Beautiful Buildout | Strong Equipment Value | Great Opportunity for New Concept
Rare opportunity to take over a beautifully renovated cafe / tea shop in Astoria with major buildout and equipment already in place. This is perfect for a buyer who has their own vision and wants to save the time, money, and headache of building a brand-new store from scratch.
The current owner has spent over **$130,000 in renovations, fixtures, and equipment**, creating a clean, modern, and ready-to-use space. This is an **asset sale only**, not a business sale. No branding, recipes, training, or business financials will be included. A new buyer must bring their own concept, brand, menu, and operation.
**Business / Lease Highlights:**
✅ Located in Astoria
✅ Cafe / tea shop setup
✅ Opened in February 2025
✅ Rent: $6,100/month
✅ Annual rent increase: 3%
✅ Average electric bill: Approx. $1,300/month
✅ Current hours: 11 AM to 9 PM
✅ Over $130,000 spent on renovation, fixtures, and equipment
✅ Ideal for bubble tea, cafe, bakery, dessert shop, coffee shop, or light food concept
**Reason for Sale:**
The current owner originally opened this location as a demo / showcase store for her wholesale bakery, bread, and food-related products. Many of her vendors and clients wanted to see a physical location where her products could be displayed, tested, and presented to the public for quality and presentation purposes.
Now that the space has served its original purpose, the owner is looking to sell the assets and allow a new operator to bring their own concept into this ready-built location.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to enter Astoria with a finished cafe-style setup and avoid the heavy upfront cost of a full renovation.
📍 Location: Astoria, Queens
