Two thriving Melbourne cafes. One award-winning toastie brand. A ready-made hospitality business with serious growth potential.

Why build a cafe brand from scratch when you could take over two established venues, a recognised signature product and a business model already designed for expansion?

Meet TOAST IT! – a distinctive Melbourne hospitality brand bringing together gourmet toasties, specialty coffee and a refreshingly simple approach to cafe ownership. With two successful locations, an established customer following and a streamlined operating model, this is an exciting opportunity to acquire more than just a pair of cafes. You're buying into a brand with its own identity, proven appeal and room to grow.

And the toasties aren't just popular – they're award-winning! TOAST IT! recently took out Nova 100's Best Toastie in Melbourne competition, earning recognition on the Jase, Lauren and Clint Breakfast Show. It's the kind of publicity that helps a hospitality brand stand out, giving an incoming owner a compelling story to build on.

The winning formula is beautifully simple. Premium sourdough toasties, creative flavour combinations and barista-quality coffee form the heart of the menu, complemented by kids' options and gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan choices. A focused offering helps keep food preparation efficient, minimise waste and maintain consistency, while giving customers plenty of reasons to return.

Better still, TOAST IT! has already established a strong presence beyond its physical stores. Both venues perform well on Uber Eats, reportedly ranking within the top 20% of store sales across Australia and New Zealand. With a menu perfectly suited to takeaway and delivery, buyers can step into an established digital sales channel rather than having to build one from the ground up.

Behind the scenes, the business is equally appealing. Shared suppliers, documented recipes, established procedures and a trained team of baristas and floor staff support consistent operations across both venues. The business also comes with an established brand identity, intellectual property, equipment, fitouts and stock on hand, offering an attractive turnkey package for an incoming owner.

Whether you're an ambitious owner-operator looking to take on a larger hospitality business or an experienced group ready to add a distinctive concept to your portfolio, TOAST IT! offers an exciting opportunity to take an established Melbourne brand to its next chapter.

Two cafes. One award-winning brand. Your opportunity to make it bigger.
