of locals, who provide approx. 75% of our business. Many of our out of town visitors are repeat customers. They keep returning for the good food & the interesting, well priced items we sell. Our stock is extensive and includes tea, tea paraphernalia, scarves, bags, hats, jewellery (new & vintage), Japanese items of interest, artworks and lots more fascinating eclectica - stuff! Incidentally, we specialize in Lea Stein and Marie Christie Pavone jewellery and stock extensive ranges.
All up, our little business is very solid but more importantly, it’s an enormously satisfying place to spend time and make your living from. If you’re looking for a lifestyle change in a lovely country town with excellent train service, hospital & in a thriving tourist belt, all only 55 minutes up the freeway from Melbourne, then you should consider Chai Baby! as your next positive endeavour. You won’t be disappointed.
