The impressive Restaurant/Bar premises sit on an elevated site which overlooks one of the most popular beaches on the Fife coast, Kinghorn Beach. The building has a gross internal area of approx. 320.3 m² (3,450 ft²), which is split over two levels, each with individual entrances.
Location
The Harbour View enjoys a prominent position in the desirable seaside location of Kinghorn.
Kinghorn retains the quality and charm of a Fife town, and features two stunning beaches and an 18 hole golf course. There is a large holiday complex, Pettycur Bay Holiday Park, which has excellent leisure facilities such as a swimming pool, amusement arcade and indoor play area.
The restaurant is well placed for access to the mainline train station, which offers regular connections to Edinburgh.
Accommodation
Ground Floor
A double door entrance leads into the Bar area, from the shared car park area lying to the north. This area is very well presented and has recently been refurbished and finished using a mixture of wood and metal materials. The use of quirky beer barrel tables with high steel stools, results in a very trendy looking bar. There is an eye catching Pool Table, along with a Darts Board & Gaming Machines for customers enjoyment. The large wooden panelled bar counter is located at the far end, which leads through to a small kitchenette and back office.
First Floor
A well-kept external stairway leads to the entrance door for the first floor, again from the same shared car park. This entrance leads into the bright, spacious restaurant area which boasts panoramic views of the stunning Pettycur beach & Fife coastline. Our clients have chosen a more rustic feel for this area, and have used romantic finishing touches such as artificial flowers, candles, fairylights and hanging hearts throughout. On a day to day basis this area is set for 56 covers, has licensed capacity for up to 100 if required for private functions such as wedding receptions or birthday parties. The Main Kitchen is on this floor, and has a good range of professional catering equipment. Service Areas Each floor benefits from Ladies & Gents toilets and additional storage cupboards.
Exterior
The Harbour View benefits from an external trading area, allowing customers to dine outside and enjoy the fantastic coastal views on sunny days.
BUSINESS
The Harbour View has quickly developed a great reputation with locals and tourists alike. Ultimately, the business is split between the floors and opening times are as follows:
Ground Floor, Bar - Mon to Sat: 11am–1am Sun: 12noon – 12 midnight
First Floor, Restaurant - Mon to Sun: 11am – XXXm (extending to 9am – XXXm during summer months)
The Restaurant’s menu currently offers a varied selection of breakfast & lunch options and has been very popular, which is apparent from online reviews on websites such as TripAdvisor and Google.
However, new owners may wish capitalise on extending the opening hours and introduce dinner options.
The business is run by a family team complimented by an array of staff, on both full time and part time basis. A staff list will be made available after a formal viewing.
The Harbour View has been owned by our clients for 2 years; however they are now keen to sell due to personal circumstances, and although still in early stages of trading; the premises hold proven potential for very high turnover and thus good profitability, under experienced and motivated operators. We highly recommend viewing this business/property, to truly appreciate what is on offer.
