Iconic Dunedin High street cafe, Arc, is up for sale. The popular venue for 'up and coming' arts and music was put on the market late last week.

Arc Cafe has a reputation for providing vegan and vegetarian friendly food, as well as supporting emerging arts and music in the city.

Arc Cafe closed briefly last September, after the trust operating the venue ran into financial difficulties.

It reopened under new management, however the owners say they now want to explore different avenues.

They insist financial problems are not behind their decision to put Arc Cafe back on the market.

Co-owner Antony Deaker is confident the jobs of Arc's current staff remain secure and says they've received a lot of feedback already, from people interested in the cafe.
