Rent-free atrium hospitality space available in Adelaide’s CBD!
Got a hospitality concept you’re ready to trial in the city? Check out this old-world-meets-new gem on Light Square!
The space
This beautiful atrium cafe is located in the foyer of an airy Light Square community housing apartment with 100+ residents, offering plenty of all-day foot traffic and a diverse, engaged micro-neighbourhood! The space comes complete with a hospitality fitout including a grease trap, stone benchtop counter with tiled front, exhaust fan (no stovetop), tiled backsplash, display fridge, dishwash and handwash basins and stainless steel fridges.
The cafe offers heritage charm with modern conveniences, giving you the best of both worlds. The building features a stunning stone frontage with secure fob entry, and is equipped with 2 x reverse cycle air conditioning units. There is access to common toilets (including an accessible toilet) and an atrium with a gorgeous community-managed garden.
The location
Located on bustling Light Square, this space is right next door to ILA – this venue and surrounding public space are a hive of activity especially during key arts festivals including Illuminate and Adelaide Fringe, with Light Square slated for redesign over the coming years. The location puts you in close proximity to the student bustle of TAFE SA and Adelaide College of the Arts, as well as surrounding student accommodation, backpackers hostels and corporate offices.
Who you are
We’re seeking a hospitality operator who can bring this beautiful cafe to life by day and become part of the beating heart of this community. Do you have a cafe concept like Renew Adelaide graduates POGO Coffee Roasters or our exciting upcoming hole-in-the-wall Homeboy? Perhaps it’s a witchy teahouse like Three of Cups or you’re slinging donuts like Holy Addiction? We’d love to hear from you!
