Turnkey Bakery & Café Opportunity in Berkeley

—- Asking price $168,000

Excellent opportunity to acquire a beautifully designed, fully built-out bakery and café space along University Avenue in Berkeley.

The approximately 1,158-square-foot premises feature a stylish, high-ceiling loft-style interior with exposed wood beams, brick architectural details, oversized street-facing windows, and abundant natural light. The warm, modern, and open layout creates an inviting atmosphere with excellent street visibility.

The space has been extensively improved with new finishes, equipment, plumbing, electrical work, food-preparation areas, commercial sinks, refrigeration, customer service counters, display areas, and indoor seating. The build-out was completed with permits, making this a truly turnkey, ready-to-go opportunity that can save a new operator significant construction time and costs.

The premises are currently approved under the lease for bakery use and may also be suitable for a bagel shop, bakery, coffee shop, dessert concept, café, or other compatible food-and-beverage operation, subject to landlord consent and applicable governmental approvals.
