Business Description

This long-established breakfast and brunch restaurant delivers consistent, predictable cash flow and represents a true turnkey ownership opportunity. Generating approximately $586,786 in annual revenue and ~$140,838 in Sellers’ Discretionary Earnings (SDE), the business is supported by a loyal, multigenerational customer base and decades of proven performance. Its simple, efficient menu and steady demand create a level of stability that is increasingly rare in today’s restaurant market.

The operation is fully equipped with approximately $90,000 in FF&E, including a well-maintained commercial kitchen designed for high-volume service. With trained staff and established operating procedures in place, a new owner can step in and operate seamlessly from day one. This opportunity is well-suited for an owner-operator, first-time buyer, or investor seeking immediate cash flow.

To further enhance accessibility and support a smooth transition, the seller is offering up to $100,000 in seller financing to qualified buyers.

Growth Opportunities

There are several clear and actionable avenues to expand revenue and increase overall business value. Extending operating hours into dinner or late-night service could unlock additional daypart revenue, while adding online ordering and third-party delivery would capture demand beyond the current dine-in model. Catering services for local businesses, schools, and community events present another immediate opportunity for growth.

Additional upside exists through refreshed branding, menu innovation, and a stronger digital presence. Implementing a modern POS system, building a social media following, and launching a customer loyalty program can drive both new customer acquisition and repeat visits. These initiatives provide a clear path for a new owner to scale an already profitable foundation.

This opportunity offers a rare combination of proven cash flow, operational stability, and long-standing community goodwill. Businesses with this level of history, profitability, and turnkey infrastructure are increasingly difficult to find—especially with flexible seller financing in place.
