An award-winning restaurant in a “popular and bustling market town” has been put on the market.

The restaurant represents an “extremely desirable opportunity to acquire a thriving, profitable business”.

Cornerstone Business Agents said the premises in Crieff, 17 miles west of Perth, comprise a large, bright dining room with bar and deli counter.

“The property enjoys a tremendous location being close to the main A85 thoroughfare with parking available nearby at both James Square and in the King Street car-park which is positioned directly across the road from the premises,” the agent said.

“The sellers have successfully operated their restaurant business from the premises for over 18 years, gathering many loyal customers, glowing reviews and industry awards along the way.

“Now, after changes in personal circumstances, the owner has reluctantly decided to sell the business in order to pursue other plans abroad.

“The sale offers an extremely desirable opportunity to acquire a thriving, profitable business with a highly experienced team on a truly turnkey freehold basis. Owner’s accommodation is also available separately.”

The agent said offers in excess of £475,000 are invited. The sale includes the property, fixtures, fittings, furniture, equipment and business including goodwill. The trading name Delivino is not included because of “the ongoing nature of other trading ventures sharing the same name”.

Five projects have been shortlisted for the award, bestowed annually by the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland. 

The skillful re-use of existing buildings is a noticeable theme running through the 2024 shortlist, which recognised major retrofits of the Burrell and another leading Scottish cultural institution - The Fruitmarket Gallery in Edinburgh.
