I am very seriously considering purchasing an existing cafe/sandwich shop. I would like to ask a million questions of someone who has actually run a food service business.

Has anyone here done this on any scale. large or small??

I was assistant F&B Director at Snowbird Resort (11 restaurants). It has been at least 30 years since I worked in food service, so I may not be a good resource, but happy to help if I can

I was a baker for a year. Nice work if you like the graveyard shift.
