Coffee Shop Valuation Calculator
A UK coffee shop is worth its adjusted annual earnings multiplied by a factor set mainly by lease security — roughly 0.5× on a lease under three years and up to 2.8× on ten years or more.

What the calculator cannot see
A valuation model works on the numbers you give it. On a real acquisition the price is decided by things that never appear in a listing: the schedule of dilapidations attached to the lease, whether the rent review is upward-only, how much of the trade walks out with the owner, and whether the equipment has service history. We check those before an offer goes in.
