A ‘popular’ coffee shop in a ‘historic’ Grade II listed building is looking for new owners.

The Bristly Hog Coffee House in Kendal is for sale on a leasehold, with an asking price of £259,995.

The business is advertised with CoGoGo, who are delighted to welcome this ‘exciting opportunity’ to the market.

The estate agent described it as a thriving fully Licensed coffee shop, located in a charming and historic Grade 2 listed building.

CoGoGo said: “The shop has recently undergone a full redecoration, ensuring a fresh, inviting atmosphere for customers.

“With seating available both inside and outside, this coffee shop has become a beloved spot for both locals and visitors.”

The ‘ample’ three floor building dates back to 1575 and was previously the site of a 19th century brush factory.

The Bristly Hog is named after the factory, who’s owners added the distinctive “bristly hog” above the door.

The property also features a two-bedroom self-contained holiday let on the upper floors.

This dog friendly establishment on Stricklandgate currently opens every day to offer locally sourced, excellent quality food, made in-house.

The independent coffee house and restaurant currently serves a wide variety of specialty teas and coffees by local roasters Rinaldo’s and Pennington’s.

It enjoys a ‘bustling’ location with ‘excellent’ footfall and is listed with an annual turnover of £297,559.
