This is a rare entry opportunity in one of Merrick’s most desirable retail corridors.
Located at 2165 Merrick Avenue, this 855 SF restaurant space is substantially built out with core infrastructure completed, dramatically reducing both timeline and startup risk for the next operator.
This is not a concept sale.
It is a time and capital advantage.
Significant mechanical and structural components are already in place, allowing a buyer to focus on branding, equipment selection, and launch execution rather than months of construction and permitting.
Estimated remaining work: $15,000–$25,000
Comparable new restaurant build in Nassau County: $200,000+ and 6–9 months to complete.
Key infrastructure completed includes:
• Commercial hood system installed, pending final tag
• Upgraded electrical panels and wiring
• Rough plumbing
• HVAC ductwork
• Prep stations and sinks
• Quartz countertops and custom millwork
• LED lighting
• Finished flooring
Lease: $2,800/month Triple Net
Term: Flexible 5+5 or 10+5 available
Positioned below prevailing Nassau County retail rates.
Location advantages:
• Approximately 3-minute walk to Merrick LIRR
• Strong daily vehicle traffic
• High-income suburban demographic
• Established and active retail corridor
Ideal for café, fast casual, dessert concept, QSR, or takeout-focused model.
Ownership is reallocating capital and relocating, creating a compelling opportunity for the next operator to complete and open efficiently.
Priced at $98,000 for a decisive sale.
Proof of funds required prior to detailed lease and documentation review.
