About this business
A Sophisticated Restaurant & Wine Bar in Aberdeen
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly regarded wine bar, dining venue and cultural destination in the heart of Aberdeen.
Set within a beautifully restored 18th-century Georgian townhouse, this distinctive business combines a stylish wine bar, seasonal dining, cocktail lounge and creative events space. The venue has quickly built a strong reputation for curated wine experiences, private events and art exhibitions, creating a destination that stands apart within Aberdeen’s hospitality scene.
The business has grown organically since launch and is recognised as one of Aberdeenshire’s top-rated hospitality venues on Google. Impressively, this success has been achieved without any paid advertising, relying instead on word-of-mouth recommendations, repeat customers and strong organic engagement on social media.
Following a recent expansion, the business is projected to achieve a first-year turnover of approximately £400,000. The current owner is selling their 100% shareholding in order to focus on other ventures, offering buyers a fully operational and established hospitality business with excellent growth potential.
Premises & Layout
The venue operates across four floors, providing multiple revenue streams and flexible event space:
Ground Floor: 32-cover wine bar and restaurant serving seasonal dishes paired with a carefully curated wine list
Basement: Cocktail bar with snug seating area for approximately 30–40 guests
Second Floor: Private dining and event space accommodating up to 40 seated guests or 70 standing, with a fully equipped kitchen
Outdoor Space: Heated beer garden with seating for 20–30 guests
Events & Revenue Streams
The venue has become particularly popular for private events including:
Weddings and receptions
Hen parties and celebrations
Wine tastings and curated dining experiences
Art exhibitions and creative showcases
Open mic and live performance evenings
Its stylish interiors and historic character also make it a highly photogenic venue, which naturally encourages customer-generated social media promotion.
Location & Customer Base
Ideally positioned between two of Aberdeen’s key cultural districts, the business benefits from excellent visibility, nearby parking and strong footfall. The venue attracts a loyal customer base, particularly women aged 24–44 seeking high-quality social and dining experiences.
Growth Opportunities
There is significant potential for further development, including:
Introducing structured marketing campaigns
Expanding corporate and private event bookings
Developing wine tasting memberships or ticketed events
Increasing daytime or weekend trading
Transition
The current owner is happy to provide a structured handover period to ensure a smooth transition for the new owner.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful hospitality venue with a strong reputation, multiple income streams and clear scope for growth in one of Scotland’s most historic cities.
