THE Business for Sale Marketplace

Established “country” full-service gourmet restaurant offers quality “fabulous food in a casual and friendly environment”, and has a two-bedroom owner’s apartment and satellite summer tourist focused Gourmet Deli Shop and Wine Shop that overlook Lake Champlain. A year-around business, it has exciting yet reasonable lunches, dinners, fine wines and catering. The restaurant is in a charming town in the northeast part of a tourist-special County in Upstate New York. Opened in 2004, the restaurant is near population centers of Plattsburgh, Burlington and the famous recreation areas of The Adirondacks, and the beauties and marinas of Lake Champlain. It serves numerous summer vacation visitors who come for its rural delights, and tourists who frequent the area’s scenic attractions.
The business is an established local landmark, growing, with comfortable cash based profit and sales. The demographics, location, business size and lifestyle amenities are all favorable to a very successful owner-operated full service restaurant that has good, congenial visibility for seasonal visitors and travelers. The summer shops offer an incremental profit potential. The facility is essentially new, and the staff is loyal, experienced and stable. There is potential for merely summer opening by someone wanting a seasonal business “near the lake”. This is a reasonably priced successful starter facility for a recent culinary grad or chef looking to step out on his own, and offers on-premises living “for free” in an area where lifestyle amenities abound.
