About this business

Beloved Board Game Cafe in Birmingham

Starling Corporate is delighted to present an exciting opportunity to acquire a thriving and contemporary board game café situated in a vibrant and well-connected suburb of Birmingham.

The business has established itself as a popular social and entertainment destination, offering customers a unique experience centred around tabletop gaming, events, and community engagement. The venue features an extensive board game library valued at over £5,000, alongside additional attractions including a virtual pinball machine and a versatile 3-in-1 gaming table, creating a distinctive and appealing customer proposition.

Under the current ownership, the business has undergone a successful transformation through the implementation of a refreshed commercial strategy. Key initiatives have included the introduction of a simplified membership model, the launch of highly successful bottomless brunch events, and the development of strategic partnerships that have significantly broadened the customer base and increased engagement.

The café operates from well-presented leased premises in a prime location, benefiting from strong footfall generated by its proximity to the University of Birmingham, surrounding residential communities, and a busy retail park. The business enjoys an excellent local reputation and has cultivated a loyal and growing customer following.

Financially, the business demonstrates strong performance, generating annual turnover of approximately £80,000 and an Adjusted EBITDA of £40,000, highlighting its attractive profitability and efficient operating model.

Growth Opportunities

There remains considerable scope for further expansion, including:

Extending opening hours to capture additional daytime trade

Expanding the programme of themed events, tournaments, and social gatherings

Developing the retail offering through increased sales of board games, accessories, and merchandise

Strengthening digital marketing and community engagement initiatives

Building on existing partnerships and creating new corporate, educational, and community relationships

These opportunities provide a clear pathway for a new owner to increase revenues while leveraging the strong foundations already established.

The business represents an ideal acquisition for an owner-operator, gaming enthusiast, hospitality entrepreneur, or investor seeking a profitable enterprise with a loyal customer base, strong community presence, and significant future growth potential.

Offers are invited, and early enquiries are strongly encouraged.
