$40K Price Drop Coffee Shop, High Traffic Location
Business Description
High-Traffic Seattle Coffee Shop – Corner Location | Low Rent | 10+ Years Established
Excellent opportunity to acquire a well-established coffee shop in a prime Seattle location. Situated on the corner of two busy streets, the café benefits from outstanding visibility with large windows and constant foot and vehicle traffic. This shop has been serving the neighborhood for more than 10 years, building a loyal local customer base.
The surrounding area features numerous apartment buildings and strong anchor businesses, keeping the neighborhood active throughout the day and evening. This steady flow of residents, workers, and visitors provides consistent customer traffic and strong sales potential.
Another major advantage is the very affordable monthly lease of under $3,000, with significant time remaining on the lease, allowing a new owner to continue operating in this desirable location for years to come.
The café is approximately 928 square feet and offers 47 indoor seats plus 20 additional outdoor seats, creating a welcoming environment for customers to relax, meet, or work while enjoying coffee and light meals.
Currently, the business is absentee-owned, which presents an opportunity for a new owner-operator to increase profitability through hands-on management, improved customer service, and reduced labor costs.
The menu is simple and easy to manage, featuring coffee beverages, sandwiches, and paninis prepared in-house, while pastries and baked goods are sourced from outside vendors. This streamlined concept makes the business relatively easy to operate and suitable even for buyers without extensive restaurant experience.
The shop currently closes daily at 3 PM, leaving significant potential for expanded hours and additional revenue from afternoon and evening customers in this busy neighborhood.
This opportunity may also qualify for an E-2 investor visa, making it attractive for international buyers seeking a U.S. business investment.
Please note that the current business name and website are not included in the sale. However, with this prime location, strong customer traffic, and established setup, a new owner can easily rebrand and continue generating strong sales.
This is a rare opportunity to own a coffee shop in a high-demand Seattle location with excellent growth potential.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- Not much competition close by.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Seller is an absentee owner, so an owner operator here would definitely be making more bank deposits (more profits). Another can’t-miss money idea is to extend the operating hours, as this café closes every day at 3 PM. This street location is so busy that there are undoubtedly sales being left outside this front door every day after 3 PM.
