Berkeley Gilman Turnkey Restaurant With Spacious & Central Kitchen!!!!
Business Description
Asking $118,888–$200,000 (negotiable on lease, equipment, and inventory)
Step into a restaurant that's already running, already loved, and ready for its next chapter. Tucked into Berkeley's Gilman District — the block known for wine, art, and independent spirit — this turnkey operation comes with a loyal customer base, a proven menu, and one of the most spacious commercial kitchens you'll find at this price.
The kitchen is the story here: multiple stations, professional-grade equipment, and an efficient layout built to scale. Keep the concept running as-is, relaunch with your own menu, or use the space as a central kitchen for catering, a ghost-kitchen operation, meal prep, or a multi-location brand. Few spaces this size give you that much flexibility on day one.
The location does a lot of the selling for you. You're on the Gilman Wine Block alongside Donkey & Goat, Broc Cellars, Fieldwork Brewing, and Gilman Brewing, minutes from 924 Gilman and a cluster of galleries and artist studios that's drawn coverage from the New York Times and Vogue. Whole Foods, REI, and The North Face anchor steady daily foot traffic, and monthly street fairs bring 120+ vendors and thousands of visitors right past your door. Direct I-80 access, North Berkeley BART, AC Transit's 72 line, and a genuinely walkable, bike-friendly stretch make it easy for staff and customers alike to get there.
Everything you need to open is already in place: FF&E, an assumable lease, an established customer base and community goodwill, negotiable inventory at close, and seller transition support to help you hit the ground running.
This is an active, operating business. Please do not approach or disturb staff on-site. All information is based on seller representations; for financials, lease terms, or to schedule a private tour, contact Mint Bay Area. Jenny Z. 415-886-7314
