Seconds Out at Bradford Road, Batley, was run for many years by pro-wrestler Jim Breaks. Later, it became a nightclub called China Town.

The building is being marketed by owner BP Properties Ltd with a 10-year lease set at £20,000 and rent of £400 a week.

Masood Bostan, of BP Properties, which bought the premises at auction, said the glass-fronted restaurant was ready for immediate possession after being refurbished with modern tables, chairs and LED lighting to appeal to a wide range of potential users.

The fully-equipped kitchen had been designed for any style of cuisine while the premises also included a bar fully stocked with glassware and cutlery and a basement. Outside, the restaurant has parking for eight cars.

Mr Bostan said: “It is an opportunity for anyone who wants to start their own restaurant business. Whoever takes it can get their menus printed and be open in a week.”

He said the property had been on the market for only four weeks and had already attracted interest from potential occupiers.
