Best Buy Tavern/Pub
Business Description
For more than a decade, this cozy tavern in the heart of New Haven’s Yale Grotto neighborhood has been a gathering place. Students, professors, and locals alike filled its 55 seats inside and spilled onto the 20-seat patio on warm evenings, and the pub thrived, bringing in nearly $800,000 a year before the world changed. Then came the pandemic. The doors closed, the lights dimmed, and the story paused. But the space didn’t fade away; it was reborn. A significant renovation brought it entirely up to code, a fully equipped kitchen, and brand-new equipment throughout. The bones of the business remained strong, waiting for someone with vision to breathe life back into it. Now, that someone could be you. This isn’t just a turnkey tavern. It’s a launchpad. With the right concept and marketing, the numbers could soar past $1 million in revenue. The neighborhood is ready, the equipment is prepared, and the stage is set. The vision is clear: this tavern can evolve from a neighborhood favorite into a landmark destination, woven into the fabric of New Haven life, a place where tradition meets innovation, and where every pint poured not only generates revenue but also fosters community. The doors are open. The lights are on. The stage is set. All that’s missing is the visionary who will step in and make it their own. You will regret missing this one call now.
